customs enforcement: What is your relation to Joselin I am a friend, replied retired chemist Marisa Lohse, who has accompanied dozens of immigrants to such hearings, according to Metro News. Lohse is among hundreds of volunteers, including preachers, law students and retirees, who've stepped up to accompany people in the U.S. illegally to court hearings and meetings with immigration officials, guiding them through an often intimidating process. Thank you, the judge said. Some of them say the accompaniment is more important than ever since Republican President Donald Trump expanded the definition of deportable offences to include all immigrants living in the country illegally, giving rise to immigrants being apprehended during routine check-ins with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The pain, the fear, is bigger, said Guillermo Torres, from Clergy & Laity United for Economic Justice in Los Angeles. We want to increase the accompaniment because the crisis is more severe.
