civil charges, not criminals, so they shouldn't be in solitary
at all. To make the outrage complete, there's some sob
stories and the illegal immigrant from Yemen was put in
solitary for not following instructions to go to the meal
area and for refusing meals. Poor guy was a devout
Muslim fasting for Ramadan. Another illegal, a gay guy from Mexico,

was held in solitary for his own protection. So you see,
the bigots and homophobes are running things at ICE. Dr
Terry Cooper's a shrink who studies solitary confinement at a Berkeley,
California graduate school, accuses ICE of excessive force by using
solitary confinement because these are civil detentions, and he calls

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
