Third Death at Delaney Hall Sparks Demand | Newark News
Description
A third possible death at New Jersey’s Delaney Hall immigration detention center has sparked urgent demands from Congressional Democrats for transparency and accountability. With no official confirmation yet, families like that of Edwin Jovanny Lopez Cornejo — who died reportedly from untreated diabetes and high blood pressure — are pushing back against what they see as dangerous negligence by ICE and its contractor, Geo Group. Lawmakers including Pallone, McIver, and Gottheimer have set a deadline of August 12th for federal officials to respond — but so far, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin and acting ICE Director David Venturella remain silent. The mounting pressure underscores deep concerns over detainee health and treatment inside the facility.
