High School Student Detained By ICE Released From Inhumane Conditions

The high school student in Massachusetts who was arrested and kidnapped by Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) on his way to volleyball practice was released after six days of detention on Thursday after a judge granted him bond.

Marcelo Gomes da Silva, 18, who came to the U.S. from Brazil at the age of 7, was detained by ICE last Saturday. The agents were looking for Marcelo’s father, who owns the car that his son was driving. He had parked in a friend’s driveway and was headed to practice when ICE agents pulled him over, arrested, and detained him. The student did not even know about his own immigration status because he was so young when he arrived in the United States.
