In Arizona, a 36-year-old Guatemalan woman has died in the custody of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, after she suffered a series of seizures while being detained at the Eloy Detention Center. Raquel Hidalgo had been held at Eloy since November 13 after U.S. Border Patrol agents captured her as she tried to cross the U.S.-Mexico border. She died after being rushed to a nearby hospital Sunday. Since 2003, at least 15 people have died while confined at the for-profit Eloy Detention Center, which is run by Corrections Corporation of America, or CCA, which recently changed its name to CoreCivic.
