Death in Federal Custody at Delaney Hall | Newark News

A 39-year-old immigrant father of a 12-year-old died in federal custody at Newark’s Delaney Hall — a facility notorious for its troubled history and now under fire for alleged medical neglect. Despite holding a valid work permit and suffering from chronic conditions, he was reportedly denied proper care before his death. This isn’t an isolated incident — another detainee died under similar circumstances last year. Advocates and the ACLU accuse the GEO Group and federal authorities of systemic failures, while officials insist medical standards are met. The tragedy underscores growing concerns about conditions in U.S. immigration detention centers. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
