Under President Donald Trump, being in the country illegally means being in the country illegally.

Roxana Orellana Santos, an illegal immigrant and immigration activist who sued a Maryland County in 2009 for wrongful arrest, has been detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Fox News reported.

An incident likely to make Santos a household name when the liberal media comes to embrace her cause, as protests are already in full gear.

Santos was detained despite a claim by her lawyer, Nick Katz, that a court order allows her to remain in the U.S.

Katz told the Frederick News-Post his client has been attending routine check-ins with the immigration enforcement agency since her arrest in 2008, and even though she is scheduled for a check-in next week, the agency is not releasing her.

“Roxana feels she belongs here,” Katz said. “She’s away from her children. CASA is fighting for her. She has a case pending with the Board of Immigration Appeals. They could deport her today before that case is heard.”

(CASA is the Court Appointed Special Advocates, and the organization’s attorneys are representing Santos.)

Even though she is in the country illegally, Santas has already had one major victory in the U.S. legal system after she was detained during a routine immigration check-in.
