The New York Times published an interesting article today:

I think our immigration system should treat detainees with dignity. I understand our immigration judges have many cases to handle a year, and it is perhaps difficult for them to examine the detainees too carefully. I understand that the government may have examined the mental capacity of the detainees when they are first arrested. However, what if a detainee has developed mental illness when he/she is detained? Should there be someway to access the mental capacity of a detainee before a deportation proceeding? I think the answer should be "yes."
