Just weeks after media outlets reported the death of a Cuban man in Miami while in Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody, another Cuban immigrant has died in what authorities ruled a suicide, though the official cause of death remains under investigation.

On April 28, Denny Adán González, 33, was found unresponsive in his cell at the Stewart Detention Center by CoreCivic staff, the company that operates the Georgia facility, at about 10:25 p.m. According to an ICE statement, emergency personnel immediately began treatment and administered CPR. Members of Webster County Emergency Medical Services also responded, but González was pronounced dead at 11:11 p.m.
