Detainees at the Bluebonnet immigrant detention center in the small city of Anson, Texas, sent the outside world a message this week: S-O-S.

The Bluebonnet facility in Texas houses many Venezuelans. The US immigration officials have issued notices to them, accusing them of being members of the notorious transnational gang Tren de Aragua. The notice also states that all the accused will be deported under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798,

The facility, located about 200 miles west of Dallas, has been at the center of controversy, particularly over the planned deportation of Venezuelan detainees.
