Alarming surge in suicides among ICE detainees, investigation reveals
An Associated Press investigation has uncovered an unprecedented surge in suicides among Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainees since Donald Trump took office in January 2025, with 10 confirmed suicide deaths as of May 2026, a rate far outpacing historical averages and the growth of the detainee population. The probe found systemic failures across ICE detention facilities including delayed mental health treatment, ignored signs of detainee distress, improper use of solitary isolation, and non-compliance with agency health screening protocols, with critics blaming gaps on the Trump administration's aggressive immigration crackdown.
