We stayed Osny's deportation! Yay! BUT it is only temporary while we continue fighting in court AND he is still DETAINED in Adelanto ICE Detention Center. We don't know how long he will be there. But as long as he Is there, and not able to support his family, HIS FAMILY NEEDS HELP!

As we all know, Osny was their primary provider. Let's keep his family housed, with the lights on and food on the table, until Osny gets home. 

He hates asking, but he needs to. And he is beyond grateful for anything you can do to help.

Background: 
My name is Chance Kidd, and I've started this page for my amazing fiancé, Osny Sorto who is currently being detained illegally despite having DACA protection.

Osny is a law abiding 24-year-old young LGBTQ community member from Honduras who came to the United States at the age of nine. He is a DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) recipient in good standing, with a valid work permit and is currently a CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant). He was detained by ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) agents on October 3rd, 2018 at his residence in Hacienda Heights, CA, where he lives with his mother and four other children, for whom he is the head of household.  Osny is currently being held at: Adelanto ICE Processing Center, 10400 Rancho Road, Adelanto, CA 92301 – (760) [phone redacted].

ICE agents arrived at his residence banged on the door and claiming they were police officers doing an alleged “investigation” of fraudulent activities involving his address. They abruptly woke his mother and 4 children, terrorized and questioned them about a fake dangerous individual who was supposedly using their address for fraudulent purposes and that was going to kill them all. Osny was not at home at the time and ICE agents asked his mother to call him. They spoke with him on the phone and asked him if he would cooperate with the “investigation” they were doing, to which he agreed. ICE agents arranged a meeting time with Osny for the next day; When they arrived, they asked him to come outside to see if he could identify the individual they were “investigating” at which point they detained him and took him away.

 While at the above-mentioned detention center, Osny has experienced extremely harsh, and inhumane conditions, such as: total disregard for detainees’ well-being, lack of medical attention, and unsanitary living conditions, just to name a few. He has also met several other detainees and heard their horror stories. For instance, one the detainees who was recently suffering from a chronic tooth ache, was denied dental care had no other recourse than to pull his own tooth out. The horrors continue, and we need your help to #FreeOsny!
