Everyone's sort of having a good go at the TV station that aired this typical report on an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrest.

Naturally, it has all the elements required for the sort of pathos the news loves to feed its audience - long-time resident of [insert state], member of the community, pillar of society, just a regular family man, apple pie, 'no criminal record,' etc., ad nauseum. 

This one is no different. Check, check, and checkedy check.

This one also seems as if there's an element of cruelty - how does a judge deny a lawful resident his due process? At the time of his initial immigration efforts, he didn't speak English very well. That's on his lousy former attorney, you know.

...Amaury Monsalve, a husband and father of two, has coached baseball in D.C. and Virginia for more than 25 years, including at Alice Deal Middle School, Jackson-Reed High School and Woodson High School. His family said Monsalve, who is originally from Venezuela, is a lawful permanent resident living in Virginia with no criminal record.

On Oct. 19, Monsalve was taken into ICE custody after a judge denied his citizenship case.

...“Amaury’s difficulties stem, according to our examination, from serious errors made by a former immigration attorney more than 20 years ago, when Amaury had limited command of English,” Robert Carmona-Borjas, CEO and co-founder of the Arcadia Foundation, told WTOP. He said Monsalve is a lawful permanent resident who was seeking U.S. citizenship.

'Mom, ICE Took Him'

Monsalve’s family said he had a previously-scheduled hearing Oct. 19 related to his citizenship case. A day before that hearing, Monsalve was stopped by D.C. police while working as a chauffeur, according to his wife of 16 years, Aniushka.

According to a police report, Monsalve was pulled over in a Chevy SUV for allegedly running a red light on the morning of Oct. 18. Police said they found a handgun, a fifth of tequila and a clear bag with a white powder — reportedly determined to be cocaine.

The decision of whether to file formal charges falls on U.S. Attorney for the D.C. Jeanine Pirro. Her office confirmed to WTOP on Monday that it did not file any charges against Monsalve or any of the passengers in the SUV.

The passengers were released, but Monsalve was held overnight until his immigration hearing.

And now that he's in ICE custody, the heartstrings are tugging for a confused, barely English-speaking migrant who's been here for a quarter century and still no comprendos.

And always with the shoddy medical care. Sounds like they need a GoFundMe, and voila. 

They have one of those, too.

...Aniushka said she is “very concerned” about her husband’s well-being in detention. She said Monsalve has told her by phone that he and other detainees are ill and have had difficulty obtaining medical care. She also said she has been unable to create a commissary account to send him money for food and hygiene products.

“He was desperate. He said, ‘What have you done? Have you done something for me?’ And I said, ‘Yes, of course. I told you we did the appeal’. And he said, ‘They’re telling me I have nothing, and they keep bringing me papers to sign,’” Aniushka said.

Aniushka said she and Carmona-Borjas advised Monsalve not to sign documents he did not understand. However, Monsalve later told them detention facility staff returned and had him provide a fingerprint.

You know what's coming, right?

*sigh*

...His green card was revoked following immigration fraud proceedings, and an immigration judge ordered his removal on October 19.

Work authorization or a pending application does NOT make you an American citizen or give you the right to remain in this country.

He remains in ICE custody pending DEPORTATION.

Such a decent, upstanding Virginia Man, yet again.

An illegal alien to begin with because of fraudulent immigration proceedings but also carrying firearms, drugs, and open containers when he was stopped.

WHAT A GUY

The coach every parent wants for their kid, and let's face it...

...Venezuelans know their baseball.

The timing is certainly inauspicious to be in ICE custody, as another ruling came out today which strips yet one more protection from illegals who have been hiding behind activist jurists to stymie attempts to boot them out of the country.

The Supreme Court declined to reinstate a Biden-era rule that allowed judges to temporarily suspend some deportation hearings.

OH, WELL, SHUCKS

Meanwhile, back on the web, that TV station is backpedaling furiously after receiving a fair lashing of...um...warmth in the comments for the generous but not-entirely-complete lead-in to the Virginia Man story.

NOBODY TOLD US!

For every one they catch, another gets turned loose.

Remember last week's Virginia Man, who was arrested while knocking heads off a basically priceless statue outside the Marine Corps Museum in Quantico, Virginia?

Well, ICE issued a detainer on him.

Guess who walked today.

I just want to puke.

The judge says he 'presents no flight risk.'

God, I am so angry.

It's a long, hard slog, but these DHS/ICE/Border Patrol guys, God bless them, just keep on keepin' on. I don't know how it doesn't get too discouraging with all the abuse and sanctuary areas doing things like this.

But they stay the course.

You bet I voted for it.

And I did again today.
