What happens after someone tells a U.S. immigration official, “I’m afraid to go back”? Behind that single sentence is an entire human story, but there is also a complicated legal process that asks government officials to listen, evaluate evidence, apply the law, and make decisions that can profoundly affect another person’s life.
In this episode, we’re joined by Heather Hogan, a former asylum officer and supervisory asylum officer who spent nearly a decade working inside the U.S. asylum system. Heather takes us behind the scenes of credible fear screenings, affirmative and defensive asylum, officer training, credibility determinations, and the difficult realities of interviewing people about some of the worst experiences of their lives. We also talk about how her faith shaped the way she approached authority, compassion, and the people sitting across from her.
