ICE tells family their 82 y.o. grandfather has died in custody. Instead, they deported him to a country he had never lived in.

So this elderly man from Chile lost his green card and went to USCIS to get a new one. Instead, he was handcuffed and detained. His family tried to find him, but he was no where to be found. Some time later, someone from ICE called to tell the family he had died in custody.

But that is not true. The man was deported to Guatemala where he ended up in a hospital.


Chilean man in photos died in 2021, had a different name, Chilean media reports

Photographs purported to be of Luis Leon — who a woman claiming to be his granddaughter said was a Chilean national taken into custody by ICE and ended up in Guatemala — are actually of a man with …

Leon had been granted political asylum in 1987, and has lived with this family since then and even retired from a leather manufacturing plant.
 
I was just going to post that. What a disgrace the ice assholes have become thanks to a malignant narcissist scumbag piece of shit liar grifter rapist seditionist felon serial adulterer and tax cheat and pedophile.
 
Stories like this do not ring true.

Any immigrant with legal status will have their fingerprints readily available to ICE.

Correct.

But that doesn't mean they have to honor the "legal status".

Just cancel it, then he's not "legal" anymore and can be deported with no recourse.

Hell, DHS can even lie to the family.

There is a saying "I wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire".

I'd piss on MAGA. I'd just piss on their feet as they went up like a torch.

(Ok. Ok. I hope nothing can make me that inhuman. I hope that I would try to save them. But I might hate myself for doing it. These scum. Scum of the Earth. Oh sorry, some of the "very fine people" who are on "both sides"

But that's what Dark Helmet talked about: "good always loses because good is dumb". Good handicaps itself.).
 
If he just lost his green card and needed a replacement, then wouldn't that mean it was still active? And if it was still active, then wasn't there some other way to verify his legal status than just having to see a physical card? That part doesn't really add up to me.
 
Yep all ICE are bastards.
 
Trump has wreaked America.

No reason, just to torture the family.

Correction: someone called. Whether it was from ICE or not, it seems they were getting no answers from the US authorities. Seems they found out through foreign sources.
 
ICE is run by ****ing psychopaths.
 
ICE absolutely has the ability to verify someone's legal status.

They just don't care to actually do it. They have a quota to meet.
 
This seems to be happening more often than you know. These people are under pressure to detain and/or deport a certain number of people. Shortcuts will be taken.

And don't forget how many people were rounded up and sent to CECOT with no due process beyond "he has tattoos". Several are now getting out of that prison, and they tell stories of torture, beating 1-3 times a day.

It may seem hard to believe but that is so pre-2025.

If I was a guessing man, the 82 y.o. started having health issues so rather than let him die in US detention, they shipped him off to Guatemala.

That's what I figured, but it assumes this family's story about his green card is actually the truth.
 
Sick ****ing people.
