Two U.S. citizen children were deported Wednesday morning to Mexico along with their mother, according to an attorney who has consulted with the family.

Cori Hash, a senior staff attorney with Immigrant Legal Resource Center, told The Dallas Morning News on Wednesday that the family was detained last week near the campus of Dobie Middle School in North Austin.

Texas Department of Public Safety Troopers stopped the family on the morning of Wednesday, April 30, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement detained the man. The woman was not detained but was informed to go to an ICE facility in San Antonio the next day. It’s not clear how many of their children were in the car, Hash said.

The man and woman are not married, Hash said, but have been together several years and have three children together. The children are 8, 5 and 4 years old and the two youngest are U.S. citizens, Hash said. The man was deported on Tuesday. The woman and her three children were deported Wednesday morning, Hash said.

Hash asked that the man and woman not be identified to avoid putting them at risk.

“They had no due process whatsoever,” Hash said. “It just goes to show that this administration feels that it can deport U.S. citizens whenever it wishes and however it wishes.”
