Yeonsoo Go, a 20-year-old high school graduate, was released from ICE custody after five days of detention. Go was detained following an immigration hearing, with the Department of Homeland Security claiming she overstayed her visa. However, her lawyer contested this, stating her visa remains valid. Go arrived in New York from South Korea in 2021 and was preparing to return to Purdue University. Supporters rallied for her release, emphasizing her positive contributions and character.
"I always had faith that [I'd] be out soon. I wish for everyone to be safe, everyone that supports me to be safe, and have hopes to be told and heard."
"We are so grateful that after five long days Soo gets to sleep at home in bed and gets to hug her mother. We were all so worried about her."
