  "account": "The father of an American navy member serving on the USS Abraham Lincoln, Luis Manuel Aviles, was released from immigration enforcement custody on Tuesday, according to his son Joshua Aviles. Aviles had been detained by immigration authorities on Saturday, just days after his son, Joshua, began his ninth month on the USS Abraham Lincoln, a U.S. navy vessel that has been involved in the conflict in the Strait of Hormuz and holds the record for the longest uninterrupted time at sea. Joshua Aviles shared an update on Facebook, expressing gratitude for the support his family received during this situation and stating that they would not be taking interviews at the moment. The Department of Homeland Security confirmed that Aviles was arrested for being an illegal alien from Nicaragua, having entered the country unlawfully on an unknown date and location. They emphasized that military service does not grant immunity from immigration enforcement and encouraged illegal aliens to leave the country through the CBP Home App. Aviles, 48, was arrested while taking his car to a mechanic in Key West, Florida, where he works as a handyman. He has lived in the U.S. for 19 years and is dedicated to working to support his family.",
