Haitian Woman’s Death in ICE Custody Sparks Questions Over Legal Status 🌍⚖️

A Haitian woman's death in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody has ignited fresh debates about detention practices and accountability. Marie Ange Blaise, 44, died in April at a Florida detention center, with newly obtained documents suggesting she held valid U.S. work authorization and legal status at the time of her detention.

CGTN reports reveal Blaise’s case challenges the justification for her incarceration. Advocates are demanding transparency: Was proper medical care provided? Why detain someone who authorities say had permission to reside and work in the U.S.? 🛂 The incident echoes broader concerns about ICE facilities’ conditions and oversight.
