‘Mommy, why don’t you pick us up?’: Mother of Liam Conejo Ramos shares her story from hiding (www.mprnews.org)

Ramos, 33, is three months pregnant and in hiding now. She said she fears ICE will detain her despite her legal status to be in the United States. Ramos and her 13-year-old son fled their home after ICE agents took away Liam and his father on Jan. 20.

...

Ramos said she witnessed from inside the house. She saw ICE agents approach the front of the house as her husband parked their car. Liam was inside the car, crying as they took his father away, she added. Ramos said she too began to cry.

Her husband and observers on the scene yelled at her not to leave the house.

Ramos said the ICE agents noticed her at the window and then took a crying Liam to the front door. She said they used him as bait. They knocked on the door while Liam said, “Mommy, open the door.”

She said she felt it was an attempt to provoke her so that she’d rush out of the house, giving agents a chance to detain her as well.

She recalls that when she didn’t open the door, ICE took Liam to a patrol vehicle.

Since their detainment, she said she had to go to a hospital emergency room because of bleeding.

I wonder what healthcare she would've gotten in detention if they kidnapped her and she started bleeding there. I wonder how many miscarriages they've caused, and if ICE agents have a big laugh about it every time it happens.
