"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

When students continued to refuse to disperse, police individually dragged them away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At one point an officer grabbed me by the back of the head, grabbed me by my hair and threw me face first onto the street,” he said. “At that point I felt something very very hard on the back of my head … basically rubbing my face into the street.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He recalled screaming, “You’re hurting me, why are you doing this?

The students were processed and given an immediate two-week suspension from campus property.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their charges include unlawful assembly, obstructing a public roadway and disobeying a lawful order, according to UCSC spokesman Scott Hernandez-Jason. All but one was cited and released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, Hernandez-Jason defended the police response.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Officers repeatedly tried to deescalate the situation and made clear that blocking this major roadway had to stop or it would lead to arrest,” he said. “Demonstrators locked arms, sat in the roadway, and refused to move back onto the university field.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"James Sirigotis, a teaching assistant and Ph.D. candidate in sociology\"]‘It’s never a problem of not having money, it’s a problem of how that money is being spent.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During major disruptions like this, Hernandez-Jason said, campus police call on other law enforcement agencies to provide additional support, and don’t know the cost until after after the action has concluded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“UCSC’s police officers have a critical role in ensuring safety and security to all on campus. They protect everyone’s ability to exercise the constitutionally protected rights of free expression, speech and assembly,” he said. “These rights do not extend, however, to disrupting regular and essential operations of the university by occupying offices, blocking roads or infringing on the rights of others.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After his release, Sirigotis tried to get medical care for the swelling and cuts on his face, but the suspension prevented him from going to his primary care doctor at the on-campus health center. Instead, he went to urgent care, where a doctor dressed his wounds and confirmed he suffered blunt-force trauma and might have a slight concussion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The university is choosing to spend a tremendous amount of money on police intimidation, police violence, police brutality, against peaceful unarmed students,” said Sirigotis, who also has a 2-inch bald patch on the back of his head where police yanked his hair out. “I think it’s a huge indication of the amount of resources at the UC and that it’s never a problem of not having money, it’s a problem of how that money is being spent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One student also sustained a gash to his face and another student sustained a broken finger, according to a press release from the striking students. “The size and brutality of the police response has been stark,” the release said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/cityonahill/status/1227737905717637120\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hernandez-Jason, though, said many claims of injury have been greatly exaggerated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are aware of many unsubstantiated rumors being spread on social media,” he said. “Anyone who has a complaint about police conduct can submit a\u003ca href=\"https://protect-us.mimecast.com/s/AFTRC829m0ujJJ1MunSRxz?domain=police.ucsc.edu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> report online\u003c/a> and the department will review following standard procedures.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Deborah Gould, an associate professor of sociology, works with Sirigotis and watched his clash with police on Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was a very menacing police presence and I think it really escalated the situation unnecessarily, and people got hurt,” said Gould, who joined students on the picket line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The faculty here realize that this university can not function without the labor of our graduate students, and they need to be paid a living wage for the job they do,” she added.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>‘This Is a Crisis Situation’\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>UCSC graduate students started their grading strike in December, refusing to submit fall quarter grades until they receive a $1,400 monthly raise. Teaching assistants, who usually work 20 hours a week, makes an average of $2,400 a month. In contrast, an average one-bedroom apartment in Santa Cruz rents for $2,600 per month, according to RENTCafé.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"uc-santa-cruz\" label=\"related coverage\"]“The strike is raising really important and fundamental issues in relationship to graduate student economic justice and housing justice in Santa Cruz, one of the most expensive cities to live in in the country,” said T.J. Demos, an art history professor at the university.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The university does, however, waive tuition for grad students who work as teaching assistants, and provides benefits like health insurance and reimbursement for child care expenses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need to be out of rent burden,” said Veronica Hamilton, a teaching assistant who is pursuing her Ph.D. in social psychology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hamilton said she received a disciplinary warning letter from the university last week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are many people who are ready to drop out of graduate school because they can’t afford it,” she said. “This is a crisis situation. And what we need is the administration to prioritize graduate students in their budget.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Hernandez-Jason said the school does not have the authority to change the teaching assistant’s labor contract because it was already negotiated by the union representing graduate students throughout the UC system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hernandez-Jason said the school has been extremely disappointed about the course of action the students have decided to take. “This can have a profound, and perhaps unexpected impact on our undergraduate students, including loss of financial aid, ability to graduate, declare a major, or apply to other programs including graduate school,” he said in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The Associated Press contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

I just didn’t know how or to whom. And so the people I started with were my friends,” she said. “For six weeks, I would sit on the beach and talk with my friends about what to do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was only Ford’s second public appearance since her 2018 testimony during Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings, which resulted in threats to her life and forced her and her family into hiding. Kavanaugh, who was later confirmed as a Supreme Court justice, \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2018/09/27/us/politics/brett-kavanaugh-confirmation-hearings.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">has denied\u003c/a> the allegation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Christine Blasey Ford']‘Ultimately, I decided I did owe it to the citizenry of this country, to future generations and to other people to share the information.’[/pullquote]At a fundraiser hosted by Futures Without Violence, a national nonprofit organization dedicated to ending violence against women and children, the group presented “Courage Awards” to Ford as well as to author and survivor Chanel Miller; and to March for Our Lives activist Tyah-Amoy Roberts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ford, whose appearance was a surprise to audience members, was welcomed with gasps and a standing ovation. She spoke onstage with journalist Cindi Leive, former editor-in-chief of Glamour magazine, saying that even though she has tried to avoid media attention since her testimony, she does make exceptions when a group’s values align with hers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She told Leive that her family “experienced a lot of retaliation,” after her testimony and had to temporarily move out of their house. But, there was a silver lining.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In a way, after I testified, it was a bit of a relief that I had fulfilled my commitment as a citizen and done my duty as a citizen,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s probably people in the audience that have experienced really difficult moments in their lives where there’s a lot of clarification. So what I mean by that is just a clear focus on your priorities and all of the daily stressors and hassles kind of disappear and your true friends sort of step forward,” she said. “And sometimes it’s not the people we thought.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Christine Blasey Ford']‘As psychologists and sociologists, we expect that survivors of sexual assault will experience what we call DARVO. The victim becomes the offender and the offender becomes the victim.’[/pullquote]Ford said her family received support from their community, including her kids’ schools, and that she has been heartened to make new friends — like anti-gun activist David Hogg, who survived the Parkland school massacre.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before she testified, though, Ford said she knew she’d be subjected to attacks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As psychologists and sociologists, we expect that survivors of sexual assault will experience what we call \u003ca href=\"https://dynamic.uoregon.edu/jjf/defineDARVO.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DARVO\u003c/a>,” she said.

However, migrants’ DNA\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> samples are registered and held in perpetuity in the FBI criminal database, the Combined Index Data System (CODIS).

By the way, she also has the BRCA gene or other propensities for medical conditions. It is not simply about identity.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Hank Greely, a bioethicist at Stanford University, worries less than Eidelman about these potential uses. Although it is not explicitly clear what genetic information the government will catalog, experts assume it’s the 20 markers that make up the typical DNA profile in the FBI database. This is not a detailed analysis. It’s much less information than a 23andMe or Ancestry.com test.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you had a kid at the border and wanted to know whether its father was in the CODIS database,” Greely said in an email, “you would likely get hundreds of hits, whether or not the father actually was in the database. That’s not very helpful.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Greely said the government’s efforts to collect DNA are a waste of money because, in his opinion, it’s unlikely the current administration will allow many of the detainees into the country so the likelihood they’ll commit crimes here is also limited.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If there is no good reason to collect personal data, including DNA data, and it isn’t being done voluntarily, then it’s unethical: some risk for no gain is not ethical,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is not the first time DNA collection efforts have alarmed civil rights advocates.

Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah was the lone GOP lawmaker to join Democrats in finding the president guilty of the first charge.The next day, President Trump celebrated his acquittal with a defiant speech from the White House where he railed against the investigations that have dogged his presidency while heaping praise on Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and other political allies. Also this week, Trump delivered his third State of the Union address. He claimed credit for the strong economy and vowed “to never let socialism destroy American health care.” The issue has taken center stage in the 2020 presidential race. Meanwhile, both Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and former South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg are claiming victory in the Iowa caucuses, the results of which were delayed and thrown into confusion amid calls from Democratic National Committee Chair Tom Perez for a recanvassing of the votes.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ron Elving, senior editor and correspondent, NPR\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Carla Marinucci, senior political writer, Politico\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Containing Coronavirus\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The coronavirus epidemic has now spread to more than two dozen countries, infecting more than 31,000 people worldwide so far. Most of the confirmed cases and deaths are in China, the epicenter of the outbreak, where more than 600 people have died from it. In the U.S., there are now 12 confirmed cases, including four in the Bay Area. Last week, Secretary of Health and Human Services Alex Azar declared a public health emergency and announced drastic steps to contain the spread of the coronavirus, including barring entry to non-U.S. citizens who recently traveled to China and a mandatory two-week quarantine for Americans who traveled to Hubei province where the illness has been traced to the city of Wuhan. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">U.S. Rep.

At trial, her lawyers argued that she suffered from postpartum psychosis, a rare medical condition that can occur after childbirth and sometimes result in deadly violence. The case highlights how the legal system in most of the U.S. hasn’t caught up with medical science, while a recent law passed in California now requires screening of new moms for postpartum mental illness. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">April Dembosky, KQED health correspondent\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\n",

He claimed credit for the strong economy and vowed “to never let socialism destroy American health care.” The issue has taken center stage in the 2020 presidential race. Meanwhile, both Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and former South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg are claiming victory in the Iowa caucuses, the results of which were delayed and thrown into confusion amid calls from Democratic National Committee Chair Tom Perez for a recanvassing of the votes.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ron Elving, senior editor and correspondent, NPR\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Carla Marinucci, senior political writer, Politico\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Containing Coronavirus\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The coronavirus epidemic has now spread to more than two dozen countries, infecting more than 31,000 people worldwide so far. Most of the confirmed cases and deaths are in China, the epicenter of the outbreak, where more than 600 people have died from it. In the U.S., there are now 12 confirmed cases, including four in the Bay Area. Last week, Secretary of Health and Human Services Alex Azar declared a public health emergency and announced drastic steps to contain the spread of the coronavirus, including barring entry to non-U.S. citizens who recently traveled to China and a mandatory two-week quarantine for Americans who traveled to Hubei province where the illness has been traced to the city of Wuhan. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">U.S. Rep.

At trial, her lawyers argued that she suffered from postpartum psychosis, a rare medical condition that can occur after childbirth and sometimes result in deadly violence. The case highlights how the legal system in most of the U.S. hasn’t caught up with medical science, while a recent law passed in California now requires screening of new moms for postpartum mental illness. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Douglas Oviedo was among the first asylum-seekers the Trump administration required to wait in Mexico for a decision on their immigration claims. The evangelical pastor from Honduras remembers reporters and immigrant advocates greeting him as authorities escorted him from the U.S. back to Tijuana on Jan. 30, 2019.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That spotlight, he said, led the American Civil Liberties Union to ask him to join a lawsuit seeking to stop the new policy, known as “Remain in Mexico.” And that’s how he eventually met an attorney who would represent him in immigration court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was very lucky,” Oviedo, 36, told KQED. “When I was returned, a lot of people had their eyes on what was happening because it was a new policy of the U.S. government.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But when Saul Arzu, another asylum-seeker from Honduras, was also sent back to Tijuana a month later, no TV cameras were rolling. Arzu became one of tens of thousands of migrants forced to wait for months south of the border, in relative obscurity and unable to find an attorney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I had to be on my own before the judge,” said Arzu, 31. “I was left to defend myself.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oviedo won asylum in the U.S., a feat that so far a tiny fraction of people in the Remain in Mexico program have achieved. Now a resident of the the Bay Area, Oviedo has a job and plans to raise funds to help migrants at the border and the at-risk youth he used to work with in Honduras.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Arzu lost his asylum claim and was deported to Honduras. Back in his hometown of La Ceiba, one of the most violent cities in the country, he wonders if he’ll be able to dodge the gang members who initially made him flee. He’s lost hope, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One year into the unprecedented U.S. policy, officially called the Migrant Protection Protocols, immigration authorities have sent back nearly 60,000 mostly Central American asylum-seekers to Mexico. And they have transformed the prospects for those seeking U.S. protection at the southern border.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Jessica Vaughan, Center for Immigration Studies']'It has made it possible for people who do qualify for asylum, who are genuinely in need of protection, to get relief sooner because they are in more accelerated proceedings.'[/pullquote]Only 187 people — 0.3% of the men, women and children placed in Remain in Mexico — have won the protections so far. Meanwhile, one-third, almost 20,000 people, have lost their claims and were ordered deported, according to researchers at Syracuse University.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For asylum-seekers who are allowed to pursue their claims while residing in the U.S., obtaining protection is more likely: Immigration courts granted asylum in about 30% of cases last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters of the Remain in Mexico policy say it prevents migrants who want to come work in the U.S. from abusing the asylum system, while offering migrants with legitimate claims faster proceedings, as those cases are prioritized by immigration courts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It has made it possible for people who do qualify for asylum, who are genuinely in need of protection, to get relief sooner because they are in more accelerated proceedings,” said Jessica Vaughan, director of policy studies at the Center for Immigration Studies, which favors reducing immigration. “Before they would simply have been put in limbo, waiting for years for their first hearings even.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Critics counter that the policy places vulnerable migrants at risk in dangerous areas of Mexico and erodes due process rights. It’s next to impossible for asylum-seekers in Mexico, who are often living in shelters or in the streets, to find legal help, assemble evidence and present their cases to U.S. courts, according to interviews with migrants and attorneys.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s sort of an asylum process in name only,” said Lisa Knox, an immigration lawyer who represented Oviedo in his claim. “The reality is that, for most people there, they are not getting a fair shake.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. immigration law is complex, and migrants often don’t speak English or understand how to build a successful asylum claim and navigate the court system. Representation by a U.S. immigration lawyer is key to winning the protections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But only 5% of people in the Remain in Mexico program have legal representation. By contrast, 37% of all immigrants fighting deportation cases have an attorney, according to the American Immigration Council.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Lisa Knox, immigration lawyer']'It’s ... an asylum process in name only. The reality is that, for most people there, they are not getting a fair shake.'[/pullquote]To obtain asylum, non-citizens must prove a well-founded fear of persecution in their home country on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group or political opinion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oviedo fled Honduras under death threats by gang members. He said he worked for years getting youth out of gangs and into church in a neighborhood known for murders in broad daylight. After a 15-year-old boy who attended Oviedo’s church was killed, he organized a march to demand the government tackle crime and protect residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was mad because the government wasn’t doing its job to protect youth, to protect a child, to protect families,” said Oviedo, who publicly called for the government to install security cameras and assign more police officers to patrol the streets. “Because of that, the gang started following me and threatening me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In November 2018, Oviedo traveled to the U.S. border as part of a caravan of about 5,000 Central American migrants and reached Tijuana.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Jan. 29, 2019, the same day the Trump administration first put Remain in Mexico into action, Oviedo approached U.S. border authorities and requested asylum. He was returned to Mexico the following day with a court date.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the following nine months in Tijuana, Oviedo co-founded a shelter for migrant women and children that recently opened its doors, and helped organize a festival to ease tensions between long-term residents of the border city and newly arrived Central Americans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Oviedo had a strong asylum case, it wasn’t guaranteed he’d win, said his attorney, who traveled to Tijuana five times to prepare the claim and meet with him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Douglas is an extraordinary individual ... there were articles and witnesses to support his claim,” Knox said. “But it was still a lot of work.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Saul Arzu, whose asylum claim was denied']'We’ve lost hope here. There’s nothing left but to live the time we’ve got left. It’s tough but that’s the reality.'[/pullquote]Saul Arzu also fled Honduras because he feared he’d be killed by gangs. Gang members murdered his cousins, and once they attacked him and slashed him in the head, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Oviedo, Arzu said he participated in protests against the government of President Juan Orlando Hernández, whose brother was convicted on drug trafficking charges last fall in New York. He ties the widespread violence in Honduras to his country’s corrupt government, and he believes the police are in league with organized crime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like most of those in Remain in Mexico, Arzu couldn’t find a pro bono attorney after he first approached U.S. border authorities on Feb. 22. He tried calling U.S. legal nonprofits during the ensuing months he spent in Tijuana, he said, but couldn’t find anyone who would take his case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Arzu said robbers stole his cellphone and $500 in Tijuana. During his immigration court hearing in San Diego, he pleaded with a judge to not return him to Mexico, where he said he didn’t feel safe. Authorities locked him up at the Otay Mesa immigration detention center instead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There, a different judge heard his case and denied his asylum claim.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The U.S. government attorney arguing against him, told the judge that conditions in Honduras were safe enough for him to return, said Arzu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I couldn’t defend myself from what he was saying,” Arzu recalled. “The judge asked me for my argument first, but after the prosecutor’s turn, the judge didn’t give me a chance to speak again.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID='news_11738062' label='Related Coverage']Arzu said that when he first got back to La Ceiba, he tried to stay out of sight of gang members. But now, he said, he’s working whatever odd jobs he can find, because he “can’t stay hidden forever.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve lost hope here. There’s nothing left but to live the time we’ve got left,” Arzu said by phone from Honduras. “It’s tough but that’s the reality.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11800693\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11800693\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/02072020_Oviedo-qut-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Douglas Oviedo, 36, is one of a small group of people whose asylum claims at the U.S-Mexico border have been approved ever since the Trump administration implemented its 'Remain in Mexico' policy, which requires asylum seekers to wait in Mexico while their asylum cases are being evaluated.\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/02072020_Oviedo-qut-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/02072020_Oviedo-qut-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/02072020_Oviedo-qut-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/02072020_Oviedo-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/02072020_Oviedo-qut-1832x1374.jpg 1832w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/02072020_Oviedo-qut-1376x1032.jpg 1376w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/02072020_Oviedo-qut-1044x783.jpg 1044w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/02072020_Oviedo-qut-632x474.jpg 632w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/02072020_Oviedo-qut-536x402.jpg 536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Douglas Oviedo, 36, is one of a small group of people whose asylum claims at the U.S-Mexico border have been approved ever since the Trump administration implemented its 'Remain in Mexico' policy, which requires asylum-seekers to wait in Mexico while their asylum cases are being evaluated. \u003ccite>(Farida Jhabvala Romero/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Oviedo won asylum last September.
