Subject: 75-Year-Old Man Died in ICE Cus
You might wonder what a 75-year-old man in poor health was doing in ICE custody in the first place, right? Surely, he was a notorious gang member or a violent felon.

Nope.

Isidro Perez came to the United States from Cuba nearly 60 years ago when he was 16 years old as part of the parole programs that the U.S. implemented for Cubans fleeing Castro’s reign.

Whatever is learned about the death, those details are going to raise serious questions about the deployment of law enforcement resources under Trump adviser Stephen Miller’s dragnet. Miller has been ordering ICE officials to drive up the deportation numbers to the highest possible levels, and detaining a 75-year-old man who has been here for longer than a half-century is apparently what this has come to entail.

So why was he detained? The ICE note to Congress claims that he was arrested in a law enforcement operation in Key Largo on June 6, and was “charged with inadmissibility pursuant to the Immigration and Nationality Act,” or INA. It notes that he was paroled into the United States on April 1, 1966, in Houston.

Evidently Perez was arrested and detained because of two previous convictions for possession of a controlled substance, in 1981 and 1984. Yep, over 40 years ago. Two generations ago.

Thank Gawd Mad King Donald is keeping Americans safe from sickly 76-year-old men.

Jeebus, wait'll this Big Ugly Budget passes and Mad King Donald has $75 billion for ICE. He'll be rounding up 90-year-olds who spit on the sidewalk 60 years ago.
