This National Immigrant Justice Center action page asks the public to demand an investigation of Audemio Orozco-Ramirez's reported rape, certification of his cooperation for a possible U visa, and implementation of Prison Rape Elimination Act protections in immigration facilities. It explains how language barriers, detention practices, and the threat of deportation obstructed his ability to report the assault and seek justice.
The petition joined NIJC's national advocacy with Shahid and MIJA's work in Montana, turning a client's case into a focused call for both individual protection and system-wide detention reform.
