Dozens of migrants who are being dropped off at their first destination in the U.S. after being released from Border Patrol custody are being welcomed by a South Bay nonprofit.
It's a change from earlier in the week when migrants were dropped off at a transit center down the road.David, who was waiting for his wife to arrive, told ABC 10News,"I don't know why … we are a family, but immigration separated us.”
He said it was scary being apart, adding,"Yesterday evening, I cried in the immigration room. I cried for almost 10 minutes. I was worried about my family and wife, but today I saw my wife and I am very, very happy.”He tearfully detailed the moment he reunited with his wife:"I was almost crying. I'm almost crying right now. I'm sorry. It's very difficult for us to come here.
David said he and his wife left China in hopes of political asylum. He's hopeful they won't have to live in fear in the U.S.His court date isn't until April 2024, and he said he hopes to tell the judge the same story during his hearing.
