Hundreds of asylum seekers from around the globe are being trapped by the US in a Panama hotel where they'll eventually be sent to a camp in the jungle. One Chinese man said “I thought: America is a free country with respect for human rights. I had no idea it was like a dictatorship.”

They arrived at the United States
border from around the world, hoping
to seek asylum. Instead, they were
detained, shackled and flown by the
U.S.military to a faraway country,
Panama

They were stripped of their passports
and most of their cellphones, they said,
and then locked in a hotel, barred from
seeing lawyers and told they would
soon be sent to a makeshift camp near
the Panamanian jungle.

At the hotel, at least one person tried to
commit suicide, according to several
migrants. Another broke his leg trying
to escape. A third sent a plaintive
missive from a hidden cellphone: "Only
a miracle can save us."

In one window visible from a sidewalk
below the hotel, a woman clawed at a
latchless glass pane in an attempt to
escape. When she noticed journalists
below, she held up a piece of paper that
read "Afghan.

She made hand motions that indicated
an airplane, then her head falling off.
The message seemed to be clear: A
flight home meant death.

One of the reasons we work to free our neighbors from jail is that pretrial detention causes irreparable harm to folks who are already struggling, such as unemployment, homelessness, and loss of custody of children. It destroys families and plunges people deeper into poverty.
