“Killing” is doing a LOT of work here for “death in custody” when you consider that the death rate in ICE custody is significantly lower than both the death rate in US prisons where we put US citizens and the overall US population’s death rate—and they are free to go back to their own countries if the healthcare is so great there yet we are constantly told that this is the worst thing that could possibly happen to them.

And especially by your own acknowledgment they are mostly dying in US hospitals built for Americans providing the best available care at the expense of US taxpayers and healthcare consumers.

Numerically they are safer in ICE custody than at large either in the USA or back where they belong.
