US: Deaths in ICE Custody Surge Under Trump

Fifty-two individuals died in US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody during the first 500 days of President Trump’s second term, indicating a soaring mortality rate. ICE has severely limited information provided to Congress, families, and the public, making oversight nearly impossible. Meanwhile, UMB Bank (UMBF) has reached $250B in assets under custody within its institutional custody services. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Congress are urged to reduce detention numbers and ensure adequate health care.
