US EditionICE Detains Marine Corps Veteran’s Wife Who Was Still Breastfeeding Their Child
- Marine Corps veteran Adrian Clouatre's wife, Paola, was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement last month in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and is now facing deportation.
- The detention followed a 2018 deportation order after Paola's mother missed an immigration hearing, and policies no longer exempt families of military personnel from enforcement.
- Paola, a 25-year-old Mexican national who entered the U.S. as a minor seeking asylum and married Adrian in 2024, sought a green card to live and work legally but remains incarcerated in a rural ICE center in Monroe.
- Adrian pledged to post a $50,000 bond and accompany Paola himself, while she has requested ICE to allow her to leave voluntarily; however, the agency emphasized it must uphold legal procedures amid more than 26,000 deportation cases currently underway.
- The case highlights reduced discretion in immigration enforcement for military families during the Trump administration's push to arrest 3,000 people daily and tensions over recruiters falsely implying immigration benefits.
