Human rights abuses[edit | edit source]
ICE forcibly sterilized immigrant women in Ocilla, Georgia in 2020.[1] This action falls under the United Nations definition of genocide.[2]
Immigrants are routinely held in freezing cells for days. People in these cells did not have access to showers or soap for handwashing.[3]
ICE tested experimental drugs on children at Shiloh Treatment Center in Texas in 2018. The experiments were conducted without their parents' consent.[4]
Two Guatemalan children died in New Mexico in 2018 while being imprisoned by ICE.[5]
Starting in January 2025, Trump began a campaign of mass deportations, which saw (among other things) ICE agents detaining legal immigrants who broke no US law,[6][7] indigenous people of the Navajo and other nations facing ICE raids,[8] and public schools being raided by US agents.[9]
