Child Murdered By Abusive Uncle....After ICE Deported The Mother And Wouldn't Send The Child With Her

[Alicia J]

This is a particularly sickening story. Punishing illegal immigrants with no criminal record is all fun and games to ICE and the sick MAGA movement.

The deported mother begged ICE to let her take her young 2 year old son back to Honduras with her, because she knew her uncle was very abusive to children. ICE made no effort to help her young child living under these horrible circumstances.

And Orlin, the 2 year old child was a U.S. citizen, by the way.

Cruelty is the entire point of the MAGA movement. Gross incompetence is also an invaluable asset in the eyes of MAGA.

After U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detained his mother, 2-year-old Orlin Hernandez Reyes moved into a shed.

His uncle, Samuel Maldonado Erazo, was charged with taking care of the toddler and his three cousins, the oldest of whom was 7, while Orlin’s mother and her sister waited in ICE detention to be deported to Honduras.

Maldonado had once served in the Honduran military, a co-worker later told investigators, and now lived in the Florida Panhandle. He was separated from Orlin’s aunt, and police said he drank heavily and whipped the children with a wire. Orlin repeatedly endured the worst of the abuse.

An autopsy showed he had multiple broken bones. There were signs his tiny body had been sexually battered. Authorities allege Maldonado repeatedly struck Orlin in the head, stomped on his body and burned his skin with a lighter. His hands bore bruises, a sign that Orlin had tried to shield himself from the blows. The coroner listed his cause of death as multiple blunt force traumas.
Maldonado has been charged with murder and pleaded not guilty.

In a statement a week after Orlin died, acting ICE director Todd M. Lyons berated Orlin’s mother, Wendy Hernandez Reyes, alleging that she had “abandoned” her child to the man who allegedly killed him — an undocumented immigrant who “never should’ve been in this country in the first place,” but was nonetheless allowed to care for the children while Orlin’s mother was in detention.
“Reyes chose to leave her son here with a violent murderer who took his life,” he asserted.

But a review of court records and the mother’s own account contradict ICE’s narrative and raise questions about how the Trump administration is deporting scores of parents, many without their children. Hernandez was detained by a sheriff’s deputy in Alabama while on her way to work. Local law enforcement agencies are increasingly carrying out immigration enforcement as part of the president’s mass deportation campaign.

That story says that the deported mother herself chose to leave the child with the abusive uncle, who should have never been allowed to stay in the country in the first place.

Who is he cutie with Trump in your avatar?

It doesn't say that. You lie as always, troll.

Where does it say that? The lie that ICE director Todd Lyons told above?

From the story. --

Inside a Louisiana detention center, Hernandez said she made constant requests through an ICE-issued tablet to be reunited with her son. She did not want to leave the U.S. without him.

On the day she was deported, the tablet went dark. She said she and other crying mothers were shackled and loaded onto the planes without their children. One had recently given birth and her breasts were heavy with milk.

“I told them to help me with my boy,” Hernandez said. “I needed him.”

She was deported on Jan. 26, without her passport or other documents needed to prove her parentage and arrange Orlin’s return, Hernandez said. ICE did not respond to questions about that allegation, saying in a news release that Hernandez “chose not to take her U.S. citizen child with her.”

Hernandez said she scrambled to get the Honduran government to issue new documents and stayed in touch with Orlin by phone. Their conversations were often brief and she said neither Orlin nor Maldonado indicated anything was wrong. He turned 3 years old in February without her.

Sounds like another Florida death penalty case. It would appear that Maldenado is a waste of air and water, as a specimen, no longer exactly human.

So, it's he said/she said.

The she being an abusive illegal alien mother and the he being a federal law enforcement officer.

Should the abusive uncle be deported?

ICE is saying this:


“This crime is absolutely sickening,” said ICE Director Todd M. Lyons. “This little boy suffered extensively and died when his mother abandoned him to Maldonado-Erazo’s ‘care’ — and Maldonado-Erazo himself is an illegal alien who never should’ve been in this country in the first place. I encourage parents to self-deport with their children, but even if they choose not to do that, ICE gives them the opportunity to be removed with their kids. But despite that option, Reyes chose to leave her son here with a violent murderer who took his life.”


Mother now contradicts this, but she may not be telling the truth of course.

No, the court records show that Lyons is lying.

The she being an abusive illegal alien mother and the he being a federal law enforcement officer.

Don't talk to me anymore. You just make shit up like the hopeless, pathetic MAGA troll that you are.
