Ever since our cousins and other relatives got here, he wanted to come to Miami. If he would've gotten here, I think he would have made his dreams come true.

I called every day to see how he was and finally I called the hospitals here and found out he had died. Joel didn't have any identification on him, so I went and confirmed it was him.

They rammed the boat and I think they were hoping it would sink. If they wanted them to turn around they wouldn't have struck the boat like that.

No one cares about distant relatives nowadays. They went out of fashion years ago.

If they have relatives in the U.S., then they [the relatives] can petition for them to remain here in the U.S.. They may also be held as material witnesses in a criminal human-smuggling operation.

I have a theory of relatives, too. Don't hire 'em.
