美国移民和海关执法局（ICE）周五报告了今年以来该局拘留所内第18名人员死亡事件，如果这一严峻趋势持续下去，该机构或将创下被拘留者死亡人数的历史新高。
该局在给国会的通知和公开新闻稿中表示，一名33岁古巴男子周二在佐治亚州的ICE拘留中心死亡。ICE称，丹尼·阿丹·冈萨雷斯周二晚些时候在佐治亚州伦普金市由私营机构运营的斯图尔特拘留中心的牢房内被发现失去意识。该局称疑似死因为自杀，并表示调查正在进行中。
此次上报的自杀事件是2026年头四个月内ICE拘留所发生的第18起被拘留者死亡事件。去年，ICE记录了31起被拘留者死亡事件，达到20年来的峰值，险些打破2004年创下的历史纪录——当年共报告34起死亡事件。
ICE表示，冈萨雷斯于2019年5月在得克萨斯州边境的官方入境口岸首次进入美国，但于次年被驱逐出境。该局称，他于2022年再次非法入境，随后被美国移民官员释放。
去年12月，ICE称冈萨雷斯在北卡罗来纳州夏洛特市因袭击和家庭暴力指控被当地官员逮捕，促使联邦机构于今年1月将其拘留。ICE补充道，自此之后他一直被ICE关押。
过去一年ICE拘留所内死亡人数大幅上升，恰逢特朗普政府在全国范围内展开驱逐行动。这场备受争议的镇压行动导致ICE拘留的被拘留者人数达到纪录高位，同时该局仍在试图将他们驱逐出境。
今年早些时候，ICE的拘留人数飙升至7万多人。在两党人士的强烈抗议下，特朗普政府缩减了明尼阿波利斯等主要城市的激进行动，拘留人数此后有所下降。但上个月拘留人数仍维持在6万人左右，高于任何往届政府执政时期的水平。
根据哥伦比亚广播公司新闻对政府数据的分析，即便按每年在押人数比例计算，2025年的死亡率达到每1万名被拘留者中有5.6人死亡，是2020年新冠疫情暴发以来的最高值。
今年在ICE拘留所死亡的被拘留者包括一名曾在阿富汗与美军合作的阿富汗难民，以及一名墨西哥青少年。ICE称，这些被拘留者此前因盗窃、欺诈和拒捕等一系列指控被当地官员逮捕。
随着特朗普政府大幅扩充ICE的拘留系统，全国各地不断有报告指出拘留场所存在过度拥挤、医疗服务不足以及食物短缺等恶劣条件。
ICE始终否认有关其拘留设施条件恶劣的指控，而在公布新的被拘留者死亡事件时，该机构也会发表类似声明，为其对待被拘留者的方式辩护。
ICE周五表示：“ICE致力于确保所有被拘留者都能在安全、有保障且人性化的环境中生活。从人员抵达的那一刻起直至整个拘留期间，我们都会提供全面的医疗护理。”

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement on Friday reported the 18th death of an individual in its custody so far this year, putting the agency on track to record a new all-time high in detainee deaths if the grim trend continues.
A 33-year-old man from Cuba died at an ICE detention center in Georgia on Tuesday, the agency said in a notification to Congress and a public press release. ICE said Denny Adan Gonzalez was found unresponsive in his cell at the privately operated Stewart Detention Center in Lumpkin, Georgia, late Tuesday. The agency described the suspected cause of death as suicide and said its investigation is ongoing.
The reported suicide is the 18th ICE detainee death in the first four months of 2026. Last year, ICE recorded 31 detainee deaths, a two-decade high that nearly surpassed the all-time record set in 2004, when 34 deaths were reported.
ICE said Gonzalez first entered the U.S. in May 2019 at an official port of entry along the Texas border, but that he was deported the following year. The agency said he reentered the country illegally in 2022 and was subsequently released by U.S. immigration officials.
In December, ICE said Gonzalez was arrested by local officials in Charlotte, North Carolina, on assault and domestic violence charges, prompting the federal agency to take him into custody in January. He had been in ICE custody ever since, ICE added.
The sharp increase in ICE detainee deaths over the past year has coincided with the Trump administration’s nationwide deportation blitz. The controversial crackdown has led ICE to hold record numbers of detainees in its custody while it tries to deport them.
Earlier this year, ICE’s detention population soared to more than 70,000 people. That number has decreased since the Trump administration scaled back its aggressive operations in major cities like Minneapolis amid bipartisan outcry. But the detention population still stood around 60,000 last month, higher than under any prior administration.
Even after accounting for the number of people in detention each year, 2025 had the highest death rate — 5.6 people per 10,000 detainees — since 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, according to a CBS News analysis of government data.
Those who have died in ICE custody this year include an Afghan refugee who worked alongside American military forces in Afghanistan and a Mexican teenager. The agency said the detainees had been previously arrested by local officials on an array of charges including theft, fraud and resisting an officer.
As the Trump administration has greatly expanded ICE’s detention apparatus, reports of substandard conditions, including overcrowding, inadequate medical care and insufficient food, have emerged throughout the country.
ICE has consistently denied allegations of poor conditions in its detention facilities, and when it announces new detainee deaths, the agency issues similar defenses of its treatment of those in custody.
“ICE is committed to ensuring that all those in custody reside in safe, secure, and humane environments,” the agency said Friday. “Comprehensive medical care is provided from the moment individuals arrive and throughout their stay.”
