Senator Jon Ossoff's investigations into the treatment of women in ICE custody revealed alarming instances of human rights abuses. In 2024, another investigation presented shocking findings of abuse against pregnant women, citing 510 credible instances, 14 specifically related to their treatment. Inadequate medical care, denial of urgent services, and poor living conditions were highlighted. A particularly disturbing case involved a woman who bled for days before miscarrying and experienced delays in medical attention after her ordeal. Reports from Georgia detention facilities confirmed patterns of mistreatment against detainees seeking medical help.
In just the last month, there have been 510 credible instances of human rights abuses in ICE facilities, including 14 specifically related to the mistreatment of pregnant women.
One woman, after bleeding heavily for over a week, miscarried upon being taken to the hospital before being returned to ICE custody shortly after.
