Isidro Pérez spent his life by the sea: first, during his childhood in Cuba, and at the end, on a house-boat off the coast of Key Largo with his dogs. He arrived in the U.S. in 1966 at the age of 16 and worked as a mechanic and fisherman. In the early 1980s, he was convicted of marijuana possession “with intent to distribute,” but his family said he turned his life around. His daughter and six stepchildren offered to buy him an apartment in his later years, but he declined. “He was like a bird that didn’t want to be caged up,” his stepdaughter, Alba Patricia Gomez, told reporters. On June 5, five immigration officers arrested Pérez, 75, at a community center. A photo taken by a family friend of the moment shows Pérez with a long, white beard. His hands are behind his back. Officers took him to Krome North Service Processing Center in Miami. Three weeks later, on Thursday, Isidro Perez died in U.S. Immigration and Customs custody. A government statement shows he had been in the hospital the day before for a heart condition.
