Detainee Death at Newark Jail Sparks Outcry | Miami News
Description
A Salvadoran immigrant, Edwin Lopez-Cornejo, died at Newark’s Delaney Hall immigration jail — the second detainee death this year under President Trump’s second term. Despite ICE claiming he received proper care, critics, including Senator Cory Booker, demand the facility shut down immediately, citing months of neglect, hunger strikes, and denied medical treatment. With 56 deaths in ICE custody nationwide since Trump’s return, questions mount over accountability and conditions at private prison facilities like Delaney Hall.
