Sarah Stillman discusses her recent story for the The New Yorker, “When Deportation Is a Death Sentence,” on the tragic consequences of deportation for some immigrants in the U.S. Stillman gathered the stories of immigrants who were sent back to their home countries and later kidnapped, tortured, assaulted, or killed as a result. Her investigation began nearly two years ago, when, together with a dozen students from Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism, where she directs the Global Migration Project, Stillman started creating a record of people who had been deported to harm.
