In Springfield, Ohio, a twenty-year-old Haitian student died by apparent suicide in the days following his placement under an ankle monitor as part of a federal immigration enforcement initiative targeting Haitian nationals. His death arrives at the intersection of policy and personhood — where the machinery of state enforcement meets the fragile interior life of a young man far from home. It is a reminder that the human cost of governance is rarely captured in the statistics that shape it.
