Security footage has brought attention to Daphy Michel, a 31-year-old asylum seeker from Haiti, who faced chilling conditions on a Pittsburgh bus stop bench.

Daphy Michel, recently released from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody, was seen on a steel bench wearing a hooded sweatshirt as protection against the freezing temperatures. Her asylum-seeking journey in the United States took an unexpected turn when she was arrested by local authorities following a mental health episode.

Images captured by the Pittsburgh transit authority show Michel in this vulnerable situation, highlighting the challenges faced by asylum seekers and the importance of addressing mental health in immigration processes.
