PITTSBURGH —

The death of a Haitian asylum seeker who was found unresponsive at a bus stop after being released from jail has been ruled homicide.

The Allegheny County Medical Examiner has ruled 31-year-old Daphy Michel’s death a homicide, with the manner of death listed as hypothermia.

Pittsburgh’s Action News 4 reporter Kalea Gunderson was first to report on Michel’s death and has been providing updates from the start.

At the end of February, Michel was released from Washington County Jail into U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody three days before her death.

ICE officials confirmed she was issued an ankle monitor and released on Pittsburgh’s South Side on Feb. 27.

Pittsburgh Regional Transit video from a bus-mounted camera shows Michel sitting at a bus stop near the Smithfield Street Bridge on East Carson Street at 10:48 p.m. on Feb. 28. Her family’s attorney confirmed her identity in the footage to Pittsburgh’s Action News 4.

The video shows Michel remained at the bus shelter for hours. On March 1, she was seen sitting on the bench throughout the day and into the next morning, March 2. She was still at the bus shelter, appearing in the footage throughout the morning.

By 8:36 a.m., Michel was sitting on the ground of the bus shelter. Within an hour, she was captured lying on the ground. PRT police said she was unresponsive and had no pulse at the time.

A maintenance worker spotted Michel and called for help, PRT said at the time. She was rushed to the hospital but did not survive.

Michel’s brother Carlo, who speaks Haitian Creole, previously sat down with Pittsburgh’s Action News 4 and an interpreter to talk about the loss of his sister and the questions he had surrounding her death.

“I don’t know if it’s true, if it’s reality,” Carlo said. “I need the justice for my sister.”
