‘We did what I was told impossible,’ says wife of Anou Vongbandith, following his release.
Local chef and Das Good owner Anou Vongbandith is home after a judge granted bond and federal officials did not file the notice that would have automatically stayed his release. His wife, Anh, credited months of neighbor-led letters, rallies, and fundraising—more than $82,000—for keeping their family’s fight alive. She urged the community to keep showing up for all families facing detention.
