Homicide by Asphyxiation: What Happened to Geraldo Lunas Campos, Who Died in a Texas ICE Jail?
The family of Geraldo Lunas Campos is suing over the 55-year-old Cuban immigrant's death at an ICE detention center in Texas earlier this year, with a local coroner ruling his death a homicide from asphyxia. The Department of Homeland Security said Lunas Campos had attempted suicide, but witnesses said he died after being restrained by multiple guards. The family's lawsuit names four guards and multiple private companies overseeing the jail.
