Her husband had been convicted for DWI and was visiting his probation officer when he was taken into custody and held for 55 days at a private facility in Otero County.

That is what happened here in CA and is why we are a Democratic State.
Pete Wilson tried to intimidate Hispanics into not going to schools and not getting services. The citizens did not cooperate and turned out to vote against Repubs.

And neither police that arrested the Hispanic man for driving under the influence, nor his probation officer checked on his Social Security number, Drivers License or legal status to be in the USA?
Then after being imprisoned for 55 days, ICE decided to send him home, instead of deporting the Hispanic man?
