The DHS clarifies that a viral video misrepresented the arrest of Juliana Ojeda-Montoya, an illegal alien from Ecuador who previously stabbed a coworker with scissors; the DHS states there was no medical emergency during her arrest, and she resisted arrest while her husband, also illegal, refused medical help and left with their child after realizing he would be detained for immigration violations.
