Una familia estadounidense, compuesta por cuatro miembros, fue arrestada por agentes del Servicio de Inmigración y Control de Aduanas (ICE) en su casa en Gary, Indiana. El incidente ocurrió el pasado 23 de octubre cuando la familia recibió una visita inesperada de los agentes.
El joven Arnoldo Carrillo Jr., de 26 años, dijo que escuchó a alguien gritar "¡Alguaciles de Estados Unidos! ¡Abran la puerta!" y poco después vio luces en su ventana. Los agentes lo agarraron y lo sacaron de su casa, lo tumbaron en el suelo y le pusieron esposas.
La familia Carrillo, compuesta por Arnoldo Jr., su padre Rosario, su madre Martha y su hermana Saraí, fueron arrestados debido a problemas con su estatus migratorio. Rosario y Martha son ciudadanos mexicanos que se establecieron en el norte de Indiana hace varios años.
El incidente ha dejado a la familia traumada y temerosa por el futuro. Su hija mayor, Saraí, dijo que fue dolorosa ver a su familia esposada y separada. La familia ha creado una página de recaudación de fondos para ayudar a pagar los gastos legales.
El caso ha generado controversia en la comunidad latina en Chicago, donde la familia se estableció hace años. El Servicio de Inmigración y Control de Aduanas (ICE) no ha respondido a las solicitudes de comentarios sobre el incidente.
La familia Carrillo busca justicia y apoyo para su caso. Arnoldo Jr. dijo que desearía que ninguna familia tuviera que experimentar el dolor de lo que le sucedió y que "estén en paz" si los agentes de ICE los llevaban a México, donde tienen familiares que pueden recibirlos con apertura y amor.

 This is so messed up... I mean, can you even imagine being woken up by the sound of "Immigration agents! Open the door!" and then having your family ripped away from you?

The fact that Rosario and Martha are US citizens who have been living here for years and still get caught up in this mess is just infuriating. And what really breaks my heart is Saraí's description of seeing her family handcuffed and separated - it's like something out of a nightmare.

We need to be talking about systemic change here, not just sympathy for the families affected by ICE's actions. Can't we do better than this?

 It's like something out of a movie, but it's real life for this family. The fact that they were all taken away and had to be cuffed like prisoners is just heartbreaking.
