U.S. Army Veteran Who Self-Deported Under Threat of ICE Removal Speaks Out

Season 2025 Episode 7278 | 18m 32s

Under threat of ICE raids, many immigrants are making the decision to leave the United States - even when it means leaving their families. One such case is US Army veteran Sae Joon Park, who was recently forced to self-deport to South Korea over decades-old drug charges linked to PTSD. The Purple Heart recipient and his attorney, Danicole Ramos, join Michel Martin to tell Park's story.
