Never talked to them much. It was a big family, no one spoke English. But they were all ridiculously nice people. Always waving when they saw me coming in and out of the house. Offered me cake on their kids birthday. I dpnt know the full details, but I know they’ve vacated their apartment and left literally everything. My landlord has an industrial dumpster outside and they’re just tossing everything. Around this time last year was when I got the slice of cake for their kids birthday, and one of the maintenance men who works for my landlord is putting a brand new bicycle from their house inside his truck… at least it’s not going to waste, but still.
Its so haunting seeing how their apartment is being gutted. They even left one of their cars. No idea what they’re gonna do with it.
My landlord told me to take a look in the apartment and grab anything if I want it. They have a lot of good stuff im sure, but it doesn’t feel right.

If you want to be nice, if you find any photos or anything they couldn’t take with them, you could always hold onto it and maybe one day if you ever get into contact with them, you could mail it to them?
As for anything you find there, it’s definitely not right, but if you know they’re not coming back for sure, I think since you were a well-wisher, they probably wouldn’t mind it going to you instead of their landlord or whoever is gonna sell it for a profit to themselves?
That is very sad. Too bad someone couldn’t have had a yard sale and sell everything and send them the money.
Fucking trump and his worshippers. I bet they were excited to uproot this family, whether here legally or not. I’m guessing they were somehow linked to MS13
Edit: Jesus Christ, it’s fucking sarcasm and based on Trump literally claiming deported individuals are linked to MS13 whether proven or not. Get a grip.
I’m not changing my comment. Fuck trump. He’s racist and is WIDELY deporting Hispanic individuals, hence my comment being more towards them. If you wanna pretend that’s not the case that’s a you problem.
>Kilmar Abrego García was wrongfully deported and the Supreme Court ordered his return. Trump refuses to do so and claims gang association. Reported as of this morning. Ignoring this means you’re apart of the problem. It could be your neighbor wrongfully deported. Will you be racist for mentioning that instead of each individual race effected as well?
Why did they get deported

Search for a phone number. Perhaps a phone if you’re lucky. Also look under the mattress for any documents of them, birth certificates, passports, etc and if you’re able to contact them you know what to do.
I hope you can contact them and find any of those important documents. If you find them, let the landlord know if LL can have your phone number in case a family member gets to the apartment in their name and need to contact you for their stuff.
Trump is destroying everything good about America. Plus, Trump’s violent regime isn’t going to stop with immigrants. It’s probably only a matter of months before he starts sending Americans to be tortured in El Salvador. How can so many people support this regime using immigration to distract from the obvious government corruption occurring under his watch???
Ugh… sad
I’m so fucking disgusted with our country
Most of us are good people. (OP is proof of this)
We have the worst people in America running things
I’m so f*in tired
Can you try to find out what happened to them? Did they go to church or school nearby? Maybe ask your landlord for tgeir contact info?
Many years ago I lived in an apartment complex that was 90% Hispanic, people would abandon their apartments with everything in them often enough that the maintenance guy who lived there told me every single thing in his home was abandoned there. It’s sad, we never know why, but it isn’t new either, unfortunately it’ll probably happen more and more.
