Healey ‘demands answers,’ community members rally after ICE detains Milford high school student
The high school junior was arrested Saturday morning on his way to volleyball practice. Governor Maura Healey said she is "demanding immediate answers."

"A Milford #HighSchool student was detained by federal immigration officials on his way to volleyball practice Saturday, prompting a protest of hundreds of people.
" 'It was shocking. It’s frankly disgusting,' said coach Andrew Mainini.
"The high school junior was arrested when U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents pulled over a car full of students, according to multiple reports. The boys were on their way to an early Saturday morning volleyball practice; Mainini told Boston.com he initially thought they overslept.
"But, one of the student athletes texted Mainini, letting him know that the driver of their carpool had been detained by federal agents. The coach learned more details from the students Sunday, who said that upwards of ten masked people, who appeared to be ICE agents, began questioning the three high schoolers and scanning their faces with cell phones on their way to practice.
" 'These are high school students. They’re #honors and #APLevel students. They are members of athletic teams. They are members of the student council. They are members of the school musical ensembles,' Mainini said.
"Sunday morning, Milford families celebrated during the high school’s graduation ceremony. Afterwards, community members gathered to support the detained student at Milford Town Hall. The town, which is about 40 miles southwest of Boston, is nearly 30 percent foreign-born, according to census data.
"During Sunday’s demonstration, family members identified the detained student as 18-year-old #MarceloGomes, according to reports. He is originally from Brazil, and his full name is #MarceloGomesDaSilva, according to the ICE inmate tracker. The tracker did not say where he is currently being held as of Sunday evening."

In a disturbingly #Orwellian #statement, the State Department of Corrections #spokesperson #falsely #claimed:
“Transgender women often state they prefer to be housed with men. Many have created community in the men’s prisons and do not wish to leave,” said Chris Wright, spokesperson for the Washington Department of Corrections.
