Eric Lee: I’m Sharing the Story of Five-Year-Old Twins Detained Unjustly — ‘We Must Fight for Their Release‘

‘This is a family that has been persecuted by the Trump Administration‘
By Grabien Staff

EXCERPT:

Lee: “Well, it was and if I can show an image that my five year old client drew today, that she wanted me to show this program, their name is the elgamals. They’ve been detained in dili for eight months. They are two, five year old twins. You can see at the top. I am five years old and the sad detained children behind bars are saying, let us go, let us go. This is a family that has been persecuted by the Trump Administration, not for anything that they did, but because of the crimes of a relative. They are suffering immensely, calling almost every day, begging for help, begging for the American population to pay attention to the conditions that exist inside this facility. And last week, an immigration judge denied them bond, claiming that because they had insufficient assets and insufficient property that these children were going to remain in detention, possibly for years, as we continue to exhaust their appeals. Their name is elgamal. We urge everybody who’s watching to fight for their release and for the release of every single child, mother and father in this terrible facility.”
