Julio Ramirez is a beloved and hardworking business owner, student, and dear friend who was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on October 15, 2018. He is currently in detention at the Suffolk County ICE Detention Center (South Bay). Julio is originally from Guatemala but Massachusetts is his home. He has been living and contributing to Massachusetts for 14 years and is a law abiding member of our community.
On December 12, Julio was released on bond from Suffolk. Read more about next steps and how to help.
Julio was able to make it into court today as the result of an enormous amount of effort by his attorney, the ACLU, and concerned citizens who launched a petition that received 2000 signatures and made phone calls to petition targets, community organizations that wrote many letters of support, and the amazing showing of support in the courtroom today (it was standing room only!).
