Giovanna Hernandez-Martinez, a 24-year-old immigration advocate and mental health counselor, is facing deportation after being taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) following a traffic stop in Leeds, Alabama.

She was transported to a facility in Louisiana for deportation hearings.

Leeds Police Chief Paul Irwin stated that detectives observed Hernandez-Martinez driving over 80 miles per hour on Interstate 20 and claimed her vehicle "came within feet of striking other vehicles and erratically changes lanes." She reportedly presented a Mexico-issued identification card during the stop.

Chief Irwin commented on the situation, stating, "It is unfortunate that the driver had not taken the steps necessary to remain in our country legally." He expressed well wishes for Hernandez-Martinez as she faces deportation proceedings.

Any immigrant who advocates for more immigration should be deported.

No driver’s license nor likely any insurance. Glad no one was killed or injured, nor their property damaged.

When the cop is back in the car, it kind of sounds like the K9 in the back is saying “dude, woof, woof, sniff, I smell a lack of documentation for entry...”

WAS SHE INSURED?

ANOTHER REASON WHY MY UNINSURED MOTORIST INSURANCE ON MY TRUCK ==48.8 % OF THE PREMIUM.

I DROVE THAT TRUCK LESS THAN 2000 miles in last 2 years...BUT I OWN MY PROPERTY & CANNOT RISK A LAWSUIT OR LOSS OF MY TRUCK
