“There’s an enormous amount of guilt, was the first thing I felt,” Hopkey said. “We had a hole in the fence that needed to be patched. He was working here. He went to pick up some lumber from Home Depot and that’s when he was taken.”

Osorio came to the U.S. illegally from Guatemala around 20 years ago. He has since raised a family in Southern California, worked to provide for his wife and children and paid his taxes, his family said.

Friends and neighbors told KTLA they were distraught to hear of Osorio’s detainment. They described him as a hardworking family man who is loved by his community.

“We’re reeling from it,” said Alex Meiners, a friend. “He’s the first person I thought about [when the ICE raids began.] Just seeing how they were doing it and just targeting brown people. He’s been here for 20 years. He’s been a community member. He goes to church.”
