At least the reporter called them illegal immigrants and not undocumented victims.
One of the articles last week after the first person was arrested, made a reference to the fact that if he posted bail, “there was a hold on him by another agency”. Never did it say he was illegal or ICE had a hold on him.
Police last week arrested Ricardo Gonzalez-Mendez on a charge of giving a false name when police questioned him on the family's disappearance.
Gonzalez-Mendez is in the country illegally, police said, but had been hired by the family for construction work.
They were from Brazil. If they would have been from Mexico all bets are off.
