US EditionSpanish Journalist Mario Guevara Has Been in ICE Custody for 100 Days
Mario Guevara, detained despite dismissed charges and bond order, has been held 100 days; his son highlights his role as caregiver and primary journalist for their news site.
- Oscar Guevara, 21, pleaded Tuesday for the immediate release of Mario Guevara, Emmy-winning digital journalist, saying his dad has been his caregiver since a 2021 brain tumor surgery.
- Appeals filings reveal disputes over 2012: DHS says Guevara refused voluntary departure and was ordered removed, while attorneys say negotiations allowed him to stay; the government appealed his bond case after his June 14 arrest.
- All criminal charges tied to the protest have been dismissed, yet the detained journalist was shown in video wearing a 'PRESS' vest before ICE took him into custody, reducing his news output.
- Attorneys have filed a habeas corpus petition and a motion seeking emergency relief in federal court in Waycross to block deportation, while the ACLU fights for Mario's immediate release.
- Free press and civil rights groups say Guevara's case has drawn attention, and advocates warn he could be deported at any moment after more than 100 days in custody, with a September 21 press event.
