‘I want to stay longer’: Haitian man, family members worry about deportations with protections rescinded
LAKELAND, Fla. (WFLA) – Members of two Polk County families said they are devastated over decisions by the Trump administration that threaten to deport their loved ones back to Haiti, a war-torn, gang-controlled country.

“These are people. This is not stuff that we’re moving around. These are people’s lives,” said Dawn Chappelear.

Chappelear and her husband, John, moved to Haiti in 2013 to do full-time missionary work.

During their time there, they met Cabila Toussaint, a Haitian boy.
