last week, liliana cruz mendez visited ice in williamsburg for a routine check-in. detained her. mcauliffe says his pardon won't necessarily ensure that ice agrees to return her to her family. but he hopes it will send a message that tearing the family apart won't make virginia or the u.s. safer. immigration officials say mendez has been defying a 2006 deportation order.. and that makes her a legitimate target for deportation to el salvador. today -- new protection for domestic violence victims in maryland.
