In his own words:
“It is so good to be back home after 10 years overseas. We had a good run, America. Never had my freedom taken from me, so this experience with ICE was hell, but I’m grateful to be out of ICE custody and home with family! I’m grateful for my wonderful wife, God’s blessing to me from above fr. Thank you for standing by me every single moment during this ICE detention.
Huge appreciation goes to my family for their support, and I appreciate everyone who sent well wishes, prayers, financial support, and words of encouragement. I left America blessed, free and alive, which is a lot to be grateful for. Currently resetting and planning, but wanted you to know I’m free from the Claws of the Trump administration,” he wrote.
