They were released to pursue an asylum case, and later adhered to all court orders and appearance dates, according to the Chronicle. Laura’s mother, Dora Alvarado, told the Chronicle that it became dangerous for them to stay in El Salvador after one of their family members testified against a gang member. The family has lost uncles and cousins due to gang retaliation, Alvarado said. Maradiaga said that they had decided to come to the U.S. after her 15-year-old sister, Adamaris Alvarado, admitted to their mother that a gang member had been harassing her and threatened to kill the family. The family’s lawyer, Silvia Mintz, said that she blames the Justice Department body that oversees immigration court for not taking responsibility for the situation. “This mistake done by the immigration court has put this family in jeopardy,” Mintz said. “They will be separated if this is not stopped.” Chief Acevedo agrees. “Keep them together and if they don’t meet asylum requirements deport them as a family unit,” the police chief wrote.

We need comprehensive immigration reform but both major political parties have failed to address this problem because it gives tnem an issue to pander to their respective base. 3,264 5:05 AM - Apr 12, 2019 Twitter Ads info and privacy 756 people are talking about this
