Friend illegally detained by ICE. Frustrated and Angry.
My name is Michael Bollinger, owner of Bollinger Green landscaping. This past Tuesday, my friend of nearly a decade, Raymundo, was detained by ICE after being trailed by two black unmarked SUVs near the ARCO on Artesia Blvd in Gardena. I am absolutely furious and exhausted by this, he is legally present in the States and has valid work authorization, but the system has completely failed him.
His wife and two kids (ages 13 and 9) back in Mexico depend entirely on his income to survive, especially with the severe safety issues in their hometown right now.
They are terrified, and I am the only person they have to handle this nightmare.
I've already paid the retainer for an immigration lawyer and dipped into my savings to handle his month's rent, but the total legal costs are just too steep for me to carry alone. I desperately need help raising funds so he can have a fighting chance. If you can contribute anything at, it would mean the world.
