Syracuse immigrants talk about fearful days since being put in ankle monitors
SYRACUSE, N.Y. (WSYR-TV) — 'Like an allergic reaction' is how Maria Morocho describes the impact on her body from the tracking bracelet she was given by federal immigration officers. 'Itchy,' she adds in her interview with NewsChannel 9. 'It beeps all the time, wakes me up at night.' State Senate approves measures to make utilities more affordable Trump addresses House Republicans at Florida retreat: 5 takeaways Syracuse immigrants talk about fearful days since being put in ankle monitors DOJ fires prosecutors who worked on Trump criminal cases Chiefs look to make history with rare three-peat Using her immigration attorney as a translator, Morocho shares how the life she and her husband were building in America is suddenly at risk. It's been more than a year since Morocho and her husband, Luis Lozano, got to Syracuse with two of their children. Leaving their home country of Ecuador, the family crossed the border into the United States at the end of 2023. The family fled because they were forcing extortion. Luis Lozano said: 'They tell us: 'Unless we pay it, we were going to get killed, my wife was going to get killed, or my children were going to get killed.'' So, they describe the tough decision to take 3,000 mile journey to the United States. Morocho called it a 'terrible experience.' Even though they didn't have permission to cross the border, the couple, and their attorney, don't feel they're 'undocumented.' Once they were caught by immigration officers, the couple were processed as asylum seekers with the agreement they check in with officers in Syracuse monthly. 'I want the community to help us to stay here,' said Luis. 'Help us to have our children happy, and be able to learn English, and educate themselves here. They want to better here. They want to have a better life here.' The 11-year-old and 17-year-old children, who attend the Syracuse City School District, are too afraid to attend school since the increased enforcement.
