Ossoff (D-Ga.) unveiled the bipartisan Senate subcommittee findings about the horrific experiences of women in Georgia detention facilities.

Ossoff asked if Dr. Smith—who is charge of all medical care for detained immigrants in federal custody—if he had anything to say to the “dozens if not hundreds of women” harmed.Disheartening is the most benign descriptor for what women described happened to them while under ICE care. Take the story of Karina Cisneros Preciado, 23, who told the subcommittee that Dr. Amin did not greet her or talk about the procedures that would be performed at her appointment in early September 2020.

Cisneros Preciado told the committee that the doctor told her that she had an ovarian cyst and would be getting a as treatment, but did not explain what that meant. Cisneros Preciado said she shook while trying to get dressed. While she was handcuffed , she was injected with the birth control shot.She never saw Dr. Amin for a follow-up because allegations against the provider would become national news. When Cisneros Preciado received a follow-up transvaginal ultrasound for her ovarian cyst in October 2020, an imaging report found nothing.
