Another man who was detained with him “said he saw guards choking Lunas Campos and heard Lunas Campos repeatedly saying, ‘No puedo respirar’ - Spanish for ‘I can't breathe.’ Medical staff tried to resuscitate him for an hour, after which they took his body away …”
🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide.
He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

To the people out of state who keep saying “why won’t the local cops stop ICE” you need to understand that ICE is overwhelmingly the largest force on the ground in Minneapolis. They outnumber Minneapolis cops four to one. They’re more likely to stop the cops than the other way around
