El migrante con 20 años de edad llegó a territorio estadounidense buscando asilo pero ahora se encontraba en la custodia de las autoridades migratorias en una cárcel al norte de Sacramento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>El pasado 7 de enero dio positivo a una prueba de COVID-19, unos días después de que comenzara a experimentar síntomas.[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Juan José Erazo Herrera, Inmigrante detenido por ICE en la cárcel del Condado de Yuba \"]‘No es nuestra culpa que nos enfermemos cuando no podemos protegernos.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>El resultado positivo se sintió como un aguijón para Erazo Herrera. Varias veces le exigió a los oficiales del Servicio de control de inmigración y aduanas (o ICE por sus siglas en inglés) y los de la cárcel del Condado de Yuba que hicieran más para prevenir un brote de coronavirus en la prisión. El año pasado, realizó una \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11835611/ice-detainees-at-yuba-jail-press-for-covid-19-protections\">huelga de hambre\u003c/a> en rechazo de lo que él consideraba condiciones inseguras.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No nos escucharon”, dijo Erazo Herrera. “Y en verdad no es justo. No es nuestra culpa que nos enfermemos cuando no podemos protegernos”, agregó.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>El coronavirus se ha propagado rápidamente dentro de la cárcel del Condado de Yuba y alrededor de la mitad de todos los reclusos han sido contagiados. Desde el mes pasado, más de 120 reos del condado y 9 de ICE han dado positivo en pruebas de COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Erazo Herrera cuenta cómo los guardias lo aislaron en una pequeña celda de concreto sin ventanas por 12 días. Cuando llegó a la celda, se acuerda de cómo el espacio estaba en pésimas condiciones, el inodoro estaba muy sucio, moho cubría las paredes y la cama estaba llena de los pelos de otras personas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No voy a mentirte, cuando vi la celda por primera vez, empecé a llorar”, dijo Erazo Herrera, quien proviene de El Salvador. “Intenté quejarme. Me dio tanta tristeza ver qué tan sucio estaba todo”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los guardias le dijeron que esta era la única celda disponible para hacer cuarentena. Menciona que les pidió productos de limpieza y terminó por limpiar todo a pesar de que tenía un intenso dolor de cabeza y le faltaba el aire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A lo largo de la pandemia, un juez federal en San Francisco ha monitoreado las condiciones en la cárcel, la cual está localizada en la ciudad de Marysville. El pasado 23 de diciembre fue cuando el magistrado ordenó a ICE que tomará acción para proteger a los detenidos, incluyendo que la dependencia realizará pruebas de COVID-19 al menos una vez a la semana y que se asegurará que las celdas estén limpias y desinfectadas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vince Chhabria, juez federal de distrito, se involucró luego de que un grupo de inmigrantes detenidos en la cárcel del Condado de Yuba \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11832472/people-are-terrified-sf-judge-orders-covid-19-testing-at-ice-facility\">presentó una demanda en contra de ICE\u003c/a> para que esta agencia comenzará a liberar a inmigrantes bajo su custodia con el propósito de reducir el número de detenidos y por ende facilitar el distanciamiento social.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pero la orden de limpiar las celdas no está siendo cumplida en la cárcel del Condado de Yuba, afirma Kelly Wells, una abogada del equipo migratorio de la Oficina del defensor público de San Francisco, y la representante de Erazo Herrera.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Hemos escuchado varias veces de cada uno de los detenidos que cada vez que los mueven de celda, les toca celdas muy sucias que no han sido limpiadas, mucho menos desinfectadas”, dijo Wells.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11858612\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11858612\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/02/Yuba-County-Jail-Cells.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"577\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2021/02/Yuba-County-Jail-Cells.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2021/02/Yuba-County-Jail-Cells-160x115.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Los reclusos de la cárcel del Condado de Yuba, entre ellos se incluye los detenidos de la agencia migratoria ICE, pueden ser puestos en confinamiento solitario por varios días en ‘celdas de seguridad’, las cuales no tienen ventanas. \u003ccite>(Cortesía de Rosen Bien Galvan & Grunfeld LLP)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Una vocera de la Oficina del alguacil del Condado de Yuba, que supervisa la cárcel, remitió todas las preguntas a ICE.

Varias veces le exigió a los oficiales del Servicio de control de inmigración y aduanas (o ICE por sus siglas en inglés) y los de la cárcel del Condado de Yuba que hicieran más para prevenir un brote de coronavirus en la prisión. El año pasado, realizó una \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11835611/ice-detainees-at-yuba-jail-press-for-covid-19-protections\">huelga de hambre\u003c/a> en rechazo de lo que él consideraba condiciones inseguras.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No nos escucharon”, dijo Erazo Herrera. “Y en verdad no es justo.

Cuando llegó a la celda, se acuerda de cómo el espacio estaba en pésimas condiciones, el inodoro estaba muy sucio, moho cubría las paredes y la cama estaba llena de los pelos de otras personas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No voy a mentirte, cuando vi la celda por primera vez, empecé a llorar”, dijo Erazo Herrera, quien proviene de El Salvador. “Intenté quejarme. Me dio tanta tristeza ver qué tan sucio estaba todo”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los guardias le dijeron que esta era la única celda disponible para hacer cuarentena. Menciona que les pidió productos de limpieza y terminó por limpiar todo a pesar de que tenía un intenso dolor de cabeza y le faltaba el aire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A lo largo de la pandemia, un juez federal en San Francisco ha monitoreado las condiciones en la cárcel, la cual está localizada en la ciudad de Marysville. El pasado 23 de diciembre fue cuando el magistrado ordenó a ICE que tomará acción para proteger a los detenidos, incluyendo que la dependencia realizará pruebas de COVID-19 al menos una vez a la semana y que se asegurará que las celdas estén limpias y desinfectadas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vince Chhabria, juez federal de distrito, se involucró luego de que un grupo de inmigrantes detenidos en la cárcel del Condado de Yuba \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11832472/people-are-terrified-sf-judge-orders-covid-19-testing-at-ice-facility\">presentó una demanda en contra de ICE\u003c/a> para que esta agencia comenzará a liberar a inmigrantes bajo su custodia con el propósito de reducir el número de detenidos y por ende facilitar el distanciamiento social.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In May, a 57-year-old Salvadoran man held at the Otay Mesa Detention Center, near San Diego, became the first person to die from COVID-19 in ICE custody.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These are lives that are at greater risk considering what we know happens at these facilities,” said Thomas, who directs government affairs at the California Immigrant Policy Center in Sacramento. “So if the ball was dropped, it needs to get picked up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state initially prioritized people in congregate settings, including those incarcerated, for vaccine allocation. More than 8,700 state prison inmates — 9% of the total prison population — have received the first round of the vaccine, according to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it is unclear if any immigrant detainees in the state have been inoculated yet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ICE and two private prison companies operating most of the detention facilities in California — the GEO Group and CoreCivic — declined to answer whether any detainees in their custody had received the vaccine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Issa Arnita, a spokesman with Management & Training Corp., which runs the Imperial Regional Detention Facility in Calexico, said while some staffers have received doses, the vaccine “has not yet reached detainees.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Arnita said that the company would offer the vaccine to people held in its facilities once local authorities deliver it. [aside tag=\"ice, immigration, migration\" label=\"More Related Stories\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As soon as we can get more vaccines from the health department, we will make them available to all staff and detainees,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Advocates and lawyers representing ICE detainees in California said they didn’t know of anyone held at these facilities who had received the vaccine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This week, dozens of organizations renewed their calls for state officials to include immigrant detainees in their vaccination plans and disclose the details and timeline, sending a \u003ca href=\"https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hl1OQfsm1vtz0bFw4K7hZixnEBvGW8NLmb9z3YWVIoM/edit?usp=sharing\">letter\u003c/a> to Governor Gavin Newsom and Dr. Tomás Aragón, the head of the California Department of Public Health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Not only have they not been vaccinating folks in ICE detention, but there seemingly does not appear to be a plan in place,” said Hamid Yazdan Panah, who directs advocacy for Immigrant Defense Advocates, one of the letter’s main signatories.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are currently over 1,200 ICE detainees in California. The number of people held in immigration detention centers has plummeted during the pandemic to 14,200 nationwide — from 23,400 last June — in part because courts have ordered ICE to release vulnerable immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, nearly 9,000 people who were or are in ICE detention have tested positive for the virus so far, including hundreds in California, according to agency figures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state has argued in court recently that it has the right to protect people’s safety and health within its borders, even those who are in federal detention facilities. Yet with ICE declining responsibility, and California seeming to take no action, Yazdan Panah worries that immigrant detainees may not be able to receive the vaccine at all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we want to see is California exercising [its] right and ensuring that individuals in these facilities are protected,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bureaucratic confusion comes as the state struggles with one of the slowest vaccine rollouts in the nation.

Yet with ICE declining responsibility, and California seeming to take no action, Yazdan Panah worries that immigrant detainees may not be able to receive the vaccine at all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we want to see is California exercising [its] right and ensuring that individuals in these facilities are protected,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bureaucratic confusion comes as the state struggles with one of the slowest vaccine rollouts in the nation.

The 20-year-old asylum seeker, held by immigration authorities at a jail north of Sacramento, tested positive for COVID-19 on Jan. 7, a few days after his symptoms began.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The diagnosis felt particularly stinging to Erazo Herrera. He had repeatedly called on officials with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Yuba County Jail to do more to prevent a coronavirus outbreak at the facility, including \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11835611/ice-detainees-at-yuba-jail-press-for-covid-19-protections\">waging hunger strikes\u003c/a> last year to protest what he believed were unsafe conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Juan Jose Erazo Herrera, ICE detainee at Yuba County Jail\"]'It’s not our fault we get sick when we can’t protect ourselves.'[/pullquote]“They didn’t listen to us,” Erazo Herrera said in Spanish. “And it’s really unfair. It’s not our fault we get sick when we can’t protect ourselves.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The coronavirus has spread rapidly at the Yuba County Jail, infecting about half of all the people currently locked up there. More than 120 county inmates and nine ICE detainees at the facility have tested positive for COVID-19 since last month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guards isolated Erazo Herrera in a small, concrete cell with no windows for 12 days, he said. When he was first placed there, he said the conditions were squalid, with a filthy toilet, moldy walls and a bed covered in dust and other people’s hair.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not going to lie, when I first saw the cell, I started crying,” said Erazo Herrera, who is originally from El Salvador. “I tried to protest. It made me so sad to see how dirty it was.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guards told him the unit was the only one available for quarantine, he said. He asked for cleaning products and wiped it down himself despite having a severe headache and shortness of breath.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the pandemic, a federal judge in San Francisco has been monitoring conditions at the jail, located in Marysville, and on Dec. 23 he ordered ICE take steps to protect detainees, including testing them at least weekly for the coronavirus, and ensuring cells are cleaned and disinfected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. District Judge Vince Chhabria intervened after immigrants held at Yuba County Jail and another facility in Bakersfield \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11832472/people-are-terrified-sf-judge-orders-covid-19-testing-at-ice-facility\">sued to force ICE to release detainees\u003c/a> in an effort to reduce the detained population and allow for social distancing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the cleaning requirement at Yuba County Jail isn’t being met, said Kelly Wells, an attorney with the San Francisco Public Defender’s immigration unit, who represents Erazo Herrera.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We've heard consistently from every single detainee who has been moved since the order that they have arrived to filthy cells that clearly hadn't even been cleaned, much less disinfected,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11857142\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11857142\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Yuba-County-Jail-Cells.jpg\" alt=\"Exterior doors of isolation cells at Yuba County Jail\" width=\"800\" height=\"577\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Yuba-County-Jail-Cells.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Yuba-County-Jail-Cells-160x115.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">ICE detainees and other people incarcerated at Yuba County Jail can be placed in isolation in windowless 'safety cells' for days at a time. \u003ccite>(Courtesy Rosen Bien Galvan & Grunfeld LLP)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>A spokeswoman with the Yuba County Sheriff’s Office, which oversees the jail, referred questions to ICE. The immigration agency also declined to comment about the conditions of Erazo Herrera’s medical segregation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement cannot comment due to pending litigation,” said ICE spokesman Jonathan Moor in a statement. “However, a lack of comment should not be construed as an agreement with or stipulation to any allegations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearly 9,000 people have tested positive for COVID-19 while in ICE detention, according to agency \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/coronavirus#detStat\">figures\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ICE detention centers must ensure that medical isolation is “operationally distinct” from any punitive form of housing, according to the agency’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/doclib/coronavirus/eroCOVID19responseReqsCleanFacilities.pdf\">pandemic response requirements\u003c/a>. For instance, facilities must provide detainees with access to TV, recreation and books to the fullest extent possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But immigrants held at various detention centers, including private prisons and county jails, have reported that ICE is \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11841120/ice-misusing-solitary-confinement-for-covid-19-quarantine-detainees-say\">misusing solitary confinement\u003c/a> for COVID-19 quarantine. Erazo Herrera said the 12-day quarantine he experienced felt like a punishment, and his mental health deteriorated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Related Coverage' tag='immigration']He was kept in the cell alone, 22 hours per day, he said. For days, there was nothing for him to do to pass the time. The jail eventually allowed him to have books friends outside the jail sent him, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That cell is not for a human being, it’s like for keeping a dangerous animal locked up. There’s no TV, there’s nothing,” said Erazo Herrera. “You start feeling so depressed that you think about killing yourself. You wonder what you’ve done to deserve to be treated this way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He was released from medical segregation last week and said he no longer feels severe COVID-19 symptoms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since April, the ICE detainee population at Yuba County Jail has decreased from 144 to 16 people. Judge Chhabria ordered the agency to release more than 50 immigrants from the facility. Others were transferred, deported or released by ICE, which can free individuals after assessing their public safety and flight risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorney Wells said conditions are so miserable that some immigrants held at Yuba County Jail have given up and agreed to be deported after just one month in detention. But Erazo Herrera has endured three years at the jail as he waits for his asylum case to be decided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Juan Jose has not agreed to deportation because he really is in a dire situation,” said Wells. “In addition to the abuse that he suffered by his mother, he was also repeatedly beaten by gang members and threatened with death.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Erazo Herrera fled El Salvador and crossed the U.S. border without a parent when he was 16. Officials with the Office of Refugee Resettlement, the agency responsible for caring for unaccompanied migrant minors, took him into custody and subsequently released him to an older brother in New York, said Wells.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Erazo Herrera was involved in a robbery, for which he served time at a juvenile facility. When he turned 18, ICE detained him and sent him to the Yuba jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11857138\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1200px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11857138\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Herrera-Snow.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"821\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Herrera-Snow.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Herrera-Snow-800x547.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Herrera-Snow-1020x698.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Herrera-Snow-160x109.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Juan Jose Erazo Herrera plays in the snow in New York, where he lived with his brother before his involvement in a robbery led him to be detained by ICE. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Juan Jose Erazo Herrera)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The crime wass a mistake Erazo Herrera said he frequently regrets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve paid for it.

I’m not the same kid I was then.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recently, a judge in Yuba County Superior Court granted Erazo Herrera special immigrant juvenile status, reserved for undocumented immigrants under age 21 who were abused by a parent, and for whom returning to their home country is not in their best interest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The classification is not enough for ICE to release him from detention, said Wells, but it opens the door for him to apply for a green card. Still, that may take years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Erazo Herrera hopes that when he can eventually leave the detention center, he’ll have a chance go to school, work, and one day start an organization that supports young undocumented migrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’d like to help other kids who’ve gone through similar circumstances as me,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

But Erazo Herrera has endured three years at the jail as he waits for his asylum case to be decided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Juan Jose has not agreed to deportation because he really is in a dire situation,” said Wells. “In addition to the abuse that he suffered by his mother, he was also repeatedly beaten by gang members and threatened with death.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Erazo Herrera fled El Salvador and crossed the U.S. border without a parent when he was 16. Officials with the Office of Refugee Resettlement, the agency responsible for caring for unaccompanied migrant minors, took him into custody and subsequently released him to an older brother in New York, said Wells.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Erazo Herrera was involved in a robbery, for which he served time at a juvenile facility.

Still, that may take years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Erazo Herrera hopes that when he can eventually leave the detention center, he’ll have a chance go to school, work, and one day start an organization that supports young undocumented migrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’d like to help other kids who’ve gone through similar circumstances as me,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Christian Laporte, 19, was returning to attend classes at Diablo Valley College in Pleasant Hill, after spending the Christmas holidays in Haiti with his family, according to attorney Milli Atkinson, who is representing the brothers. She said Laporte’s younger half-brother, Vladimir Fardin, was accompanying him for a visit and had a tourist visa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When they arrived at SFO Sunday afternoon from Haiti via a flight from Mexico, immigration officials refused to let the brothers enter the U.S. due to visa problems, according to a spokesman for U.S. Customs and Border Protection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Atkinson said the pair was held at the airport for more than 24 hours, their visas were taken away and they were not permitted to speak to her or to family members.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Milli Atkinson, legal director, S.

He was eventually able to speak to his mother, after arriving at a facility in San Diego run by the Office of Refugee Resettlement, part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Designating Fardin an unaccompanied minor was unnecessary and could lead to a long and damaging separation, said Atkinson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This system is designed to protect children from trafficking.

She said the boys have a deep bond and the forcible separation could be crushing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We know the conditions for children in detention are not the best, they are not good,” said Etienne. “Children have died. They are left scarred. They are traumatized. A lot of things are happening that are horrible with children in detention. … And we don’t see that being any different for Vladimir.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11856297\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11856297\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Haitian-Brothers-Christmas.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1152\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Haitian-Brothers-Christmas.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/Haitian-Brothers-Christmas-160x230.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Christian Laporte, 19, and his brother Vladimir Fardin, 9. The brothers, who were traveling with U.S.-issued visas, were denied entry to the U.S. and separated by immigration officials at SFO after arriving on a flight Haiti via a flight from Mexico on Sunday. Fardin was sent to a migrant shelter by himself. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of the Family)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Etienne said the brothers have traveled between Haiti and the U.S. repeatedly over the years, always legally. Laporte had spent his last two years of high school at a boarding school in New England on a student visa, then decided on California for college.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He’s interested in doing something in the sciences … and we’re always saying that California has some of the best science programs,” she said. “So he came here for school.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Diablo Valley College confirmed that Laporte was a student last fall and is enrolled for this spring semester, but said he had applied as a domestic student.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CBP officials say Laporte presented an F-1 student visa at SFO, but said he was missing “other required admissibility documentation” and agreed to withdraw his application to enter the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Etienne and Atkinson say they tried frantically to contact the college to straighten out the paperwork but did not succeed, due to the long holiday weekend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CBP officials said they found Fardin was found “inadmissible” during an interview at the airport.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was determined the minor had previously been attending elementary school in California on a B-1 tourist visa, violating the terms of that visa, and was intending to resume his schooling, again in violation of his visa,” according to the CBP statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The statement went on: “CBP officers acted with professionalism, integrity and in accordance with federal laws and regulations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Using Discretion to Separate a Family\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Atkinson said it was wrong for officials to separately interrogate a 9-year-old child. She said Fardin had never overstayed a visa and if he had attended school at some point, it was an honest misunderstanding of the terms of the visa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Related Coverage' tag='family-separation']She added that immigration officials have a lot of leeway in how they handle visa irregularities at ports of entry, and could have warned the family about tourist visa rules and allowed the brothers into the country conditionally while Laporte sorted out his student visa paperwork.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Every step of the way they had a great deal of discretion and in every instance they used that discretion to separate these children and prevent the 9-year-old from returning to his family in a safe way,” said Atkinson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She added that since the brothers’ experience came to light, other immigration attorneys are sharing stories of Haitian and African immigrants traveling with visas being denied entry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They’re both Black and they’re from Haiti,” Atkinson said, making reference to then-President Donald Trump’s widely reported 2018 remark that Haitians, Salvadorans and Africans are from “shithole countries” and that the U.S. would be better served with more immigrants from Norway.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know, we have to question whether or not this would have happened to two children from Sweden coming to return to school,” Atkinson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The family is urgently seeking Fardin’s release, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",
