A 36-year-old man arrived with his wife for a routine asylum check-in appointment at the Miramar ICE office on June 28, where they had been reporting for five years. He was taken into custody and spent three days in an overcrowded room with approximately 70 other people, with barely any water or food and a single toilet, while his wife remained outside. His case was cited among a series of complaints from relatives, attorneys and activists that detainees are being held for days at the Miramar facility, which lacks beds and adequate food or water for overnight stays. Democratic Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz made an unannounced visit to the site and described conditions as "horrific," saying detainees were "packed in like sardines."
