1. NBC News: 'ICE detainee's death ruled a homicide by medical examiner'

"The autopsy report for Geraldo Lunas Campos, 55, originally from Cuba, who died Jan. 3 at the Camp East Montana facility at Fort Bliss, found the cause of death to be asphyxia due to neck and torso compression."

" 'Based on the investigative and examination findings, it is my opinion that the cause of death is asphyxia due to neck and torso compression. The manner of death is homicide,' the El Paso county medical examiner concluded in the report. Homicide means a person causes the death of another one, regardless of intent."

"When ICE first reported his death in a Jan. 9 press release, it stated that Lunas Campos had experienced 'medical distress.' The agency said medical staff responded and initiated lifesaving measures and requested emergency medical services."

"In an email to NBC News on Thursday, a Department of Homeland Security spokesperson stated that Lunas Campos had attempted to take his own life and that the security staff had 'immediately intervened to save his life.' "

“ 'Campos violently resisted the security staff and continued to attempt to take his life,' the DHS email stated. 'During the ensuing struggle, Campos stopped breathing and lost consciousness. Medical staff was immediately called and responded. After repeated attempts to resuscitate him, EMTs declared him deceased on the scene.' "

"DHS said that it’s still an active investigation and that 'ICE takes seriously the health and safety of all those detained in our custody.' "
