Daphy Michel, a 31-year-old asylum seeker from Haiti, dies of hypothermia in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, days after she is released from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody. Multiple outlets report she arrived in the United States after crossing at the southern border in 2022 and that she is found March 2 at a bus shelter. According to reporting, security footage shows Michel sitting at a bus stop bench for days in cold temperatures. The Allegheny County Medical Examiner’s Office determines her cause of death is hypothermia and rules the manner of death a homicide, indicating the death is caused by the actions of another individual. The outlets also report that an attorney representing Michel’s family says the family expects to sue ICE in connection with her death. A spokesperson for ICE, as cited by one outlet, denies any involvement, saying the agency has “NOTHING to do with this woman’s death.” The reports describe the case as raising questions about what happens to detainees after release, while the medical examiner’s ruling and the family’s anticipated legal action are the central developments.
