Human cost

An observed-harm ledger, kept plainly

This page records what sources say and no more. It does not assert that any individual death was preventable, negligent, or caused by detention unless a cited source establishes that.

Three categories, never blended

Most public argument collapses these three. Keeping them apart is the entire point of this page.

Observed / verified

Observed

A named event or death documented in a source. The record states that something happened, and to whom, on a date, at a place.

Attributed finding

Attributed

An investigator, medical examiner, court, or body of strong evidence connects the harm to a policy or institutional failure. Attribution is always someone's finding, and we name that someone.

Modeled estimate

Modeled

A statistical estimate produced under a stated counterfactual, with uncertainty. A model is a claim about a population, never about a specific person.

Attributed aggregate figures

These are counts published by named institutions within explicit time boundaries. A count within a window is not a rate, a trend, or a causal claim.

Reported deaths in ICE custody

January 20, 2025 through June 4, 2026 (first 500 days)

HRW and PHR reported 52 deaths in ICE custody within this bounded window. The figure is a count within that window only, and does not itself establish cause or preventability for any individual death.

Peak reported for January 2026

HRW and PHR reported the detained population exceeded 71,000 people in January 2026.

Individual records

Four records indexed — not a complete list of the 52 reported deaths

Scope and wording note

This is a four-record subset of the 39 case-level records medically reviewed for the report’s first-year study period. It is not a complete list of the 52 deaths reported through the June 4, 2026 statistical cutoff, and it is not a current tally. Each entry reproduces the name, age, nationality, date, facility, days in custody, and suspected cause exactly as published in the cited report.

Where a record reads “suspected cause,” that phrasing is the source’s own: it reflects PHR’s medical review of the case file. It is not an independent Detention Receipts diagnosis, cause-of-death determination, or finding of fault.
