Donnie Anderson Wilson is a 51-year-old father and a long-time resident of Washington state. Having arrived in the United States legally as a refugee following the killing of his parents in Vietnam, Donnie was adopted by an American family and has since dedicated his life to his profession, his family, and his community. As a respected professional hairdresser and trainer, Donnie has not only contributed positively to the local economy but also enriched the lives of many through his skills and community involvement.

On October 26, Donnie was unexpectedly detained by ICE and moved to Louisiana, a state far from his home and support network in Washington. This move has raised significant concerns about the fairness and adequacy of his legal representation. In Washington, Donnie has access to a network of legal professionals who understand his case, his community who supports him, and resources that are crucial for a proper defense.

It is imperative that Donnie's case be moved back to Washington, where he can receive fair representation. The isolation in Louisiana not only hinders his access to appropriate legal counsel but also separates him from his children, friends, and the community that considers him one of their own.

This petition is a call for compassion and justice, urging ICE to transfer Donnie Anderson Wilson back to Washington state. It is a plea to prioritize fairness and family unity over bureaucratic processes that disregard personal histories and community ties.

Sign this petition to stand with Donnie and advocate for the relocation of his case to ensure he receives the just and fair treatment he deserves. Let's unite our voices for justice and support a devoted father and community member. Your signature can help bring Donnie home to Washington where he belongs.
