Mundo · Denver Airport · ArquivoICE Arrests Ecuadorian Woman at Denver Airport — Conflicting Accounts of Her Arrival DateEscrito 7 de setembro de 2026 às 21:22 UTCVerTranscrição0:00ICE agents arrested 27-year-old Chantal0:02Morales Rojas at Denver International0:04Airport on Monday as she tried to board0:06a flight to Oakland, California. The0:07arrest, captured on video, has exposed a0:10critical contradiction about her0:11immigration history. The footage, shot0:13by a witness, shows agents in civilian0:15clothing directing Rojas off the jet0:17bridge. The federal government says she0:19overstayed a visa, but her attorney0:21paints a very different picture. The0:23Department of Homeland Security told0:24American Community Media that Rojas0:26entered the country on October 20th,0:282024 with a visa valid until January0:314th, 2025 and overstayed. But her0:33attorney, Laura Lichter, says Rojas0:35arrived nearly two years earlier in0:36early 2023 on a J-1 exchange visitor0:39visa as an au pair, and that she filed a0:41timely application to remain while her0:43case is pending. These two accounts0:45cannot both be true. DHS has not0:47responded to the attorney's version,0:49leaving a nearly two-year gap in the0:50official timeline unexplained. Witness0:52Alicia Dansker filmed the arrest and is0:54heard yelling, "Help us. ICE is here.0:56Help us." In the video, Rojas is0:58repeatedly advised to say nothing at all1:00to officers. Dansker told ABC7 that1:03Rojas was returning from a visit to1:05Denver with her former au pair host1:06family when she was stopped. The video1:08also captures an agent warning a1:10bystander, "I will charge you with 181:12years."1:19That statement, recorded on the jet1:21bridge, has raised questions about the1:22conduct of the arrest. Rojas remains in1:25ICE custody pending removal proceedings.1:28DHS has not responded to inquiries about1:30her attorney's account, leaving a1:31central question unanswered.
