Family speaks out after death of man deported by ICE in vegetative state

Randall Alberto Gamboa Esquivel's family alleges negligence and inhumane treatment

The recent death of a Costa Rican man who was jailed by US immigration authorities in February before being deported in a vegetative state in September has prompted his family and supporters to speak out with allegations of negligence and inhumane treatment.

Nonetheless, a spokesperson for Donald Trump's administration - which has aimed to deport as many people as possible from the US since his second presidency started in January - maintained in a statement that the medical treatment Randall Alberto Gamboa Esquivel received before his death is better than many immigrants have received in their entire lives".
