Media coverage of rape in immigration detention and civil rights complaint

· National Immigrant Justice Center · By Associated Press · From the Border Crossing Law Firm media archive.

The National Immigrant Justice Center collects national and regional coverage of Audemio Orozco-Ramirez's reported rape in immigration detention and the civil-rights complaint filed on his behalf. It also notes a later government report finding that ICE had failed to report all detention sexual-assault allegations to Department of Homeland Security headquarters.

The collection shows how evidence obtained by Shahid helped turn one Montana client's experience into a wider national discussion about sexual assault, reporting failures, and safeguards in immigration detention.
