A Minnesota man has spent 90 days in ICE detention, uncertain if or when he'll be deported

The surge of federal immigration agents to Minnesota peaked more than three months ago. Some of those taken into ICE custody during that time are still detained outside the state. Minnesota Now shared an update in a case we covered earlier this year.The Trump Administration is seeking to deport At Chandee, who goes by Ricky, due to a criminal conviction from the 1990s. At the time, the government of Laos, where he was born, refused to accept him. Chandee was allowed to stay in the U.S. and check in periodically with immigration authorities, a circumstance shared by many other Hmong and Lao refugees who were convicted of crimes in the U.S.The Trump Administration argues that deporting people with past convictions makes communities safer. But Chandee's family says he turned his life around since that decades-old conviction, and that his community is better off with him in it.
