On Thursday, December 11th at 5:30am, my cousin was taken by ICE while he was on his way to work near Columbia Blvd and Kenton Park. Vehicles blocked him from the front and back, and although he asked for a warrant, ICE proceeded to take him, leaving his car abandoned on the side of the road. His wife spent the entire day believing he was at work, only to realize later that he never made it home to her and their two young children, ages 3 and 6. He is the only provider for his family, and his sudden absence has left them in a state of shock and fear, unsure of what the future holds. Now, his wife and children are facing an incredibly difficult time. With no income, they are struggling to pay for their needs while now trying to cover mounting legal fees to bring him back home. Every day is a challenge as we don’t know long it will take to bring him back home, and the uncertainty weighs heavily on their hearts. We are reaching out to our community for help. Any donation, no matter the size, will go directly to supporting my cousin’s family—covering legal expenses, bond fees and also helping them stay afloat during this crisis. Please consider sharing our story to help us. Thank you so much for your kindness and support. We are truly grateful for you all. <br /><br />

 El jueves 11 de diciembre a las 5:30 a.m., mi primo fue detenido por ICE mientras se dirigía a trabajar cerca de Columbia Blvd y Kenton Park. Vehículos lo bloquearon por delante y por detrás, y aunque pidió una orden judicial, ICE procedió a detenerlo, dejando su auto abandonado al costado de la carretera. Su esposa pasó todo el día creyendo que él estaba en el trabajo, solo para darse cuenta más tarde de que nunca llegó a casa con ella y sus dos hijos pequeños, de 3 y 6 años. Él es el único proveedor de su familia, y su repentina ausencia los ha dejado en estado de shock y miedo, sin saber qué les depara el futuro. Ahora, su esposa y sus hijos enfrentan un momento increíblemente difícil. Sin ingresos, están luchando para pagar necesidades básicas ahora tambien cubrir los gastos para honorarios legales para traerlo de regreso a casa. Cada día es un desafío, y la incertidumbre pesa mucho en sus corazones. Estamos pidiendo ayuda a nuestra comunidad. Cualquier donación, sin importar la cantidad, irá directamente a apoyar a la familia de mi prima: cubrirá los gastos legales y les ayudará a mantenerse a flote durante esta crisis.
