""It was a trap," said his husband, David Torres."
""They're going to kill me" if he returned, Hernandez told the interviewer."
""cleaning" the neighborhood of "f*gg*ts like you" and that he was next."
Jorge Amado Hernandez, a Honduran national, arrived in the U.S. in 2016 after receiving death threats from a local MS-13 gang for spending time with another man. Authorities in 2016 granted a positive credible-fear determination and released him to his aunt in Texas. Hernandez met and later married David Torres and pursued legal residency without relying on their marriage to avoid returning to Honduras. At a November final residency hearing, ICE arrested Hernandez and he has spent the past month in an ICE detention facility, where his husband reports inhumane conditions. Torres states Hernandez has no criminal history.
