An octogenarian French woman, who was married to an American, was detained in Louisiana, USA, according to her family. She was reportedly taken by ICE on April 1st. There has been no contact with her since. The French consulate in Atlanta is closely monitoring the situation and working towards her release.
The octogenarian had decided to settle in the US and marry an American, a former Air Force colonel, in 2025. They had known each other for decades and reconnected after both becoming widowed. She was awaiting a court decision on her succession before returning to France. Her family hopes for her swift return.
ICE’s handling of the situation has drawn criticism amid its tough stance on migrants under President Donald Trump’s administration.
