ICE detainees face inhumane conditions amid record detentions since 2025 crackdown.

Detainees in the United States. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities, including the Adelanto complex in California, have reported severe conditions such as overcrowding, inadequate medical care, poor nutrition, and prolonged isolation, with some detained for years despite having no criminal convictions. Accounts from people like Cuban immigrant Abraham Torres Fernandez, who was denied hearing aids for months, and others who describe physical and emotional trauma highlight systemic flaws. A spike in detentions since 2025, linked to a federal immigration crackdown, has heightened scrutiny, with civil rights advocates and courts raising concerns about inhumane treatment and unconstitutional detention practices.
