A Chinese man died within hours of entering US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody in Saipan, and the agency won't say whether he received the medical screening it promises every detainee within 12 hours of intake.
Lianyong Wei, 51, was found unresponsive during a routine morning check on 23 August at a lockup in the US Pacific territory of the Northern Mariana Islands. He was pronounced dead at a hospital emergency room hours later, and the cause is still under investigation.
