Father In Texas Desperate For Help After Wife & Kids Deported To Mexico

[RAMROD 117,036]

A husband and a father is fighting to get his family back together after his wife and four children were recently deported to Mexico.

Federico Arellano Jr.'s attorneys are working to get lawmakers involved in the reunification process.

Arellano's biggest concern is his newborn twin girls.

"Yo quiero a mi familia. Estoy solo," he said.

He was left to be on his own when his loved ones were taken into custody in front of his eyes earlier this month.

They were arrested and removed from the United States because they missed an immigration court hearing. Arrellano, who is a US citizen, said he asked to reschedule the court appearance because his wife, a non-citizen, had an emergency C-section to give birth to premature twins in Houston.

Last week, though, they were called to meet with immigration authorities in the Greenspoint area, but when they got there, ICE agents arrested Christina Salazar, 23, as well as her four children -- including the twins born in September. They were all put on a plane to McAllen and then escorted to Reynosa, Mexico.

Silvia Mintz, one of the attorneys now representing the family, said it was a technical violation and there were several legal options available. Instead, they were deported without having a chance to fight it.

ain't surprised, this is what the majority of US citizens wanted  

[Flippy 14,254]

 the fact that this is happening and the Cheeto hasn’t even started his reign is crazy…

[Concertaholic 6,578]

The twins are literally US citizens, this is crazy. If all four of the children are his biological kids, then the other children are US citizens too…

[Economy 52,845]

The circumstances too. Obviously if u have to have an emergency C-section ur gonna miss the hearing

 

This is why i hate rigid laws and rules. Its always about the technicalities rather than the relevant point of substance

 

Disgusting situation in general. I hope they are able to sort it out

This feels like a few drops of water leaking out before the dam breaks. There are going to be hundreds of thousands of these stories happening weekly after January.

This is sick

I've posted before about how I've been deported from several countries but I've never been set up quite like this
