Detained Georgia veteran deserves to stay in US after serving country, fiancee says
AI Summary
Godfrey Wade, a Jamaican-born US Army veteran, is currently in ICE detention in Georgia and faces potential deportation under the Trump administration. Wade was arrested for driving without a license in September and subsequently taken into ICE custody. His fiancee, April Watkins, advocates for his release and hopes his case will inspire legislative action to protect veterans from deportation. Non-citizens are eligible to serve in the US military, and Wade earned commendations for his service. The Trump administration rescinded an ICE directive that previously offered protections to non-citizen veterans. Wade is being held at the Stewart Detention Center, a facility with a history of alleged rights abuses and deaths.
