A U.S. Marine has revealed that his parents were detained by ICE agents during a recent visit to Camp Pendleton in California, after which they were fitted with ankle monitors and ordered to report back to the agency, whereupon they were held again, and his father was deported.
Marine Steve Rios told NBC News’s San Diego affiliate that his parents, Esteban Rios and Luisa Rodriguez, had arrived at Pendleton in Oceanside on Sunday, September 28, to take his pregnant younger sister, Ashley, and her husband, also a Marine, out to breakfast, as they had done frequently for several months.
