US Edition2-Month-Old Baby with Bronchitis Deported Along with Mother After Stay at Dilley ICE Facility, Rep. Castro Says
Juan Nicolás, detained nearly half his life with his mother, was hospitalized after a severe bronchitis episode amid reported lack of early morning medical staff at the Dilley facility.
- Tuesday, Rep. Joaquin Castro said a two-month-old was taken to the hospital Monday night from the Dilley ICE facility after developing bronchitis.
- Castro says Juan Nicolás has been at Dilley for about three and a half weeks and missed early-morning care when no doctor was available.
- At the hospital, the infant was held under guard by armed federal agents and treated at a hospital in South Texas before being released within a few hours, with the Frio County Sheriff's Office notified only of his return to Dilley.
- Castro urged the administration to release Juan Nicolás and the infant's mother from detention after the mother appeared before an immigration judge Tuesday morning and was told she would be deported.
- CoreCivic says the on-site clinic is staffed and emergency care is available 24/7, while Dilley, Texas faces criticism over measles, sanitation issues, and problems getting clean water for formula.
