Nicaraguan asylum seeker dies in ICE custody in Aurora.
"He was 39 years old, so clearly something catastrophic happened. At this point, we can't really say much more, because we're not in touch with his family," Lunn says."We don't feel comfortable sharing any of the details of what we've been hearing at this point out of respect."
An immigration judge with the Executive Office of Immigration Review issued an October 5 decision ordering Calero to be deported from the U.S."There is a 30-day period reserved before action is taken to accommodate any appeals," ICE says in its release. According to Lunn, the vast majority of Nicaraguans who have come to the U.S. in recent years likely have a bona fide case to receive asylum.
Calero Mendoza's death is the third at the Aurora Contract Detention Facility in its 38-year history, according to ICE. The last detainee death was that of Kamyar Samimi, who died not long after being detained at the facility in 2017. , a Democrat who represents the area, has called for the facility to be closed and for the federal government to stop using private prisons for immigrant detention.

U.S. Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield made the announcement at an emergency meeting of the U.N. Security Council as thousands across Haiti organized protests demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Ariel Henry. The U.S. ambassador said the proposed “non-U.N.” mission would be limited in time and scope and be led by “a partner country” that was not named “with the deep, necessary experience required for such an effort to be effective.”
