After receiving an ankle monitor during a check-in Sunday at an ICE field office in Blue Ash, Ohio, Haitian immigrant Monsanto Maler became emotional and collapsed outside. Now that a Supreme Court decision has cleared the way for the end of their deportation protections, advocates say many Haitians have been required to wear the ankle monitors. “It’s so humiliating,” says Vilès Dorsainvil of the Haitian Community Help and Support Center, one of the men comforting Maler in this photo.
