The death of a Haitian woman, Daphy Michel, following her release by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is now being investigated as a homicide. Michel, who had mental health issues and limited English proficiency, was released in Pittsburgh in February and left on the streets. She died three days later from hypothermia. Advocates argue her release without adequate support constituted a negligent disregard for her well-being, effectively leading to her death. The circumstances surrounding her release and subsequent death have prompted scrutiny of ICE’s practices regarding vulnerable migrants. Authorities are now treating the case as a criminal matter, investigating whether negligence played a role in her passing. The incident highlights concerns about the treatment of individuals with mental health needs within the immigration system.
