A South Texas doctor was detained by the Department of Homeland Security. The doctor, Rubeliz Bolivar, is an emergency medicine resident at South Texas Health System in McAllen, Texas. She holds a valid work permit and has lived in the US for a decade. Bolivar was detained while traveling with her 5-year-old daughter to a previously scheduled asylum interview.
