Marealex Castellanos

Marealex Castellanos is a Venezuelan woman who was deported back to Venezuela in July 2024, leaving her nine-year-old daughter behind in the United States. After crossing the treacherous Darién jungle in search of better opportunities, Castellanos faced detention for a traffic violation and has been separated from her daughter, who is now in the care of others. Her case underscores the plight of many Venezuelan migrants and the ongoing familial disruptions caused by immigration enforcement.
