Intensive care nurses immediately doubted the word of federal #immigration officers when they arrived at a #Minneapolis hospital with a #Mexican #immigrant who had broken bones in his face and skull.
#ICE agents initially claimed Alberto Castañeda Mondragón had tried to flee while handcuffed and “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall,” according to court documents filed by a lawyer seeking his release.
But staff members at Hennepin County Medical Center determined that could not possibly account for the fractures and bleeding throughout the 31-year-old’s brain, said three nurses familiar with the case.
