Death of nearly blind refugee after release from immigration custody sparks probe in New York

A nearly blind refugee from Myanmar, Nurul Amin Shah Alam, was released from federal immigration custody and dropped off near a Buffalo coffee shop; days later he was found dead about six miles away in freezing weather, prompting a police investigation and calls for accountability. DHS says the shop placement was a 'warm, safe location' instead of direct release from Border Patrol, while Reuters notes he was released because he could not be deported as a refugee. He had previously been in local police custody on assault and weapons charges.
