For instance, facilities must provide detainees with access to TV, recreation and books to the fullest extent possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But immigrants held at various detention centers, including private prisons and county jails, have reported that ICE is \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11841120/ice-misusing-solitary-confinement-for-covid-19-quarantine-detainees-say\">misusing solitary confinement\u003c/a> for COVID-19 quarantine. Erazo Herrera said the 12-day quarantine he experienced felt like a punishment, and his mental health deteriorated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Related Coverage' tag='immigration']He was kept in the cell alone, 22 hours per day, he said. For days, there was nothing for him to do to pass the time. The jail eventually allowed him to have books friends outside the jail sent him, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That cell is not for a human being, it’s like for keeping a dangerous animal locked up. There’s no TV, there’s nothing,” said Erazo Herrera. “You start feeling so depressed that you think about killing yourself. You wonder what you’ve done to deserve to be treated this way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He was released from medical segregation last week and said he no longer feels severe COVID-19 symptoms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since April, the ICE detainee population at Yuba County Jail has decreased from 144 to 16 people. Judge Chhabria ordered the agency to release more than 50 immigrants from the facility. Others were transferred, deported or released by ICE, which can free individuals after assessing their public safety and flight risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorney Wells said conditions are so miserable that some immigrants held at Yuba County Jail have given up and agreed to be deported after just one month in detention. But Erazo Herrera has endured three years at the jail as he waits for his asylum case to be decided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Juan Jose has not agreed to deportation because he really is in a dire situation,” said Wells. “In addition to the abuse that he suffered by his mother, he was also repeatedly beaten by gang members and threatened with death.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Erazo Herrera fled El Salvador and crossed the U.S. border without a parent when he was 16. Officials with the Office of Refugee Resettlement, the agency responsible for caring for unaccompanied migrant minors, took him into custody and subsequently released him to an older brother in New York, said Wells.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Erazo Herrera was involved in a robbery, for which he served time at a juvenile facility. When he turned 18, ICE detained him and sent him to the Yuba jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11857138\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1200px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11857138\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Herrera-Snow.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"821\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Herrera-Snow.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Herrera-Snow-800x547.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Herrera-Snow-1020x698.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Herrera-Snow-160x109.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Juan Jose Erazo Herrera plays in the snow in New York, where he lived with his brother before his involvement in a robbery led him to be detained by ICE. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Juan Jose Erazo Herrera)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The crime wass a mistake Erazo Herrera said he frequently regrets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve paid for it.

I’m not the same kid I was then.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recently, a judge in Yuba County Superior Court granted Erazo Herrera special immigrant juvenile status, reserved for undocumented immigrants under age 21 who were abused by a parent, and for whom returning to their home country is not in their best interest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The classification is not enough for ICE to release him from detention, said Wells, but it opens the door for him to apply for a green card. Still, that may take years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Erazo Herrera hopes that when he can eventually leave the detention center, he’ll have a chance go to school, work, and one day start an organization that supports young undocumented migrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’d like to help other kids who’ve gone through similar circumstances as me,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

You wonder what you’ve done to deserve to be treated this way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He was released from medical segregation last week and said he no longer feels severe COVID-19 symptoms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since April, the ICE detainee population at Yuba County Jail has decreased from 144 to 16 people. Judge Chhabria ordered the agency to release more than 50 immigrants from the facility. Others were transferred, deported or released by ICE, which can free individuals after assessing their public safety and flight risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorney Wells said conditions are so miserable that some immigrants held at Yuba County Jail have given up and agreed to be deported after just one month in detention. But Erazo Herrera has endured three years at the jail as he waits for his asylum case to be decided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Juan Jose has not agreed to deportation because he really is in a dire situation,” said Wells. “In addition to the abuse that he suffered by his mother, he was also repeatedly beaten by gang members and threatened with death.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Erazo Herrera fled El Salvador and crossed the U.S. border without a parent when he was 16. Officials with the Office of Refugee Resettlement, the agency responsible for caring for unaccompanied migrant minors, took him into custody and subsequently released him to an older brother in New York, said Wells.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Erazo Herrera was involved in a robbery, for which he served time at a juvenile facility. When he turned 18, ICE detained him and sent him to the Yuba jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11857138\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1200px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11857138\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Herrera-Snow.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"821\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Herrera-Snow.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Herrera-Snow-800x547.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Herrera-Snow-1020x698.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Herrera-Snow-160x109.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Juan Jose Erazo Herrera plays in the snow in New York, where he lived with his brother before his involvement in a robbery led him to be detained by ICE. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Juan Jose Erazo Herrera)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The crime wass a mistake Erazo Herrera said he frequently regrets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve paid for it.

Still, that may take years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Erazo Herrera hopes that when he can eventually leave the detention center, he’ll have a chance go to school, work, and one day start an organization that supports young undocumented migrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’d like to help other kids who’ve gone through similar circumstances as me,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But unless ICE can reduce the population enough to permit detainees to maintain social distancing of 6 feet or more, it’s just a matter of time advocates say.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The detainees in these facilities live in crowded, shared spaces,” according to the complaint. “Many sleep and spend most waking hours within arm’s reach of one another in assigned bunk beds in cramped dormitories. They share dining areas, standing inches apart as they wait in line for food and then sitting shoulder to shoulder as they eat on chairs that are bolted to the floor.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a news conference Tuesday, Charles Joseph, a Sacramento resident who was released from Mesa Verde on April 13 under a judge’s orders, said he felt ICE treated the health of detainees with disregard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They continue to fill dorms to capacity with people who could be carriers. There are 100 bunks in one room,” said Joseph. “This pandemic has caused us not to be quiet anymore, because our detention for a civil matter may be a death sentence.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joseph said he had joined a sit-in and a hunger strike at Mesa Verde to protest conditions. The lawsuit also seeks to prevent ICE from retaliating against those who participate in such protests, and asked the court to set aside an ICE policy that prohibits “engaging in or inciting a group demonstration.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ICE will not comment on pending litigation, the agency said in a statement released by spokesman Jonathan Moor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The statement also said that the agency “is taking all necessary precautionary measures to ensure all ICE detainees are screened medically upon their arrival to our facilities. Comprehensive protocols are in place for the protection of staff and detainee patients, including the appropriate use of personal protective equipment (PPE), in accordance with CDC guidance ... . As an additional measure of defense, ICE detainees suspected of exposure or infection of certain diseases are medically ‘cohorted,’ in line with CDC guidelines and ICE detention standards.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency added that starting April 17, people detained at Mesa Verde would receive surgical masks every Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of Tuesday evening, 253 ICE detainees \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/coronavirus\">had been diagnosed with COVID-19\u003c/a> across the country, along with 32 ICE agents working in detention centers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Related Stories\" tag=\"immigration\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An outbreak at the Otay Mesa Detention Center in San Diego has infected 29 detained immigrants and at least 16 staff members from both ICE and the company that operates the jail, CoreCivic.

In late January, the two sides \u003ca href=\"https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.cacd.712028/gov.uscourts.cacd.712028.205.0.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">notified\u003c/a> the court that they had agreed to settle the case “for a confidential amount.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The announcement of the settlement ends 20 months of legal proceedings that — through the release of documents, depositions and video from ICE’s processing center in Adelanto — have opened a window into a facility that has come under intense scrutiny from federal inspectors and immigration advocates alike.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/01/15/794660949/despite-findings-of-negligent-care-ice-to-expand-troubled-calif-detention-center\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NPR reported\u003c/a> in January, a previously confidential government inspection found that the facility was failing to meet many of the government’s own standards for solitary confinement, mental health treatment and medical care.

According to the directive, the codified plan includes a sustainable proposal for triage, plus screenings for respiratory systems, instructions to isolate sick migrants to prevent the spread of disease, vaccines for staff and a supply of face masks and hand sanitizer.

There were nearly 1 million crossings from the early 2000s, but those were mostly single men from Mexico who were easily returned, not families from Central America who require much more care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigration officials were involved in more than 20,000 hospital visits this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Homeland Security worked with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on creating and implementing recommendations.
