PHOENIX -Marco Tulio Coss learned heartbreaking news for his family Wednesday afternoon.
He walked out of ICE headquarters in downtown Phoenix knowing his days in the United States were numbered.
Thirty to be exact.
"I don't have a criminal record, he said. I'm clean."
His story is like many others: He has been here for 18 years, he has no criminal history other than a minor traffic stop, and he works on a permit issued by the same department that has now decided to kick him out of the country.
His scheduled deportation date is May 12 at 10 a.m.
"I don't know that I would say I'm confident they are going to grant [a stay of removal], said Coss attorney Ravi Arora about the possibility of changing his clients fate.
The day Coss is removed from the country, what is his family supposed to do in his absence?
"[There is a] tool kit that provides guidance for someone who thinks they may be in jeopardy of being deported, said Petra Falcon of Promise Arizona.
She called it a priorities plan, and you can pick it up at Promise Arizona's headquarters.
"it should be in a safe place at home or in a safe place with somebody you trust, she said.
It's a 12-page document to note important information about your family, their medical needs, your property and the location of certain items such as your children's school records, passports and police reports if you were a victim of a crime.
"It could qualify you for applying for status because you suffered a crime or domestic violence, said Falcon.

American citizen Joe Schmoe learned heartbreaking news Wednesday afternoon. Illegal alien Marco Tulio Coss stole his Social Security number and has been using it in order to work illegally in this country. The resulting mess will take years and thousands of dollars for Mr. Schmoe to straighten out. Poor Mr. Schmoe! He only wants a better life.
...but only one person would have to be legal, right?
I think that the U.S. ought to be putting out videos, messages and advertising aimed at people in other countries — particularly those south of the border.
The messages should show examples of families that have suffered by coming illegally to the U.S., and cautionary warnings of what potential illegals will be doing to their families if they come here illegally.
Tagline...
heartbreaking news is now defined as a foreigner faced with a prospect of getting a free ticket back to his home country.
the foreigner should be rejoicing! going back home!
unless the home country is a sh!thole, in which case it would be heartbreaking, indeed...
What's the matter with these people?
If their 'American children' want to come back when they're 18, fine. But they should live with their parents until they're of age. Bye bye illegals - go home and take your families with you.
Like so many others under deportation orders, he’ll likely disappear, change his name and appearance and stay until caught again. But next time getting back will be harder; the WALL will be there!
"Sorry, we're full!"
You Break the Law Every Day Without Even Knowing It James Duane, a professor at Regent Law School and former defense attorney, notes in his excellent lecture on why it is never a good idea to talk to the police: Estimates of the current size of the body of federal criminal law vary. It has been reported that the Congressional Research Service cannot even count the current number of federal crimes. These laws are scattered in over 50 titles of the United States Code, encompassing roughly 27,000 pages. Worse yet, the statutory code sections often incorporate, by reference, the provisions and sanctions of administrative regulations promulgated by various regulatory agencies under congressional authorization. Estimates of how many such regulations exist are even less well settled, but the ABA thinks there are nearly 10,000.If the federal government cant even count how many laws there are, what chance does an individual have of being certain that they are not acting in violation of one of them?
As Supreme Court Justice Breyer elaborates:
The complexity of modern federal criminal law, codified in several thousand sections of the United States Code and the virtually infinite variety of factual circumstances that might trigger an investigation into a possible violation of the law, make it difficult for anyone to know, in advance, just when a particular set of statements might later appear (to a prosecutor) to be relevant to some such investigation.
For instance, did you know that it is a federal crime to be in possession of a lobster under a certain size? It doesnt matter if you bought it at a grocery store, if someone else gave it to you, if its dead or alive, if you found it after it died of natural causes, or even if you killed it while acting in self defense. You can go to jail because of a lobster.
If the federal government had access to every email youve ever written and every phone call youve ever made, its almost certain that they could find something youve done which violates a provision in the 27,000 pages of federal statues or 10,000 administrative regulations. You probably do have something to hide, you just dont know it yet.
Attorney Harvey Silverglate says that the average American commits 3 felonies every day without even knowing it. And thats just federal laws.
