It was during one of those check ins last month that ICE took Beristain into custody because of an incident in 2000. Roberto and his wife, Helen, were visiting Niagara Falls that year and accidentally crossed into Canada. Officers there detained Roberto when they realized he was in the U.S. illegally. Helen says a lawyer helped get Roberto out on bail, but he was told he had to voluntarily leave the country within a month.

Roberto decided not to self deport because Helen was pregnant at the time. An ICE spokesperson says when Roberto failed to deport himself, his voluntary order revered to a final order of removal, meaning ICE could detain him. They didn’t act on that order for more than a decade.

...

During an interview earlier this month, Helen said she voted for President Donald Trump because she supports his immigration policies. She said criminals should be deported, but she didn’t think her husband would face that fate.

“Trump did say the good people would not be deported, the good people would be checked,” Helen said.

1. If only her own stupidity was as shocking to her.

[PJMcK]

7. That was my first reaction, too

Thanks for voicing that thought, LonePirate.

2. I feel awful for him. I have absolutely no symphony what so ever for her.

8. I wouldn't even write her a jingle, much less a symphony.

Whatsoever is one word.

3. "the good people" .........

4. One by one, the fucking idiots realize they're getting what they voted for

when they thought only those other people would be punished.

I'm sorry poor Helen is stupid. I'm sorry her husband is getting deprorted. I'm most sorry of all that they put a raving lunatic into office.

5. You can't fix stupid.

[RoadhogRidesAgain]

6. Hahaha

She played herself.

[LOL Lib]

9. But seriously the guy had 17 years to get legal.

So fuck him and her both for being stupid.

10. Trump is just getting rid of the bad ones

[Afromania]

12. yea

it's too bad some of these folks are figuring out now(as it happens to them) that "only the bad ones" is just an anagram for "everybody of that ethnicity".

[Afromania]

11. That's awful

In the eyes of the Republicans there is no "good" other, never has been and never will be; and there sure as hell wasn't in anything Trump was saying. Now, you can add her story to the pile of them but not us stories that have been written lately.

13. How do you "accidentally cross into Canada"...go over Niagara Falls in a barrel?

15. Part of Goat Island is in Canada, and you can cross the border on the little footpath (nt)

14. Stick it to the "other" guy!

I'm convinced that many republican supporters keep voting against their own economic interests because they hope and expect that Trump & Friends will stick it to the "other" guy. They are are all bullies supporting bullies. The woman in the story was totally ok if "other" peoples' lives were disrupted, except she didn't expect it to boomerang.

16. I would love to see the shocked look on her face

as she is arrested for harboring an illegal.

18. Those who vote to oppress

put themselves in a mess.
Deplorables are funny.
