ICE Detains Construction Supervisor at Court Hearing, Deports Despite Legal Status
Apr 12, 2025·Location: Colorado
Country of origin: Mexico

Hugo, a father of five and husband of a U.S. citizen veteran who had lived in the U.S. since age 16, was detained by ICE at a courthouse during what should have been a final hearing for permanent residency. Despite being in an active legal process and authorized to be in the U.S., officials ordered him to continue his case from Mexico and deported him. ICE later admitted the detention was a mistake, but Hugo has been separated from his family.
