Society / One Woman’s Message From the Hell of ICE Detention My husband, son, and I have been locked up for months—despite being permanent residents with no criminal record.
Even so, it never occurred to me that he could have been detained by ICE.
The next day, when I took my son to school, my car was surrounded by DHS cars, and my son and I were detained.
My son and I have spent over 120 days in the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, away from my husband, who was taken to the South Texas Detention Center in Pearsall, Texas.
I want my son to have a normal life, not spend his days in this awful detention center in Dilley.
