Justice for Maria Suarez
Maria Suarez has been released from prison after 22 years. At 16, she was sold as a sex slave to a man who abused her for five years.
....his neighbors, a young couple who feared the man known as a witch doctor, clubbed him to death. Suarez, who washed and hid the weapon, was convicted of conspiring in the murder.
The case has made major headlines because the U.S. said she would be deported upon being released. Homeland Security has finally acted --she can stay in the U.S. Ms. Suarez went home yesterday with her 86 year old mother. She is 44.
