Help Immigrant Dad Have Legal Representation

Donation protected

I’m Pedro R., and I am raising awareness and funds on behalf of my girlfriend whose father was recently detained by ICE.

On July 4, 2025 at around 11 a.m., her father, Edgar, was looking for work at a Home Depot when he was taken by ICE during a raid near Lawndale, CA.My girlfriend and her family have yet to find where he was taken to.

We are collecting community funds to give her father the legal representation he deserves and needs. Given he was a main contributor to his family’s income, his family is in great need of mutual aid. Please consider donating and sharing with your communities.

He is a loving father doing everything he can to give his family a better future. He has done an exemplary job at raising his children and his detainment has brought a lot of grief to his family and friends. Please help us to provide him with legal representation and to support his family. Thank you.

Update 7/12/2025:

"My dad was finally transferred to a detention center in SoCal this week so we were able to locate and speak to him. The attorney will visit him on Wednesday to discuss next steps which will most likely be requesting a bond hearing. I had an opportunity to speak with him on the phone and am grateful he's holding up well. Thank you to everyone who has been supporting us to get to this point. I'll provide more updates soon" - From My Girlfriend

EN ESPANOL:

Soy Pedro R., y estoy recaudando fondos en nombre de mi novia cuyo padre fue detenido por ICE.

El 4 de julio de 2025, alrededor de las 11 a.m., Edgar, el padre de mi novia, buscaba trabajo en una Home Depot cuando fue detenido por ICE durante una redada cerca de Lawndale, CA. Su familia todavía está buscando a donde lo llevaron.

Estamos recaudando fondos comunitarios para brindarle a su padre la representación legal que merece y necesita. Dado que era uno de los principales contribuyentes a los ingresos de su familia, su familia necesita urgentemente ayuda mutua. Por favor, considere donar y compartir con sus comunidades.

Es un padre amoroso que hace todo lo posible para darle a su familia un mejor futuro. Ha hecho un trabajo ejemplar criando a sus hijos y su detención ha traído mucho dolor a su familia y amigos. Por favor considere ayudarnos en brindarle la representación legal que necesita y a apoyar a su familia. Gracias.

Actualización 7/12/2025:

Mi papá finalmente fue trasladado a un centro de detención en el sur de California esta semana, así que pudimos localizarlo y hablar con él. El abogado lo visitará el miércoles para hablar sobre los próximos pasos, que muy probablemente incluirán solicitar una audiencia de fianza. Tuve la oportunidad de hablar con él por teléfono y estoy agradecido de que se encuentre bien. Gracias a todos los que nos han estado apoyando para llegar hasta este punto. Compartiré más actualizaciones pronto.- De parte de mi Novia
