"My father is no threat to society he is one of the most warm hearted people I know, he would never harm a soul," Gia wrote.
Teresa and Joe Giudice's daughter Gia is opening up about her father's possible deportation.
A judge ruled last Wednesday that Joe -- who is currently serving 41 months in prison for mail, wire and bankruptcy fraud -- will be deported to Italy after he completes his sentence in 2019. The eldest daughter of the "Real Housewives of New Jersey" stars posted a throwback picture of her and her father to Instagram Sunday. Gia, 17, urged her followers to "spread the word" in her plea to have her father stay in the U.S.

"My father is no threat to society he is one of the most warm hearted people I know, he would never harm a soul. He puts everyone else before himself. I know who my father is and I think many of you do too. My father did his time and learned from his mistakes."
"Isn't being in there supposed to make you realize your mistakes so you can become a better person?" she continued. "And that's exactly what my father did. He hasn't felt or looked this good since he was in his 30's. We have so many plans to do as a family when he gets out. I need my father to be here."
"My father belongs with us and his entire family. My father came into this country when he was one years old, the United States is the only country he knows, spread the word #bringjoehome."

Gia's post comes just days after she shared a video of comedian Fred Rubino, who slammed U.S. immigration policies, calling it a "racist, broken system."
"Spread the word, [could not have] said it better myself," Gia, 17, captioned the video. "I love you daddy, let's fight this! @fredrubino thank you."
Teresa, who served 11 months in prison in 2015 on similar charges, took to her own Instagram account to share her thoughts on her husband's deportation. The reality star posted a photo Sunday of the Statue of Liberty crying.

Joe will be deported to his native Italy at the end of March. He has until November 9 to file an appeal.
