Holding back tears in a press conference on Thursday, 18-year-old Marcelo Gomes Da Silva detailed the conditions he faced while spending 6 days inside a Burlington ICE detention facility.
In a video released by Marcelo Gomes da Silva's attorney on Wednesday, the teen's mother, father and two younger siblings asked ICE to release him.
The 18-year-old was detained while on his way to volleyball practice. His Massachusetts community is demanding his release.
Marcelo Gomes was joined by his immigration attorney, Rep. Seth Moulton and Rep. Jake Auchincloss. Elon Musk alleged President Donald Trump's name is listed in classified files related to the financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
The family recorded the video in Gomes’s room, where the teen shares a bunk bed with his younger brother, Miguel.
