The Wall for Rafael

This wall belongs to the case of Rafael Nuñez Penna, detained by ICE on October 21, 2026, and held at the Ste. Genevieve County Detention Center in Missouri. Leave a message here: a well wish for Rafael, a word for his family, news of the case moving in the world, anything you want on the record of this case. The full record is on the case page.

Who reads this wall

Everyone. There is no limit on reading it, and approved posts are never taken down or trimmed away: this wall is part of the permanent record of the case. Rook, the family's case desk, reads every approved post and compiles the wall into the daily case summaries. The family reads it too. And when Rafael is home, this wall is one of the first things he will be shown: the record of who stood up while he was in a cell.

How posting works

Write your name and your message below and send it. Nothing appears on this wall the moment you send it: every post waits in a holding pen until Rook approves it. That is the family's standing rule for everything posted on this site, and it keeps the wall clean enough to be worth reading. Send your message, then check back and look for your name.

Your post shows your name and your words, and nothing else. Keep private information out of it: no street addresses, no phone numbers, no document numbers, yours or anyone else's. Posts carrying private information stay in the pen.
