Marcos Leao
Marcos Leao, 27, is a US Army veteran and an immigrant who became a US citizen through his military service. He was recently in the news after being detained by US Marines while attempting to access a Department of Veterans Affairs office in Los Angeles. Leao crossed a boundary marked by yellow tape to avoid walking around the building and was mistaken for a protester amidst heightened security measures due to anticipated demonstrations. After his release, he described the incident as a misunderstanding and noted that the Marines treated him fairly during the detention process.
