Texas mom of four freed from ICE after six weeks, warning that "no one is safe"

A Texas translator and mother of four, Meenu Batra, spent more than six weeks in ICE custody after arrest on March 17 at a Texas airport en route to Milwaukee; she says the detention was fearful and dehumanizing and fears it could happen again. A federal judge ordered her release for no discernible reason and her habeas petition remains pending. Her son's Army service could offer a path to citizenship for her, while DHS described her as an illegal alien in a statement she called disrespectful.
