riseabovejusticemovement Earlier this month, ICE agents raided a food manufacturing plant here in the Kansas City area, and one of the people detained is Adrian Mendoza. He left Ecuador due to persecution in 2023. His wife was not notified of ICE detaining Adrian and she found out through social media that ICE detained 8 people, and one of them is her husband. In an article and interview with @kcur893 , his wife, Aylin Castro stated, “The last message I received from him came after he said goodbye,” Castro said through an interpreter. “He told me he loved me and thanked me for the breakfast I had packed in his lunchbox.” Adrián Mendoza left his birth country Ecuador in 2023, wanting a better future for himself and his loved ones, according to his wife.” View all comments
