This is from a South Florida paper:

"Camila Alzate can’t understand why her father is no longer with her.

All the 4-year-old remembers is that Cape Coral police arrived one morning and took him away.

“First I told her that Dad was arrested for owing traffic tickets, and nothing more,” said Camila’s mother, Maritza Villegas.

Camila’s father, Edinson Alzate, 38, was one of 163 immigrants arrested Sept. 20 and 21 by Immigration and Citizenship Enforcement officers during sweeps in Southwest Florida.

ICE officials said agents targeted undocumented immigrants with criminal pasts or deportation orders against them. They won’t discuss individual cases.

Neither Alzate nor his wife have criminal records, and since 2002, they have received work permits and valid Social Security numbers. The Colombian family was trying to obtain permanent residency based on a political-asylum request."

Bella was arrested on Sept. 19. Remember I told you "company Bella" had no illegals (per what Bella told us)? This man is not part of her group, so it appears that this program is not targeting illegals... now, people we need a section or something to keep track of each of these people when we get a name, and such... can anyone do a database?

For additional info on this, Google "operation return to sender" or read my account thus far of my cousin Bella's story:
