Guatemalan Mother Detained After Wrong Turn Near Canada Border - News Facts Network
- On March 8, a Guatemalan mother named Sarahi, along with her daughters aged 1 and 5, were detained by Customs and Border Protection near the Ambassador Bridge in Detroit after accidentally taking a wrong turn towards Canada while driving to Costco.
- Sarahi, who entered the U.S. Unlawfully in 2018, was following GPS directions when the error occurred, leading to the family's detention by immigration agents.
- Sarahi and her daughters were held for five days, during which she reported poor conditions including cold temperatures and lack of medical access, before being transferred to ICE custody and eventually released on March 12, while her 19-year-old brother remains in custody.
- According to Sarahi's attorney, Ruby Robinson, Sarahi felt "kidnapped" and was distressed by the experience, which was also traumatizing for her 5-year-old daughter, and she was handcuffed and screamed at by agents.
- Sarahi is scheduled for a court hearing in June in Detroit immigration court and could face deportation to Guatemala, raising concerns among immigrant advocates about increasingly aggressive immigration enforcement under President Trump's administration, as ICE carried out over 28,000 deportations in the first seven weeks of the administration.
