"Pacheco had been making waves in the media as an activist and supporter of educational rights for immigrant students across the country, and word had apparently gotten back to ICE about her antics. But when federal agents went into her home, she wasn’t there. Her family was taken in for questioning instead. “They detained my parents and my two sisters, but I stayed behind to make phone calls to friends in the media, lawyers, and anyone I could,” Pacheco told the Current recently.

She found out later that ICE had mistaken her sister for herself. When the agents realized their mistake, ICE finally brought her in for questioning. A deal was struck: They’d all be released, Pacheco would be allowed to keep her visa, but in exchange she agreed to cut out the organizing. It was a promise made to be broken. “I knew it would be virtually impossible,” Pacheco confessed. "

This stuff scares me. Waking up to a pounding on the door knowing you are about to be taken away from everything you have ever know...

I don't think anyone here knows who you are so if you could tell us your experience, I'm sure it'd remain anonymous.

I just wanted to know since my adjustment of status was denied a few years back, and was wondering if I should be worried. Especially since I was under the impression that ICE focuses primarily on criminals and raids at work sites. If you're uncomfortable sharing, that's fine.
