ICE denied Greggy Sorio medical care for months at Tacoma detention facility, causing partial foot amputations

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's "pattern of failures" in treating Greggy Sorio, a Filipino lawful permanent resident held at the Northwest ICE Processing Center in Tacoma, left him hospitalized on October 22, 2025, after months of denied care for reported bleeding and pain beginning around mid-2025; doctors diagnosed a bone infection and performed two amputation surgeries. ICE continued to pursue his deportation despite the injuries, attempting to remove him in early December 2025 before a court order temporarily blocked it. A federal judge in the Western District of Washington later ruled the facility's treatment unconstitutional and ordered Sorio's release on February 13, 2026.
