Family of student deported to Honduras say they were targeted by ICE agents
  • Any Lucia López Belloza, a 19-year-old college student from Babson College, was deported to Honduras after being detained at Boston Logan International Airport while attempting to fly to Texas for a surprise Thanksgiving visit to her family. Despite having a court order that was intended to prevent her removal, she was apprehended by ICE agents and deported within 48 hours of her detention.
  • This incident highlights significant concerns regarding the enforcement of immigration laws, particularly the actions of ICE agents in targeting individuals who may have legal protections. López Belloza's family claims they were specifically targeted by immigration agents, raising questions about the agency's practices and priorities.
  • The deportation of López Belloza reflects broader themes in the ongoing national debate over immigration policy and enforcement, especially in the context of the Trump administration's approach to immigration. This case underscores the challenges faced by students and families navigating the complexities of immigration law, particularly when legal protections appear to be disregarded.
