Podcast Overview

A true, first-person account of what happens after the arrest — when a life becomes a file. Season One follows a year inside ICE detention, moving through county jails, transfer buses, courtrooms, and holding cells across Florida and beyond. Told by the person who lived it, this season captures the mental weight of waiting, the men inside, and the slow loss of identity inside the immigration system. This is not politics. Not legal theory. It’s survival in the in-between. Written, narrated and created by Quasi Lewis

EPISODE 15: GONE

After more than a year in ICE detention, multiple transfers, lockdowns, appeals, and uncertainty, my name is finally called for the last time. From Krome… to Louisiana… to a deportation flight back to Jamaica during the height of the pandemic, this is the final chapter of my detention story. In this season finale, I reflect on the people I met, the conversations that stayed with me, the pain of leaving my life in America behind, and the unexpected peace waiting for me on the other side. This isn’t just a story about deportation. It’s about survival, identity, loss, growth… and finding freedom again after everything falls apart.

EPISODE 14: THE BEGINNING OF THE END

By the time I got back to Krome… something in me had changed. The fear was quieter.The anger was fading.And the hope I saw in the newer detainees felt unfamiliar now. As the pandemic spread through the world outside, life inside detention kept moving the same — quarantine dorms, rumors, phone calls, card games, and men trying to convince themselves everything would somehow work out. Some still believed they were going home to America. I wasn’t so sure anymore. This was the point where survival turned into acceptance. The beginning of the end.

EPISODE 13: FURTHER AWAY Pt 2

Baker County wasn’t just another stop. It felt like a place you get sent to be forgotten. The conditions were worse. The isolation was deeper. And the people… each one carrying their own story, their own way of surviving. Some prayed.Some joked.Some played chess. Me… I learned how to sit in it. As the pandemic spread and time slowed down, reality started to settle in. This wasn’t temporary. This was my life now. And no matter what I did…I couldn’t stop it from moving further away.
