Some time ago now, I wrote about the fact that ICE had deported 3 kids, high school kids, on a raid on a trolley in San Diego. Well, more news have come out of that in that regard.

Those 3 kids have been readmitted to the US. They have come back in what is known as a humanitarian parole.

This is what originally happened.

The students, who were on their way to school, admitted to being in the country illegally after being questioned by federal agents and were voluntarily returned to Mexico, said Daryl Reed, supervisory agent for the Border Patrol. He said they were sent to Mexico after officials failed to find proper legal guardians for the teenagers in the United States.

This makes me question, were the kids trying to protect their parents by not revealing their parents to the agents. Wow, that’s a choice no kid should EVER have to make and yet, if that is what happened, they made a hard choice and took the fall for being in the wrong place, at the wrong time.

The kids are now back, and will be working with attorneys so that they can remain in the country.

My original post about the kids.

The article detaling them coming back.
