“The stress that they're under is absolutely extreme. Indefinite detention.…” quote by Patrick McGorry — Download Open image

“The stress that they're under is absolutely extreme. Indefinite detention. Not knowing when you're going to get out. The threat of being sent back to a country that you fear you're going to be murdered or tortured upon return. I mean, this is the most extreme form of stress you can possibly conjure up. And our country is doing this to these people.”
