The three US Marine fathers who were beaten and worked hard on Orange County’s masked federal agents are set to be released on bonds after spending 20 days in federal custody.
Narciso Baranco, an undocumented immigrant who lived in the United States for decades, married a US citizen and the father of two active American Marines and one veteran, and his family said an immigration judge was ordered to be released on a $3,000 bond on Thursday. He is expected to be released from federal immigration facilities in Adelanto in the coming days.
Baranco has applied for parole. This allows certain undocumented immigrants to stay in the country waiting for changes in their immigrant status.
Alejandro Baranco said he only saw his father a few times as he was worked hard and beaten by Masked Federal Agents in Orange County.
His video went viral last month. His family said that masked agents also said Pepper sprayed the Ballanco.
The first thing Alejandro Baranco wants to do for his 48-year-old father is to take him to the hospital because he is not sure if his family is receiving proper care for his injuries.
“He said he was still struggling,” 25-year-old Alejandro Barranco told The Times. “He still says his eyes hurt, his shoulder, his back hurts. He said he has a headache. He believes he suffered a concussion from the assault.
In his be-hit video, Narciso Baranco watches a masked man approach him on June 21, carrying a weed attacker outside Santa Anai Hop. His son said that Valenko began to run away because he was afraid.
The federal government has arrested “illegal foreigners” who resisted arrest and confirmed that they had shaked weeds with agents. This video shows Ballanco walking away from the masked man, lifting up the gardening tool while spraying pepper spray.
“The agents are taking appropriate measures and following their training, using the minimum amount of force necessary to resolve the situation in a way that prioritizes the safety of the public and our officers. He is currently under ice custody,” the deputy secretary of the Department of Homeland Security said in a statement.
Alejandro Barranco said his family was unable to speak to him after a roughly 30-minute hearing on Thursday. However, he could say that his father was relieved.
“We were all escorted as soon as we finished, but he looked happy. His body language was even more relaxed,” Alejandro Baranco said of his father.
Orange Councillor Ariana Barrios attended the hearing Thursday and showed her support from Tustin resident.
“Today was a good day with this new battle for civil rights, legitimate processes and humanitarian principles,” Barrios said in a Facebook post. “Mr. Baranco will be released on bonds tomorrow (Friday) afternoon.
Narciso Barranco’s sons, Emmanuel and Jose Luis Barranco, are active Marines, and Alejandro Barranco are veterans. Their father arrived in the United States from Morelos, Mexico in the 1990s and married a mother, a US citizen.
According to his son, the landscaper is dedicated to his work. On his first call to his family after he was taken into custody, Senior Baranco asked his sons to check out his truck and gardening equipment. He was worried that he could not finish his job for his clients, according to his family.
“I wouldn’t have thought he was in this position just because he had no criminal history. He never did anything wrong here,” Alejandro Barranco said. “That’s not something I would have thought would happen before.”
