a criminal record he was working he was paying taxes he had a family in the united states so i was not a parody the government was very strict at the beginning now this administration oh everybody is a priority until they realize they don't have beds for that many people and they could not arrest as many people so they're exercising it but but not equally so some will get a break so some are arrested some are not and what has created a lot more confusion for everybody. lawyers such as riot gonzales speak of arbitrary treatment and accuse the authorities of inhumane conditions at their detention facilities. on the one i can see especially when you find out that statistics show that this year already 27 people have died in custody when that was not the number of 4 or 5 presidents in all their presidency so clearly there's a problem. so the. family for
