An American citizen born and raised in California is unsettled after receiving an e-mail from the US Department of Homeland Security ordering him to leave the country “immediately.”

Aldo Martinez-Gomez received the DHS notice on April 11, threatening “criminal prosecution” and fines if he does not depart within seven days.

Martinez-Gomez works full-time assisting immigrants in court for a non-profit and believes his advocacy work may have placed him on the government’s radar.

    Failing to provide the name of the person in the body of the email is incomptetence.

    Fox included the disclaimer about contact email… but IMO the person who built the mail merge was incompetent and that will not prevent ICE from coming after Aldo.
