Witnesses Watch as Father Detained, Separated From Partner and Son

  • In May, federal authorities took Gonzalo Ladron de Guevara, a lawful permanent resident since 2003, into custody at Chicago O'Hare Airport, where he remains held on federal charges.
  • His detention followed his return from Mexico after scattering his mother's ashes, with scrutiny on green-card holders increasing under the Trump administration.
  • Meanwhile, Gutierrez’s wife and their 9-year-old daughter were detained by ICE after attending an immigration check-in on June 4 and flown to Texas, where they have been held nearly two weeks.
  • A GoFundMe created to fund their legal defense has raised over $7,775, while lawyer fees have already exceeded $4,000, and family petitions to resolve the situation are ongoing.
  • California Senator Tony Strickland attributes such separations to the state's sanctuary law SB54, which limits federal-local cooperation, saying without it the federal government could better remove criminals and increase safety.
