Rocks in food, diseased detainees unable to see doctor: Ro Khanna ‘horrified’ by living conditions at California ICE facility

Khanna said he spoke with 47 detainees during his visit on January 5. “One man with blood in his urine had not been able to see a doctor, another complained of rocks in the food, another of not having a long sleeve shirt, shivering at night,” he said.

He later told KQED the conditions amounted to “systemic neglect”.

“We’re treating these people like animals, not like human beings … It’s an embarrassment for the country,” Khanna said.
