A federal judge has ordered a hearing to determine whether the Trump administration deported a 2-year-old U.S. citizen with “no meaningful process.”
U.S. District Judge Terry Doughty set the date of May 16 to resolve the matter of the New Orleans-born child, who he said appears to be in Honduras with her mother.
The issue, as Politico reported Friday, stemmed from the deportation of the child’s Honduras-born mother. Trump administration officials claimed in court that the woman had told Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials that she wanted to bring her 2-year-old with her. They offered a handwritten letter in Spanish purportedly from the mother saying as much.
