Ancelmo Carrillo-Carrillo's case illustrates the ways in which the immigration and criminal justice systems intersect. Immigrants' lives can be upended in ways that those of U.S. citizens charged with the same crimes are not.

On Tuesday, she is supposed to turn in the key to the house in Vista her family has rented for the past several years. She doesn’t yet know where she or her four children will live.

Carrillo-Carrillo’s case illustrates the ways in which the immigration and criminal justice systems intersect — what many attorneys refer to as the crimmigration system because of the ways that immigrants’ lives are upended in ways that those of U.S. citizens charged with the same crimes are not. Carrillo-Carrillo said he accepted a plea deal in the domestic violence case without realizing how that might affect his ability to remain in the United States.

Any deportation of a parent is likely to cause hardship for their children, but this legal standard means that applicants have to prove the hardship it would cause goes far beyond that. An example might be where one of the children has a major health condition that requires one of the parents to be a full-time caregiver.

Pérez still cries when she remembers the moment. She said agents took her baby, who was a couple of months old at the time, away from her and told her she was going to jail. A police officer found her there, and she told him what happened. He helped her communicate with family members to come get her and waited to be sure they found her.

María Pérez pauses from packing Saturday to dress up her daughter, Jennifer, 6, in clothes from Guatemala, the country she is from.“We didn’t hurt anyone. We didn’t kill anyone. We didn’t hit anyone,” she said. “My God, we’re not doing anything.”
