Indiana dad whose wife voted for Trump now faces deportation to Mexico
An Indiana father of four, whose wife had voted for President Trump, is now facing deportation to Mexico after immigration officials detained him in February, his family said.
Roberto Beristain, 43, who lived with his wife Helen and their four American-born children in Mishawaka, was going for his yearly U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement check-in when officials arrested him.
His wife, Helen, had voted for Trump in November because she agreed with his immigration policy to drive undocumented immigrants with criminal backgrounds out of the country, daughter Jasmine Beristain said, but didn’t think it was going to affect her husband.
Jasmine, 14, told the Daily News her father was arrested because of a previous deportation order that stemmed from 2000.
She said the family was on vacation when her father took the wrong turn to Niagara Falls and ended up past the Canadian border. He tried to come back into the U.S., but officials denied him entry and placed a deportation order on him, Jasmine said.
Roberto ignored the order and remained in the country.
“He was very nervous, but he had to stay because my mother was pregnant with my sister,” his daughter said.
ICE did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
