Abstract:

An anonymous Latina woman living in Chapel Hill and her harassment by Bedri Kulla is told to explain the rights that immigrants have in the US when they are victims of a crime. Even if an immigrant is undocumented and not a US citizen, if a crime has been committed against them, they are eligible for legal aid and cannot be deported. Immigrants are often victimized or abused and these women are often afraid to report their abuses and abusers for fear that they will be deported.
