New Mexico Immigrant Law Center Demands for Probe into Medical Neglect at Cibola County Correctional Center

December 17, 2024

 

The New Mexico Immigrant Law Center (NMILC) submits the instant complaint regarding a staggering and dangerous lack of medical care for migrants in ICE custody at the Cibola County Correctional Center (CCCC) in Milan, New Mexico. Shockingly, as recently as December 4, 2024, the DHS-ICE El Paso Field Office reported that only 55% of all medical positions at CCCC are filled. This employment shortage in CCCC creates extreme risks to the health and safety of asylum seekers detained there.

Despite clear regulatory requirements, medical care is universally inadequate for all types of medical vulnerabilities at CCCC.
