They let her out, you know, probably, we don't know.

We have no idea why.

But it probably has something to do with separating them because it makes the experience more excruciating.

Yeah, I mean, so right, there was nothing remotely legal about what they did.

The NAVA consent decree that exists in Chicago specifically, you know, limits...

ICE's ability to carry out warrantless arrests and vehicle stops.

They require predetermined fallible cause with the most recent rulings enforcing that despite constant violations by ICE.

But, you know, groups like the National Immigrant Justice Center have used that to successfully challenge those violations, leading to potential releases and actual releases for people who have been detained and orders for officers being retrained, which, I mean... They're just going to keep doing it, right?

But it is a tool that can be used by lawyers, like the wonderful immigration lawyers that we have on our team.

We have Paula and Ange, who are the immigration attorneys helping Alberto and his wife.

And they can use that like they've filed a habeas and they can use all of this evidence of how they were illegally detained and violated without any grounds to push back and say, you need to release him immediately.

Yeah, I mean, I would say twofold.

If we are looking at Albero's case and his family's case, there is a crowdfund that they can donate to.

I can send you the link that you can share.

We really need people to donate to that.

Again, Renee Ann Good was able to... Her wife was able to raise $1.4 million in a day.

And while I am hoping and have faith that they will redistribute that to other people in need who are impacted by situations like this, it doesn't really feel great to see...

White people get all that money when we can't even push past $14,000 for Alberto.

So we really need people to donate.

There is also a change.org petition for people to sign.
