The Story of Wildin: A Undocumented Minor from Honduras and Immigrant Detention

Th

The podcast Criminal has an episode that may be of interest to ImmigrationProf readers.  In 2014, 16-year-old Wildin Acosta left Olancho, Honduras and traveled toward the U.S. border. When he arrived, he turned himself in to border patrol agents. He was one of 68,541 unaccompanied minors who crossed the border into the United States that year. 

After spending months in detention, Wildin was released and is seeking asylum.  His next court date is in August.

This is an interesting tale.
