ABC News: US
Edwin Lopez-Cornejo, 41, had been held at Delaney Hall in Newark after being arrested June 18, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
“I have visited the facility myself and witnessed these conditions firsthand, so I say this plainly: Delaney Hall must be closed immediately and permanently.”
The death is the second at Delaney Hall since the beginning of President Donald Trump's second term, according to tracking by The Associated Press.
People held at the Newark facility have asked for improved living conditions and better medical care, as they say some are being denied medication.
“Every effort to block oversight raises serious questions about what is happening inside Delaney Hall and what those operating the facility are trying to hide.”
