People Detained in ICE Facilities Haven't Seen Their Loved Ones in Two Years
By Jasmine Aguilera


Detainees with lawyers have been permitted to meet them in-person. But most detainees do not have lawyers. Unlike those charged with a crime, people with ongoing immigration cases are not entitled to an attorney. Roughly 80 percent of people in ICE detention with a case in immigration court have not had legal representation so far this fiscal year, according to the Transactional Records Access Clearing House, a research organization at Syracuse University.
