Abstract:

In September 2022, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis used an undercover recruiter to lure 49 Venezuelan migrants onto the island of Martha's Vineyard with a false promise of jobs and housing - a stunt which fueled a political and media firestorm. MARTHA'S VINEYARD V. DESANTIS tells this story through the personal lens of four migrant cousins who now live on the Vineyard, and the lead attorneys and Texas sheriff who are aggressively fighting back against DeSantis and his cronies.
