Mario had the right to work and report in the U.S. at the time he was arrested for livestreaming a protest in June.
He was held for over 100 days in ICE detention, and he did not have the chance to say goodbye to his family in person before being deported.

4/ Some ICE officers on the scene reacted emotionally to the incident. One said: “What the fuck?” Another told me: “This is a real problem.“

3/ An agent then appeared to shove people away from the elevator entrance, which led to Elibol falling to the ground, as footage captured by photographer Stephanie Keith shows.

2/ Journalist L. Vural Elibol and other photographers apparently wanted to understand why ICE agents were following a woman into a public elevator. As they tried to enter the elevator, a supervisor from the ICE team at the New York Field Office shouted, “Get out the fucking elevator!”

3/ Stacy Scott, the public defender whose office covers that county, said it's a jarring and confusing new rule. "All of a sudden, they’re just not in the jail anymore [...] We don’t know where they are."

2/ In a follow-up to our recent investigation on the practice, @karanewhouse.bsky.social and I found that in at least one FL county -- Alachua -- the sheriff's office is no longer even telling the court when ICE issues a detainer for a defendant and takes them into custody.

@karanewhouse.bsky.social and I looked into this key method the Trump administration has used to fuel mass deportations, and how it has impacted a local family: suncoastsearchlight.org/ice-jail-bon...

Some of the people deported never get their day in court. For those who are taken by ICE after paying their bond, local criminal cases remain unresolved. Those cases sometimes turn into bench warrants as defendants legally presumed innocent are unable to appear in court.

The system overwhelmingly targets people without serious criminal records. Less than half of people apprehended by ICE in Florida and later deported had any criminal convictions, and of those who did, most were for nonviolent offenses.
