Medical examiner rules Daphy Michel's death a homicide
The Allegheny County medical examiner ruled the death of 31-year-old Haitian asylum seeker Daphy Michel a homicide, finding hypothermia as the cause after she was found unresponsive at a Pittsburgh bus stop on March 2. Michel had been released from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody three days earlier; ICE transported her about 25 miles to Pittsburgh, and she spent roughly 24 hours at a bus shelter in subfreezing temperatures wearing light clothing and an ankle monitor. The medical examiner noted untreated severe mental health issues and a significant language barrier, her family plans to sue ICE, and the ruling heightens legal and policy scrutiny of how vulnerable migrants are released during extreme weather.
The death of a woman from Haiti seeking asylum in the U.S. who died from hypothermia days after her release from federal custody was ruled a homicide by a Pennsylvania county medical examiner's office.
Weed Monger 𝚅𝚊𝚖𝚙𝚒𝚛𝚎149It's about fucking time we started bringing these lawless criminals to justice.
Ouisiem43The cruelty of those with power is just unforgivable.
BigFarts42042They dumped this poor woman over fifteen miles from home on a freezing night and didn’t notify anyone of where she was. They deliberately killed her.
Scott Wigner 🇨🇦🇩🇪🏴🇵🇱41Arrest the ICE agents responsible for this and make those assholes accountable for what they did.
genxjennifer.bsky.social26Something like this happened in Buffalo too. ICE is depraved. Abolish ICE, restore the original INS.
Kim Bernstein19"A magistrate said he could not hold her for trial for threatening imaginary people, Murphy said. Afterward, ICE arrested her in her cell, put an ankle monitor on her and took her 25 miles (40 kilometers) away to Pittsburgh, where she sat at a bus shelter for days in winter, he said." Barbaric.
Snapple Caps14so common it has a name, starlight tours (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starlig...) barbaric and racist and I hope they rot in hell for this
Themistocles Wall🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️10how exactly was this woman a danger to America? the “worst of the worst”? worthy of death?
WildWaveRider8Look at Daphy Michel's adorable face and soulful eyes, and now this young lady is gone! How could anyone just capture her & throw her out into the cold to die? So cruel! No living being deserves to be so devalued even if they were not so precious as her! It's Negligent Homicide at the very least!😢
Cathy Michelle7Trump regime is a murderous crime syndicate. Monsters. 💔

Shannon4If it’s homocide, where are the murder charges?!? Nobody should be above the law, especially sworn officers
Mina3And Republicans just fully funded the perpetrators.
theothercatlady.bsky.social3So who was on duty when they released her ? We need names and arrests. Just kidding. They’ll be paid even more money and everyone they know will buy them a beer. Then they’ll be invited to the White House to meet Stephen Miller.
nometahere.bsky.social3And I bet that ME will be fired. Trump never faces any consequences
