ICE Detention Drives Durango Dad And 2 Kids To Voluntary Return To Colombia

A Durango father and his two children, detained by ICE after agents stopped the family while seeking another person, have signed papers for voluntary return to Colombia despite an active asylum case, advocates say. The detentions sparked protests in Durango and a Colorado Bureau of Investigation probe into force used during demonstrations. The case aligns with broader reports of intensified ICE enforcement and detention pressures in Colorado, including at Aurora, where some detainees have sought removal due to prolonged confinement.
