Jane N. and her husband checked into a Motel 6 on June 28, 2017, seeking air-conditioned relief from Phoenix temperatures surpassing 100 degrees.
The next morning, the couple was awakened by immigration agents pounding on the door and subsequently detained. Two days later, Jane N. was deported to Mexico. She blames the motel.
