CNN reported the arrest of Leavitt's relative as an illegal migrant

The mother of the nephew of White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt, Bruna Ferreira, was detained by the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement as an illegal migrant. This was reported on November 27 by CNN, citing sources.

"Bruna Caroline Ferreira, a native of Brazil and the mother of Leavitt's nephew, was arrested near Boston. <...> A representative of the Department of Homeland Security said that Ferreira was in the United States illegally after exceeding the period of stay of a tourist visa requiring her to leave the country in June 1999," the publication says.

It is noted that the woman is also accused of having been arrested for beating, which the woman's lawyer is trying to refute.

According to Ferreira's lawyer, his client previously had temporary protection from deportation because she was brought to the United States as a child.

According to the TV channel, despite the demand to be deported, the woman is in the process of obtaining US citizenship.

On November 8, NBC reported that Trump's office plans to purchase large warehouses to temporarily house illegal migrants before their deportation. The American authorities are considering warehouses located in the south of the country, near the airports from which most deportations are carried out.

The Washington Post (WP) learned on September 19 that the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is planning to hire more than 10,000 more employees to combat illegal migration. The article noted that for this purpose, this department needs to reserve about 300 office premises across the country in order to distribute new employees to them.
