Carlitos Ricardo Parias

Journalist Carlitos Ricardo Parias has been detained by ICE in Adelanto, Calif., for nearly 300 days following an incident where federal agents allegedly shot him. He suffers from a festering wound on his arm and poor living conditions, including finding worms in the drinking water at the processing center. Parias's detention is cited as an example of sustained violence endured by journalists at the hands of the U.S. government.

A video shared by the family of a detainee at the Adelanto ICE Processing Center in California shows what appear to be worm-like creatures in a bottle of drinking water provided to detainees. Carlitos Ricardo Parias remains in federal custody at the center pending deportation to Mexico, despite a recent dismissal of unspecified charges.

A detainee at a California ICE facility shared video footage showing water contaminated with worm-like creatures. The video was released by the detainee's attorneys, highlighting concerns about conditions at the Adelanto Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility.

Carlitos Ricardo Parias, a man shot by federal agents during an immigration arrest, is detained at Adelanto Detention Center and alleges inadequate medical care for injuries sustained in the incident. His attorneys seek his release while his immigration case proceeds, highlighting systemic gaps in oversight and resources within immigration detention centers.
