Tagged: New JerseyPosted on: February 2nd, 2007“In her bare Cohansey Street home Thursday afternoon, Luria Hernandez Escobar sat bewildered with her swathed 15-day-old son in her arms, wondering just when she would see her baby’s father again.
Lazaro Perez Velazces, 25, was one of more than a dozen city residents taken early Monday morning in a federal immigration sweep, and Escobar, 26, has not heard from him since he and her brother Beltran, 23, were handcuffed and escorted into a white van by federal agents.”
