A woman was taken into custody and transferred to ICE detention after what her husband describes as a misunderstanding. He says significant force was used during her arrest and her wrists were injured in the struggle. The couple's children, including one who is autistic, have been separated from their mother, and the husband is seeking legal help while caring for the children alone.
