A 31-Year-Old Houston Father of Two Is on Immigration Hold

Immigration agents deported a 31-year-old Houston father of two American children who have been here since he was 15 and had a temporary reprieve from deportation and no other criminal record.

The 22-year old went to the Houston immigration office for his annual check-in. He had a provisional stay of deportation and a work permit since 2012, when he was released from immigration custody after a media and congressional campaign drew attention to his case.

His arrest is part of a wave of detentions across the country after the Trump administration released new guidelines last month making practically every immigrant here illegally, even those like Escobar who have provisional protection from deportation, eligible for removal.

As a defense to his case, they didn’t give the man a chance to do anything. His lawyer was notified that he had been deported back to El Salvador, a country he hasn’t seen in 16 years.

Unlike the violent criminals Trump has said he would focus on, the accused man landed in deportation proceedings because of a simple paperwork gaffe.

His mother sent for him when he was 15 and like her, he qualified for temporary protected status for people fleeing widespread disasters in certain countries.

She assumed his permit would automatically renew when she reapplied for hers. But it didn’t.

Because they had moved, they didn’t receive the paperwork informing him that he had missed the deadline.

When he finally figured out what had happened, he tried to reapply for the permit but it was too late. The government had already initiated deportation proceedings. His wife said their lawyer told him not to show up at the court hearing or he would be deported. In his absence, the judge ordered him removed in 2006.

But with no one trying hard to find him, his family lived a normal life, moving to New Orleans and then back to Houston. Their son Walter was born.

On June 6, 2011, immigration agents arrested him as he pulled out of his driveway to go to work. His wife consulted with lawyers, created a petition on Change.org, and recruited the help of a US representative.

Her efforts paid off. After seven months in detention, immigration agents released the man in January 2012 on an order of supervision, a provisional stay of deportation in a process known broadly as prosecutorial discretion. He was required to check in with immigration agents once a year and given a temporary work permit.

It was part of a wave of reprieves announced that year by the administration of former, who said he wanted to focus the government’s limited resources on deporting violent criminals, rather than people with clean records who have been here for years and have American children.

But now such priorities have been rescinded. It’s swept fear across the country that’s been heightened by widespread raids and incidents like the arrest of a 22-year-old in Mississippi.

Good Samaritan Who Stopped A Starbucks Robbery Is Sued By Robbery Suspect

The robbery suspect who allegedly attempted to rob a Starbucks in July might is suing the Good Samaritan who stopped him from robbing the coffee store. The robbery suspect is suing the Good Samaritan for the wounds he sustained from the alleged robbery.

Adam Gibson, 30, is accused of second-degree robbery and assault charges with a deadly weapon discovered from a robbery at a Starbucks store in Fresno. Gibson was arrested after he allegedly tried to rob a barista wearing a Transformers mask with a fake gun. But, during the process, he was stabbed with his own knife when subdued by the customer Gavin Butler, 58.

Butler intervened in the attempted robbery by striking Gibson with a chair from behind. Gibson resisted and tried to fight back by pulling out his knife. The two wrestled over the weapon in which Butler stabbed Gibson in the neck by taking the knife way. Butler stabbed Flores apparently 17 times during the fight. Gibson’s mother, Pamela Hamilton, described Butler’s action “excessive” and told KSEE that Gibson planned to file a lawsuit against Butler.  Gibson’s father, Mark Gibson, said Fresno Bee that he understands Adam Gibson robbed the store, but also pointed out that Gavin Butler stabbed his son 17 times.

The video of the robbery went viral and showed the encounter between Gibson and Butler and the brawl that resulted in injured for both men. Adam Gibson is currently in Fresno County Jail, didn’t directly confirm or deny the lawsuit.

Meanwhile, Fresno Police Chief Jerry Warren, who initially praised Butler’s actions in stopping the robbery, allegedly dismissed the reports of Butler being sued “ludicrous.”  Legal analysts also expressed their doubts that the lawsuit would be difficult to prove because of “unreasonable malice.”

If you have been arrested or facing criminal charges, you need someone to be on your side. An effective defense can be the deciding factor between a prison sentence and a reduced or dismissed charge. If you’ve been arrested or facing a criminal law defense case (such as immigration, criminal offense, deportation, DWI or DUI, theft, assault, drug-related assaults, etc.), it’s also crucial that you know your rights.

Former Cypress-Fairbanks Teacher Sentenced To 8 Years In Prison For Having Sex With Student

Former Cypress-Fairbanks Teacher Sentenced To 8 Years In Prison For Having Sex With Student

A former math teacher in Cypress-Fairbanks was sentenced to eight years in prison on Friday after he admitted having sexual assault of a child with a 16-year-old student in his class.

The Incident

The defendant, aged 31, pleaded guilty when his trial started on Tuesday. He was charged with a felony on two accounts of sexual assault of a child who is under 17. The defendant admitted that the student and he had sex at least two times in his car. Earlier in the week, the victim testified that the teacher pressured her into having sex with him after traveling with her to Bear Creek Park during her junior year in 2015.

Testification by Defendant

The defendant pleaded guilty and testified in his own defense. He told the jurors that the teen was “in control” of their relationship and she seduced him. His defense attorneys were James Kan and Don Nguyen. They demanded a more lenient verdict, pointed out the teen remained close to the teacher even after the encounters ended. She also enrolled in another semester to have classes in him and sat next to him during lunchtime tutorials. The victim also continued messaging him even after the encounters have ended.


Meanwhile, prosecutor Ashley Guice noted that the defendant picked the girl up from her home, drove to Bear Creek Park in northwest Houston and had sex at least twice there. She also pointed that the defendant had a habit of being close to the female students. Also, he sent them messages on social media. He used these techniques to manipulate their emotions to commit sexual assault of a child.

Cypress-Fairbanks ISD officials began investigating the Cypress Ridge High School math teacher in November 2016 after receiving an anonymous tip. The former teacher was later arrested after he admitted to the sex and said it was consensual.
