Don Lupe, a warehouse worker from Puebla, Mexico who had lived in the U.S. for 27 years, was the first worker arrested when ICE agents raided Alba Wines and Spirits in Edison, New Jersey on July 8. Agents handcuffed him with zip ties and transported him to Delaney Hall detention facility. His daughter, a pre-school teacher, learned of the raid mid-class when her mother called crying. The family of six children surrounded their mother, who suffers from asthma, depression, and high blood pressure, as they frantically called immigration lawyers for hours. Don Lupe had hidden his fears about the raids from his wife to protect her health, but prayed each morning before leaving for work that God would let him come home. He was eventually released after legal advocacy and reunited with his family.
