Luis Alberto Castillo, a father of one from Venezuela … on Feb. 4 was he was on a plane to a U.S. Navy base at Guantánamo Bay in Cuba, best known for a detention center that has long held terrorism suspects accused of launching the deadliest attack on American soil. That day, the Department of Homeland Security declared that those who had been transferred to the island represented “the worst of the worst” and were all members of a Venezuelan criminal group, the Tren de Aragua. He arrived in the United States on Jan. 19th. Given that Mr. Castillo had spent such little time in the United States, I question how the U.S. government could have determined that he was a member of the Tren de Aragua, or was worthy of such harsh treatment. Undocumented immigrants shouldn’t be treated as criminals. This is all discrimination and xenophobia, just because he’s Venezuelan. Return him Venezuela!
