A 6-year-old Honduran boy with leukemia who had been held in immigration detention with his family since May was released July 2.
The boy, his mother and 9-year-old sister entered the country legally last fall seeking asylum. Federal agents arrested them as they left an immigration hearing in Los Angeles on May 29. They were held in a privately run family detention center in South Texas. Their release was made public July 3, but their future remains unclear.
They never should have been detained in the first place — hope they sue!
