Special circumstances


US Army veteran who served two tours in Afghanistan has been deported to Mexico

Army veteran who served two tours in Afghanistan has been deported to Mexico, US Immigration and Customs Enforcement said.

The deportation follows an earlier decision by US authorities to deny Miguel Perez’s citizenship application because of a felony drug conviction, despite his service and the PTSD he says it caused.

Perez, 39, was escorted across the US-Mexico border from Texas and handed over to Mexican authorities Friday, ICE said in a statement.

 

It is very difficult to separate hardship cases from the rest of the pack when it comes to deportation.

I believe that there should be a list of SPECIAL CONDITIONS drawn up where any person, regardless of the general rule is given extra consideration before sending them back where they came from.  Serving 2 tours in the war in my opinion should qualify under special circumstances.

As the old cliche goes:
