Father and son detained by ICE return home to Minnesota

Five-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos and his father, Adrian, asylum seekers from Ecuador, were detained in Texas as part of Trump’s immigration raids but were released after 10 days at Dilley detention centre by US District Judge Fred Biery. Texas Representative Joaquin Castro escorted them home, denouncing the government’s actions as traumatizing children and violating constitutional rights. The incident sparked public outrage, with ICE denying targeting Liam and using him as “bait” while his mother refused to take him. Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar welcomed them home, advocating for the rights of immigrant families.
