Speaker 1: Pushkin. Hello, Hi, my wife, Hi, my husband. How are you.
Speaker 2: I'm getting through?
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you wanted to talk I did.
Speaker 3: I feel like we haven't had much of a chance
Speaker 3: to connect over the last couple of weeks because there's
Speaker 3: been a lot going on here.
Speaker 4: Here is Minneapolis, where I live, and the epicenter of
Speaker 4: what the Trump administration is calling Operation Metro Surge. Since
Speaker 4: it all began with the regular business of work, childcare
Speaker 4: and running a household, Emily and I haven't really had
Speaker 4: a chance to sit down and actually talk. I knew
Speaker 4: she had a lot she wanted to tell me, so
Speaker 4: I asked her to start at the beginning.
Speaker 3: On Wednesday, January seventh, I had dropped Aggie EF at school,
Speaker 3: and I was driving down thirty six, which is a
Speaker 3: one way.
Speaker 2: There were I don't know.
Speaker 5: If it was six or eight vehicles.
Speaker 3: Coming directly toward me, going the wrong way down a
Speaker 3: one way at full speed, and I really thought I
Speaker 3: was going to have a head on collision. Then they
Speaker 3: just suddenly stopped, and then a bunch of men started
Speaker 3: running out of the cars and they were all masked
Speaker 3: and all the vehicles were unmarked. My brain just wasn't
Speaker 3: connecting what was happening? And then I saw two women
Speaker 3: running toward this scene with whistles, and then somewhere in
Speaker 3: my head it clicked like, oh, this is an ice raid.
Speaker 3: I didn't even know exactly what that meant, but I
Speaker 3: just felt so clearly like something wrong is happening, and
Speaker 3: so I parked and I jumped out. I ran up
Speaker 3: to the building and they were all pulling away the
Speaker 3: woman who had a really little, like five pound dog.
Speaker 3: One of the ice agents just swerved right at the dog,
Speaker 3: and I was really emotional because I was still had
Speaker 3: a lot of adrenaline. I was pending on the one
Speaker 3: when they almost hit Yeah, yeah, yeah. One of the
Speaker 3: women there hugged me and she just kept saying, no,
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 6: I said, who do they think they are?
Speaker 2: Who do they think they are?
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, it's just too much.
Speaker 5: I mean that's when everything just like exploded.
Speaker 2: I got home, and you know, I.
Speaker 3: Had news on the background, and I saw that a
Speaker 3: woman had been shot dead, and that turned out later
Speaker 3: that this was Renee Good and she had just dropped
Speaker 3: her kid off from school too. She was shot about
Speaker 3: forty minutes after I had that encounter, about.
Speaker 2: Four blocks away. I don't know.
Speaker 3: I went to the vigil that night. Okay, there were
Speaker 3: a lot of people there. I think everybody there really
Speaker 3: felt an obligation.
Speaker 2: To be there.
Speaker 3: While I was there, I got a text from Katie,
Speaker 3: my sister, telling me that ice had showed up at
Speaker 3: Theo's school. THEO is her fourteen year old nephew, and
Speaker 3: that they had pepper sprayed a crowd of teachers and students.
Speaker 3: So she texted me that and then wrote, I have
Speaker 3: no idea how to process this with my child?
Speaker 6: Learn what ice was the thing?
Speaker 2: When did you learn that ice was a thing?
Speaker 5: I don't do you remember now?
Speaker 7: Do you?
Speaker 2: And Aggie?
Speaker 3: You know, Aggie's nine, and so it's that's been one
Speaker 3: of the really hard things here is to know what
Speaker 3: do you tell your kid. I've been trying to talk
Speaker 3: to him about it just as honestly as possible, with
Speaker 3: trying to emphasize you know that he's safe. But even
Speaker 3: if he is safe, there's a lot of kids right
Speaker 3: now around this city his age who aren't. And that's
Speaker 3: how do you explain that?
Speaker 4: You know, you told Aggie about Renee Good?
Speaker 1: Yes, and what was that like?
Speaker 3: I first told him that a woman had been shot
Speaker 3: by ice. Then the next day, Julian came over and Eli,
Speaker 3: Julian's dad said something to me about, oh, and you
Speaker 3: encountered them that morning in front of Aggie.
Speaker 2: And so then Aggi was like, wait, what you're head
Speaker 2: right now?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm okay, Umber.
Speaker 5: You wouldn't have stopped if I was in the garden.
Speaker 3: No, no, And we talked about it for a couple
Speaker 3: of minutes and then he said, okay, I think I
Speaker 3: think we need.
Speaker 2: To stop talking about this now. And so I respected
Speaker 2: that and stopped talking about it.
Speaker 5: So then the Thursday and Friday after Rene Good was killed,
Speaker 5: schools were canceled across the city because it just wasn't safe.
Speaker 5: I stayed home with Aggi and some of his friends
Speaker 5: came over, and you know, throughout the day we would
Speaker 5: be player, the kids would be playing, and they would
Speaker 5: just they'd be fine, and then they would say, it's
Speaker 5: so sad, like this is so sad that I was
Speaker 5: murdered somebody.
Speaker 1: This is what Aggie's friends are saying.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I actually have a really clear memory that
Speaker 3: day we were working with the hot Glugu and Julian
Speaker 3: somehow cut his hand, and the concern that they all
Speaker 3: just sort of rallied around him and were so worried
Speaker 3: about his hand.
Speaker 1: Julian, Yeah, he's like the mister tough guy.
Speaker 8: I know.
Speaker 3: And then there was this moment after I bandaged it
Speaker 3: up that we all have never had a moment with
Speaker 3: the boys like this where we all sort of like
Speaker 3: hugged each other.
Speaker 1: The boys went for this, they allowed this.
Speaker 5: Yeah, And I do think it was just like this.
Speaker 3: Moment of vulnerability that we were all feeling such a weight,
Speaker 3: you know that it just a lot us to have
Speaker 3: this moment of coming together.
Speaker 2: It was really beautiful.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 5: I mean everything is completely overwhelming, but you still have
Speaker 5: to eat, you still have to walk the dog, and
Speaker 5: you know, kids are still kids. That next morning, I
Speaker 5: was laying in bed and Aggie came in wearing a
Speaker 5: captain's hat and a suit jacket and started wrapping about yachts.
Speaker 6: Yas I want for my birthday. Yah, I can get it.
Speaker 6: Cookie Vaca yachts.
Speaker 3: You're really right, Yes, it was all about going on
Speaker 3: yachts and having cookie vacs.
Speaker 1: I have a cookie vaca right now.
Speaker 4: I wanted from my birthday.
Speaker 3: Yats.
Speaker 5: You don't need to do back yachts Tuesday.
Speaker 3: This is Tuesday, the thirteenth, less than a week since
Speaker 3: Renee Good had been killed once again. I had dropped
Speaker 3: Aggie off at school and I was driving home and
Speaker 3: suddenly all these vehicles start swarming around my car and
Speaker 3: I'm a little bit boxed in, and then I started
Speaker 3: hearing the whistles, and so I decide to get out.
Speaker 3: There's ice agents all over. They're going up to an
Speaker 3: apartment building yelling you got to open up the door,
Speaker 3: and you know, the crowd is slowly growing, but pretty quiet.
Speaker 3: And then they come out of the apartment building and
Speaker 3: they have two guys who to me looked like children,
Speaker 3: early twenties.
Speaker 2: At the oldest. But I'd be surprised if it was
Speaker 2: even that.
Speaker 3: One of them is wearing a T shirt and shorts,
Speaker 3: even though it's you know, it's very cold outside.
Speaker 1: I mean it's so cold.
Speaker 4: It's the kind of cold that you know, you take
Speaker 4: your gloves off for a few seconds and your fingers
Speaker 4: just really hurt, Like it is hard to be outside
Speaker 4: in this weather.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, And when we see the kids, we just
Speaker 3: start screaming.
Speaker 2: Shame on you.
Speaker 3: I'm a mom, you know, like, shame on you is
Speaker 3: the words that come to mind, and we're yelling, you know,
Speaker 3: their kids and sorry, this is gonna be the hardest
Speaker 3: part for me. So everything else I should just say. First,
Speaker 3: like everything escalated very quickly. It just becomes chaos where
Speaker 3: ice agents are just pushing people, shoving people, kicking them,
Speaker 3: you know, they have them down on the ground. I
Speaker 3: can't even describe the feeling where like literally three feet
Speaker 3: from me, I see a man, like just a Minneapolis
Speaker 3: guy on the ground and an agent just pepper spring
Speaker 3: him straight in the face from three inches away, And
Speaker 3: I mean every part of you just wants to run
Speaker 3: and just like tackle that guy, but you know you can't,
Speaker 3: and so you just yell.
Speaker 2: Because what else do you do.
Speaker 3: But just to stand there and see somebody brutalized like that.
Speaker 2: You just feel so powerless.
Speaker 3: So I'm standing on the corner and they're trying to
Speaker 3: get this car to go. This woman in a car
Speaker 3: and there's nowhere she can go. I mean, it was
Speaker 3: just chaos, and they're screaming at her. There's like fifteen agents,
Speaker 3: you know, just surrounding her car, screaming at her.
Speaker 2: Window.
Speaker 3: The car then help them window. All of a sudden,
Speaker 3: they break her passenger side window. Then they go around
Speaker 3: to her side and forcibly pull her out of the car,
Speaker 3: and she's screaming. And then they've just got her by
Speaker 3: all fours and start carrying her away. And then I
Speaker 3: see that they have a white haired man that they
Speaker 3: are carrying by all fours, and they open the back
Speaker 3: door of a black suv and literally like stuff him in.
Speaker 3: That's the only language I know how to use. Sorry,
Speaker 3: So they stuff him into the vehicle. And then.
Speaker 2: And then the first I just hear.
Speaker 3: A bunch of like pa pa pa, pa, pa pa pa,
Speaker 3: and I figure out that these are I guess what
Speaker 3: are flash bangs, And smoke just starts to pour out,
Speaker 3: and then it hits hits your throat first, and it
Speaker 3: starts to burn and you're starting to cough and you're like, oh,
Speaker 3: that's strong. And then it hits your face, the skin
Speaker 3: on your face, and then your eyes eyes start to burn,
Speaker 3: and for a second you're like, oh, this hurts, but
Speaker 3: it's okay. And then each second that passes, you're just like, oh,
Speaker 3: it's not okay.
Speaker 2: Oh it's really not okay. And then you're just like.
Speaker 8: Fucked.
Speaker 3: And then I just can't really move I'm doubled over
Speaker 3: and I grabbed a fist full of snow to put
Speaker 3: on my eyes, and I can't see in anyway. And
Speaker 3: then I just feel like a hand reach out for
Speaker 3: me and grabs my hand and they start to just
Speaker 3: guide me way out of the gas. And then there's
Speaker 3: a guy there wearing a bandanna and he says, this
Speaker 3: is my house. This is my house. It's the most
Speaker 3: Minnesotan thing of all time. We walk in the house.
Speaker 3: None of us can even see really, and he says, I'm.
Speaker 2: Sorry it's so messy, and.
Speaker 6: Thank you.
Speaker 1: That's much better.
Speaker 3: I had a bottle of water and we're pouring it
Speaker 3: over my eyes.
Speaker 5: You very much.
Speaker 4: Or the hospitality.
Speaker 3: You know, there's that famous mister Rogers saying that when
Speaker 3: trouble strikes, look for the helpers. And that's what I've
Speaker 3: always used with ho you look for the helpers. But
Speaker 3: you know Renee Good was a helper and Alex Preddie
Speaker 3: was a helper.
Speaker 2: Like they're murdering the.
Speaker 4: Helpers coming up. After being shot in the leg by
Speaker 4: an ice agent, Julio Cesar Sosa Salis became national news.
Speaker 4: Since then, his family has been forced into hiding after the.
Speaker 1: Break, I pay them a visit.
Speaker 4: One week after Renee Good and a week and three
Speaker 4: days before Ali x Preddi, another person in Minneapolis was
Speaker 4: shot by ICE agents. He was at his home when
Speaker 4: it happened. He was shot in the leg, It wasn't fatal,
Speaker 4: and the incident didn't get as much media attention. The
Speaker 4: man's name was Julio Cesar Sosa Celis. He was Venezuelan,
Speaker 4: and he had no criminal record. There are different accounts
Speaker 4: of what happened that night, but in a nutshell, the
Speaker 4: federal government claims Julio had been targeted for arrest, that
Speaker 4: he fled during a car chase, and that when he
Speaker 4: was caught, he was shot by an ICE agent in
Speaker 4: self defense. The FBI says otherwise. Their investigation determined that
Speaker 4: Ice wasn't looking for Julio at all and that he
Speaker 4: was not a part of any chase. Julio's roommate was
Speaker 4: mistaken for someone else while driving, and he got into
Speaker 4: a car chase with Ice. The roommate led the agents
Speaker 4: back to the house he and Julio shared with their
Speaker 4: partners and their babies. Eye witnesses say the shooting wasn't
Speaker 4: self defense, that the men were fleeing into the house
Speaker 4: when shots were fired. At the end of the night,
Speaker 4: Julio and his partner Indriani were arrested. But the story
Speaker 4: I want to tell isn't about the shooting itself. I
Speaker 4: want to tell the story of the family Julio and
Speaker 4: Indiani left behind, what their life was like before that night,
Speaker 4: and what it's been like ever since. So far, Julio
Speaker 4: and Indriani's family in Minnesota haven't spoken with any journalists.
Speaker 4: But it turns out I have a connection to Indiani's mom, Ejumilis.
Speaker 4: It was a very tenuous connection through friends of friends,
Speaker 4: but it was enough for me to be trusted, and
Speaker 4: so one cold night, a week after the shooting, I
Speaker 4: text Jamilis my photo so she could identify me through
Speaker 4: the front doors small window, and I go over to
Speaker 4: talk Hi.
Speaker 7: Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello.
Speaker 4: Since Julio and Indiani have been incarcerated, Eumilis has been
Speaker 4: taking care of their three year old son. Her grandson,
Speaker 4: Emilis has been in the US since twenty twenty three.
Speaker 4: With the shooting, she fears that she and her family
Speaker 4: have become targets, even more so targets of ice, so
Speaker 4: she doesn't leave the house, not the grocery shop, not
Speaker 4: to go to work. She keeps the blinds drawn, the
Speaker 4: lights outside off. She says, she prays that God will
Speaker 4: just make her house invisible.
Speaker 8: Yes, Jamila's.
Speaker 4: Yes, Yes, I'm with my interpreter, Eric, who's not really
Speaker 4: an interpreter but my former officemate who works as an
Speaker 4: immigration lawyer. The house is full of life, four kids
Speaker 4: of her own, ages nine through fourteen, and her three
Speaker 4: year old grandson, Julio, and Indriani's son. Once inside, one
Speaker 4: of the kids locks the door behind us. Since the shooting,
Speaker 4: even though her children have opened asylum cases and social
Speaker 4: security numbers, Emilis has kept them all home from school.
Speaker 4: Her fourteen year old Alejandra attends class over video. I
Speaker 4: ask her for teachers know why she hasn't been in class.
Speaker 6: Yeah, but I like, I didn't tell Oh my teachers,
Speaker 6: so my greats are going down. Oh so I'm scared
Speaker 6: about that too.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
Speaker 6: I really want to go to school again, but my
Speaker 6: mom's like, you need to stay here cause though Ice
Speaker 6: can't take you and things like that, you know, But
Speaker 6: I really when I go to school.
Speaker 8: Again, yea MEI.
Speaker 4: Lisa's ten year old son Javier, walks over.
Speaker 5: I don't ask a question.
Speaker 4: He has a question he wants to ask me.
Speaker 6: Yes, did you know when the ice thing's gonna don't?
Speaker 1: Oh, I wish I knew.
Speaker 4: I'm so sorry. As her partner Danielle makes himself dinner
Speaker 4: and the kids come and go from the living room.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Elise tells me about her life before all of this,
Speaker 4: why she left Venezuela for the United States.
Speaker 1: In the first.
Speaker 7: Places, we were living hidden mineot.
Speaker 8: My fear of returning is really strong.
Speaker 4: When I ask why that is, Jamlis just says political
Speaker 4: persecution and leaves it at that. Her daughter Indriani had
Speaker 4: already migrated to the US and made a home for
Speaker 4: herself and her son in Minnesota. Jemilie really missed them.
Speaker 4: To see them again, she and her family embarked on
Speaker 4: a difficult journey, mostly done on foot. She and her
Speaker 4: partner Danielle told four little kids across South and Central
Speaker 4: America and through Mexico.
Speaker 9: We didn't have phone, we didn't have money, Monea, I
Speaker 9: had some coins kaminamo for domess.
Speaker 8: We walked for two months la cage, sleeping in the.
Speaker 7: Street, comiendo, eating what people would give us Kaminamomucho walked
Speaker 7: a lotes.
Speaker 9: But always happy with a lot of faith in in being.
Speaker 8: Able to once again see my daughter and my grandson.
Speaker 4: On the way from Colombia to Panama, they passed through
Speaker 4: the incredibly dangerous rainforest known as the Darian.
Speaker 8: Gap, where a lot of people have died.
Speaker 4: The Darien Gap is a roughly sixty mile stretch of rainforest.
Speaker 4: It's the only gap in the Pan American Highway. No road,
Speaker 4: not even a dirt trail. The area is filled with
Speaker 4: strong rivers, flash floods, and wild animals. There is no police.
Speaker 4: Many migrants are murdered and raped during passage. But of
Speaker 4: all the places they traveled through, Yemalis says, the parts
Speaker 4: of Mexico controlled by the carte Owls were the scariest.
Speaker 4: She describes how, while trying to avoid the immigration authorities,
Speaker 4: her family escaped into the forest.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I rang trappers on Mar Salon del Monte.
Speaker 8: The three armed men came kind of out of the trees.
Speaker 7: And ede is a momento.
Speaker 8: They said, nothing's gonna happen. Give us your money, lefono,
Speaker 8: give us your phones.
Speaker 2: The left for nothing.
Speaker 8: I said, I don't have money. Or phone.
Speaker 4: Emily's gestures towards her twelve year old daughter, who's sitting
Speaker 4: on the couch Joros.
Speaker 8: She cried because she saw the guns, maybe hero, and
Speaker 8: they said she better be quiet or will kill her.
Speaker 8: Me An my son he was curious about the guns,
Speaker 8: and they said, if he looks at me again, I'm
Speaker 8: gonna kill him.
Speaker 7: No, the noo.
Speaker 8: They took all our clothes off, looking forward to see
Speaker 8: if we had hidden money.
Speaker 4: When they didn't find anything, they let them go. Emilis
Speaker 4: and Danielle had heard about a train that carried migrants
Speaker 4: from Mexico City to the American border. The train was
Speaker 4: referred to as le Bestia the Beast. It's also been
Speaker 4: called the Train of Death. Passengers ride on top of
Speaker 4: freight cars. Loss of limbs, maimings, even death occur as
Speaker 4: people try to board the moving train. The family was
Speaker 4: told by other migrant travelers where to wait for the train.
Speaker 4: They waited and waited.
Speaker 7: Bienel train grandisio.
Speaker 8: Then comes this big train. It everyone starts cheering the
Speaker 8: train in the.
Speaker 7: Train correria correria, corre pers solas and I saw a.
Speaker 8: Lot of people start running and running and running, and Perro.
Speaker 7: Josi momento the tar.
Speaker 8: And I said to God that in that moment, God,
Speaker 8: if it's your will for us to get on this train,
Speaker 8: let it stop.
Speaker 7: Okay, and train the train moving.
Speaker 8: I could get on, and my husband could get on,
Speaker 8: but the kids no have to jump on clearly, and
Speaker 8: I couldn't jump and grab onto the train with holding
Speaker 8: two of my children and him holding.
Speaker 7: The other to.
Speaker 8: And if I felt that the train could kill me.
Speaker 4: When the train came to a full stop, yamils took
Speaker 4: it as.
Speaker 7: A sign there was a ladder, so we won't.
Speaker 8: We climbed up very quick and we passed five days
Speaker 8: on the train on top of the train like that.
Speaker 8: When we went through towns or villages, people would throw
Speaker 8: us food.
Speaker 7: Or cookies or ok for a moment.
Speaker 8: Because we couldn't get down, because if we got down,
Speaker 8: the train could leave and we'd be stuck.
Speaker 7: Is a train no mole Maxico.
Speaker 8: That train moved us through half of Mexico.
Speaker 4: And the kids, how were they?
Speaker 8: Yeah, we we tied them on. We tied the children down.
Speaker 8: One just has to say I'm going and I'm moving.
Speaker 4: Forward through the cold at night and the heat during
Speaker 4: the day. Emilies and her partners stayed awake holding on
Speaker 4: to the children. Falling asleep meant running the risk of
Speaker 4: being shoved from the train or simply falling, which could
Speaker 4: mean instant death. So for five days she hung on
Speaker 4: no bad room, just a pot, no proper food, just
Speaker 4: what they could catch, and no sleep. In this way
Speaker 4: Jamilies spent her birthday, she was turning thirty four years old.
Speaker 4: The train finally stopped in Juarez.
Speaker 8: People had been killed, children had been taken, people had
Speaker 8: had their stuff stolen. See this, and I thank God
Speaker 8: that we were people that were very blessed.
Speaker 4: A man who saw the family get off the train
Speaker 4: offered to buy them food. Other people gave them drinks.
Speaker 4: Another man even gave them money. They all ate and finally,
Speaker 4: walking distance from the US border, they slept. In the morning,
Speaker 4: US Immigration admitted Yamilies and the children into the US.
Speaker 4: They spent the night in a border patrol tent and
Speaker 4: were given paperwork to start the asylum process. Eventually, they
Speaker 4: were placed on a bus to Chicago. Emilis's daughter Into
Speaker 4: then came to greet her. It was Eamilis's first time
Speaker 4: seeing her daughter in a year and a half. Ran
Speaker 4: to each other and hugged and I grabbed my grandson. Together,
Speaker 4: they traveled back to Indiani's new home in Minnesota, where
Speaker 4: the kids enrolled in school, and eventually Eumilis found work
Speaker 4: cleaning houses and offices. Over the years, they settled in
Speaker 4: and made a life for themselves. After the break, Eumilis
Speaker 4: tells me about her second separation from her daughter and grandson.
Speaker 4: The night of julio shooting, Jamilis was at work when
Speaker 4: she got her daughter's frantic video call. Inddiani was telling
Speaker 4: her that Ice was at the.
Speaker 7: Door, Condida gonsus jorando.
Speaker 8: She was hidden with her baby in her arms, crying,
Speaker 8: my momo wangam and she was saying to me, mamma,
Speaker 8: if they come in, they're going to kill us.
Speaker 4: Teargas had been thrown through the window and so Yamilis's
Speaker 4: daughter and grandson got on the ground. They were phoning
Speaker 4: from under the bed.
Speaker 8: I can show you the video. You can hear everything.
Speaker 4: Jamils pulls out her phone. She had recorded the call,
Speaker 4: and she shows me the video.
Speaker 8: You're going to kill us.
Speaker 4: I asked where Julio and his roommate were while she
Speaker 4: was on the phone with her daughter. Turns out they
Speaker 4: were also on the phone.
Speaker 8: They were there, and they were talking to their mothers
Speaker 8: and because in that moment they thought that they were
Speaker 8: going to kill them mouth and they wanted to say
Speaker 8: goodbye to each of their mother's.
Speaker 4: Emily says that her daughter rightfully didn't open the door,
Speaker 4: but I broke the door down. While she's telling this story,
Speaker 4: the toddler runs in. He's bright eyed and wearing a
Speaker 4: little football jersey.
Speaker 1: Is this your grandson?
Speaker 7: Hi?
Speaker 2: Hello?
Speaker 8: Police took his mind looking, but I don't. He's talking
Speaker 8: about how the bomb came through the window and they
Speaker 8: shut his dad, Julio.
Speaker 7: Candles.
Speaker 8: Grand's talking about the smell. It's smelled ugly smell. Did
Speaker 8: it hurt your eyes?
Speaker 1: I did, like the bustle, he.
Speaker 4: Merely says. Her grandson keeps talking about that night. He
Speaker 4: still has nightmares.
Speaker 1: He sleeps with.
Speaker 8: Me, and I hear when he wakes up at night.
Speaker 1: Mom, he's smaller.
Speaker 4: To flee political persecution from one country, the family underwent
Speaker 4: a death defying journey to another country, only to be
Speaker 4: persecuted by that new country's government. Could you ever have
Speaker 4: imagined that it would get this bad, that it would
Speaker 4: get like this?
Speaker 9: No, it's.
Speaker 8: A beautiful country, and it's four seasons. Hello cold, the heat,
Speaker 8: I like the heat bar.
Speaker 4: That first winter, Emilius wore gloves and hats indoors. Wherever
Speaker 4: she went. She carried around a space heater that had
Speaker 4: been gifted to her. But seeing how much the kids
Speaker 4: enjoyed the snow the winter has grown on her.
Speaker 8: You may I feel good here. We came to work.
Speaker 8: We came for the good of our children, truly, you guys,
Speaker 8: And next summer are invited to eat at my house.
Speaker 8: If I'm here, We're gonna eat really well.
Speaker 4: On Tuesday, Julio appeared in court to counter the federal
Speaker 4: government's narrative. Lawyers presented photographs showing a bullet hole through
Speaker 4: the front door of Julio's house and a bullet hole
Speaker 4: in one of the bedrooms between a mattress and a crib.
Speaker 4: The judge ordered Julio's release who When Julio left the courthouse,
Speaker 4: ice agents were waiting for him outside. He's now back
Speaker 4: in attention. Indviani was released last week. On the morning
Speaker 4: she returned, her son was still sleeping when.
Speaker 1: She woke him.
Speaker 4: He didn't recognize her at first, but then he hugged
Speaker 4: her now he doesn't want to leave her side. He's
Speaker 4: afraid Ice will take her again. Jamilis still hasn't left
Speaker 4: the house and her kids have yet to return to school.
