Peruvian Woman Detained by ICE Highlights Trump’s Strict Immigration Policies

Camila Muñoz, detained after her honeymoon, remains in ICE custody as her husband calls for immigration reforms while maintaining support for Trump.

Camila Muñoz, a Peruvian citizen married to U.S. citizen Bradley Bartell, was detained by ICE in February after overstaying her J-1 visa during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Muñoz is being held in an ICE detention facility in Louisiana, with no court date set for her bond hearing as of March 19, 2025.
Her detention underscores the Trump administration's strict immigration enforcement policies, which include targeting individuals without criminal records.
Bradley Bartell, while advocating for reforms to improve the immigration system, continues to support President Trump despite his wife's detention.
The case has drawn attention to the inefficiencies and human costs of the U.S. immigration system, sparking broader discussions on policy reform.
