«Breaking News» ACLU: Government mistakenly wanted to deport US veteran

Jilmar Ramos-Gomez, 27, (pictured) was held for three days for possible deportation before federal authorities learned that he was a U.S. citizen born in Michigan, lawyers said Wednesday

A Marine veteran with post-traumatic stress disorder was held for three days for possible deportation before federal authorities learned that he was a U.S. citizen born in Michigan, lawyers said Wednesday.

Jilmar Ramos-Gomez, 27, lives in the Grand Rapids area. He was released on Dec. 17 from a detention center in Calhoun County after personal records were provided to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, according to the American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan.

'Why did they think he was a noncitizen? Did they get him confused with someone else? Who knows,' ACLU attorney Miriam Aukerman said. 

'This is an individual who's incredibly vulnerable with a mental illness.'

ICE spokesman Khaalid Walls in Detroit said he couldn't respond to media inquiries because of the partial government shutdown.

Ramos-Gomez was in the Kent County jail after being accused of trespassing and damaging a fire alarm at a Grand Rapids hospital on Nov. 21.

The ACLU said he pleaded guilty and was supposed to be released on Dec. 14 while awaiting a sentence.

But ICE contacted the jail and requested that Ramos-Gomez be held for pickup. 

Kent County Undersheriff Chuck DeWitt said ICE, like other law enforcement agencies, has access to fingerprint records.

'Once he was released from our custody, he was under the domain of ICE. Where they take him is their process,' DeWitt said. 'Our procedures were followed.'

ACLU attorney Miriam Aukerman called Ramos-Gomez' treatment 'appalling'

DeWitt said he didn't know whether Ramos-Gomez protested when immigration officers picked him up.

Ramos-Gomez was driven 70 miles to a detention center in Battle Creek. 

He was released after three days, after lawyer Richard Kessler contacted ICE on behalf of the man's family.

Aukerman said Ramos-Gomez' treatment was 'appalling.'

Ramos-Gomez is receiving mental-health care and wasn't available for an interview Wednesday. 

He was a lance corporal in the Marines and received awards for service in Afghanistan. 

The ACLU said his PTSD had a role in the disturbance at the hospital.

Sheriff Michelle LaJoye-Young defended her department, saying officers don't have authority to verify why ICE wants to detain someone. 

Nonetheless, she called it a 'very unfortunate situation' for Ramos-Gomez.

'We believe this case underscores the need for immigration policy reform,' the sheriff said.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
