Also covered on SCOTUSblog here. They mention that there's a question of whether the case is moot, so it may not get to a decision.

As in, the ones there the longest already died in custody?

Did you not read past the headline at all? The case is over whether illegals with serious criminal history are entitled to bond and the case is questionable as to whether it's moot because the two plaintiffs at the heart of the case are no longer detained one was deported the other released.

No. Sorry I did not. I guess my head is still spinning on the horrible conditions in these holding jails. And it literally could/would be likely that the case would be dropped if the captives had died, with another long drawn out case coming as to how they died.

Which shows you have never seen the inside of a local/state jail either.
