The five Mexican nationals went camping with their wives and children over Labor Day weekend at the Mount Baker Snoqualmie National Forest when they say they were approached by forest rangers demanding their IDs, saying there was a trash issue at the campsite. The 38-year-old says they were deceived. He believes rangers weren't there because of the trash, but to see what their immigration status actually was. The men say they only realized people outside their tent were ICE agents after handing over their IDs in the middle of the night. The men say they were handcuffed and shackled around their waist and feet and driven to the detention center in Tacoma, where they spent about six weeks in custody.

The men were released on bond after paying between $10,000 to $15,000 each. says he was relieved to hear the judge set bail. He recalls walking back to his holding cell, smiling, yet sad for the hundreds of other immigrants still detained.
