Liam’s teacher Ella Sullivan was in visible tears during the announcement that Liam had been taken away. “He’s a bright young student, & he’s so kind & loving, & his classmates miss him, & all I want is for him to be safe & back here,” Sullivan said.

According to Columbia Heights district officials, 3 other students, all under the age of 18 have been detained by federal agents in recent weeks.

“I’m exploring whether we file a #HabeasCorpus petition to get him out, we’d have to actually file that down in #Texas now,” Prokosch added.

Asked if the 5-yr-old’s detainment was #illegal, Prokosch said, “Probably not, & that’s what’s going to make my job really difficult. Just because something is legal doesn’t mean it’s #moral. You know, yes, they may have the legal authority to detain a 5-year-old, but why?”

Marc Prokosch, a lawyer representing Ramos’ family, said he is still not sure of the exact current whereabouts of Liam & his dad. He believes, based on the experience of other clients he has worked with, that they are currently in #Texas in a family holding cell.

“Every step of their #immigration process has been doing what they’ve been asked to do, & so this is just…cruelty,” Prokosch said….

Agents took both the father & #child away in a vehicle & sent them to #Texas.
Stenvik said Liam’s family has an “active #asylum case” with NO deportation orders.
“I have viewed the legal paperwork with my own eyes,” Stenvik said, adding leaders from Liam’s school visited his home Tues after he was detained to provide support to his family, including a middle school student who returned home to find his father & brother had been taken.

“Another adult living in the home was outside & begged the agents to let him take care of the small #child, & was refused,” Stenvik said.

“Instead,” she said, “the agent took the child out of the still-running car, led him to the door & directed him to knock on the door asking to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home, essentially using a 5-year-old as bait.”

“Why detain a 5-year-old? You can’t tell me that this #child is going to be classified as a violent criminal,” Zena Stenvik, the Columbia Heights superintendent, told reporters Wednesday.

According to Stenvik, masked agents apprehended 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos in his driveway on Tuesday as he returned home from school with his father.
