Karoline Leavitt’s (Baghdad Blondie) nephew lives with his father, Karoline’s brother and his family. But, the young man has retained a relationship with his biological mother who just happens to hail from Brazil.
Earlier this month, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents arrested Bruna Caroline Ferreira near Boston. She is currently being held at the South Louisiana ICE Processing Center, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
According to DHS, Ferreira, who is originally from Brazil, entered the U.S. on a B2 tourist visa that required her to depart by June 6, 1999. She is currently in removal proceedings. DHS also said Ferreira had a previous arrest for battery.
However, Todd Pomerleau, Ferreira’s attorney, insists she came to the U.S. legally under DACA and is in the process of getting her green card.
“Bruna has no criminal record whatsoever. I don’t know where that is coming from. Show us the proof. There’s no charges out there. She’s not a criminal, illegal alien, we’re hearing that said about anyone who’s not a U.S. citizen,” Pomerleau said.
Pomerleau agrees with Michael Leavitt that his and Ferreira’s son shouldn’t be caught in.
“His mother is locked up in Louisiana, where she should have never been in the first place,” Pomerleau said.
When asked about the arrest, Baghdad Blondie said she has no comment could not think of a lie quick enough.
