The missing - consequences of Trump's immigration crackdown


In a rural county that voted for Trump, people are shocked to see friends deported and schoolmates disappear. Now a community is coming to terms with the economic and emotional consequences.

The Trump team insists the actions of the deportation force, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), is simply a matter of applying the law and delivering a key election pledge.

Video by the BBC's Franz Strasser.

This story is part of the BBC’s coverage of President Trump’s first year, with reporting from across the US and perspectives from all sides.
