The death of a man at a Texas immigration detention camp is likely to be classified as a homicide despite Immigration and Customs Enforcement claiming that he took his own life. Geraldo Lunas Campos, 55, died on Jan. 3 while being held in detention at Camp East Montana, the sprawling tent city at the Fort Bliss military base that is the nation's largest immigration detention center. El Paso County's Office of the Medical Examiner told his daughter this week that it was likely to classify his death as a homicide, according to a Washington Post report. An employee with the medical examiner's office told Lunas Campos's daughter that "our doctor is believing that we're going to be listing the manner of death as homicide," and that the "preliminary cause of death [would be listed] as asphyxia due to neck and chest compression." |
