Tiffany Smyth is married to Seamus Culleton, who despite having a valid work permit was detained in September
The wife of an Irish man who has been held by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for five months - despite having a valid work permit – is pleading for help in instigating his release from the “dire conditions” he is facing in detention.
“I just want him home where he belongs. I want us to be able to finish what we started,” Tiffany Smyth, wife of Seamus Culleton, said during a Wednesday press conference.
“Seamus is a good man. He doesn’t deserve what is going on, and it’s heartbreaking. It’s absolutely heartbreaking. I don’t know how I’ve gone on these last five months to be honest, it’s just been awful, and I don’t wish this upon anybody.”
Smyth added that she is a US citizen and has lived her whole life in the Boston area.
