A 5-year-old immigrant boy, Liam Adrian Conejo Ramos, and his father, Adrian Alexander Conejo Ramos, were taken into custody by ICE in Minneapolis, despite having a pending immigration case that prevents their deportation. The operation has sparked national scrutiny regarding the Trump administration’s deportation policies, particularly targeting families. Currently detained at the Dilley detention center in Texas, the family entered the U.S. in 2024 seeking asylum but faced accusations from DHS regarding the father’s actions during the arrest. While ICE claims they prioritized the father’s arrest, family representatives assert that Liam’s well-being is their primary concern.
