ICE Detains Army Sergeant's Wife in Texas, Raising Parole in Place Questions

An active-duty Army sergeant says his wife, Deisy Rivera Ortega, was detained by ICE in El Paso during a Parole in Place interview, despite protections under the Convention Against Torture; DHS contends she entered the U.S. illegally and faces deportation to a third country, with possible removal to Mexico if allowed. The case, which has drawn support from veteran groups and prompted a habeas petition, highlights rising ICE detentions of spouses and parents of service members and the broader debate over military-family protections.
