Trump Voter Criticizes ICE After Wife's Detention Over Visa Overstay
Camila Muñoz, detained during her honeymoon, remains in custody as her husband campaigns for her release and calls for immigration system reforms.
- Camila Muñoz, a Peruvian woman married to U.S. citizen Bradley Bartell, was detained by ICE in February 2025 for overstaying her visa during the pandemic.
- Muñoz is currently held at Richwood Correctional Center in Louisiana, awaiting a court date, while Bartell raises funds for her legal fees and bond.
- Bartell, a Trump voter, has expressed frustration with ICE's inefficiency but does not regret his vote, instead advocating for reforms to the immigration system.
- The Trump administration's immigration policies have expanded deportation efforts to include non-criminal undocumented immigrants, drawing criticism for their impact on families with strong U.S. ties.
- Undocumented immigrants contribute significantly to the U.S. economy, paying $75.6 billion in taxes in 2022, and are statistically less likely to commit crimes than U.S.-born citizens.
