The US immigration detention facilities, such as Fort Bliss, have been documented to involve systemic abuse, including beatings and medical neglect.

Human Rights Watch and the ACLU documented beatings, medical neglect, and a death ruled a homicide inside Fort Bliss, the largest US immigration detention site. Read the report: https://www.hrw.org/report/2026/07/15/youre-only-getting-out-deported-or-dead/abusive-us-immigration-detention-at-ft

Human Rights Watch and the ACLU spent eight months investigating Camp East Montana at Fort Bliss, the largest immigration detention facility in US history. They interviewed 80 people. 64 said they were beaten or saw others beaten, and more than 60 were denied or delayed medication. In January, a 55-year-old Cuban man died at the facility, and the medical examiner ruled his death a homicide. Last week I hosted Human Rights Watch to discuss exactly this trend. https://www.hrw.org/report/2026/07/15/youre-only-getting-out-deported-or-dead/abusive-us-immigration-detention-at-ft
