After 7 months in ICE detention, a nursing student from NC talks about wanting to return home.
Allison Bustillo was just 8 years old when she arrived in the United States with her mom and brother. As part of her American dream, she learned English, graduated high school, became a certified nursing assistant, and was planning to start a Bachelor’s degree in nursing.
In February, that dream became a nightmare when Immigration and Customs Enforcement detained her for seven months without charges, leading to her to choose to self-deport back to Honduras, the country her family fled.
Recently, Cardinal & Pine’s Dylan Rhoney talked to Bustillo from Honduras. She talked about wanting to return to the US, despite her experience with ICE.
