ICE Warden Allegedly Forced Transgender Detainees into Labor Program: Complaint Filed
A transgender Mexican national, Monica Renteria-Gonzalez, alleges enduring months of physical and emotional abuse while in ICE custody in Louisiana. The abuse, beginning prior to the Trump administration, includes sexual assault, physical abuse, and denial of medical attention, allegedly perpetrated by a former ICE assistant warden. Detainees were reportedly subjected to forced labor with little to no compensation, with the warden targeting transgender and masculine-presenting individuals. Human rights organizations, including RFK Human Rights, have filed complaints detailing these allegations, while ICE and GEO Group have denied the claims.
