5:45 am
ringback i was sitting there with my client waiting for his gentle little room in the little room where they bring you in when you have a schedule or a check in. the office or is taking a really long time so already i had that feeling in the pit of my stomach that you know things were not going to go well and the officer walks in with a paper bag and baggage claim tag. and so i did and i knew he was like you know we're going to take your client into custody and my client just the look on his face and the color of his his face just the color was gone he
5:46 am
tried to give me his wife's cell phone number and it was absolutely wrong you know now i'm getting calls about a you know. the wife is struggling financially because he was the only means of support for the family so it's a it's a super tough situation. the wife to go with the girls. are you. hanging in there ahead of you. how old are your daughters at this well from 16 ok. how you thought about what your next move is in terms of i think looking for whatever i can to find veronese you know work and. i haven't been able to find anything and i. you guys have been my clients for a long time you know i know your family i know your daughters i know your story and
5:47 am
i know how far he's come from where he's been you know if he was to win what he needed to do he was working he was going in so much fighting and going to courts and everything and i don't understand it's like to give you hope your kids are all happy we have this hope and then also to me you just go in there and be taken away you know i can't imagine the grief and the sadness that you're going through and the only way that i have been able to understand it is that the current administration has shifted its focus for continuing his process towards a green card through the petition that you filed on his behalf so. we'll keep up the fight because i think.
5:48 am
ok got it. so what are your thoughts in terms of helping this client. to basically not be in her car with her teenage daughters within the next week as seems to be the. the. the fear yasser only the risk at this point is is imminent. what. if you work were. ok. if you work. ok. right you know once he does show up and they ask him hey have you ever you know received any public benefits well no i haven't but has your family well i got deported therefore my wife had to you know whatever. i just i can't even allow

5:51 am
tell them that the family survey you guys did said inside the car. i think you should he keep trying to go. on the doors so you guys could try to see your dad i know you want to give him maybe a suitcase before he leaves us where you would ask more information about if it's possible to do that and when. families do the suitcase you know. thank you so much thank you thank you.
5:52 am
sometimes you think it can't get any worse and then guess what there's like some new interpretation or there's like some new policy and one of the things that we started scene was in increase in apprehensions i had one client for example who was a party to mexico and about 3 weeks ago his former partner called to let us know that unfortunately he had been murdered in mexico and that his body had been found burned in the desert we were like so close to having having him obtain some status in the u.s. . he has 2 children in the u.s. that he left behind dad or you know very young and they will never see their dad
