“My clients were deported within 24 hours of being detained with no access to me,” Hebert said.

Willis denied either mother was given a choice, telling CNN Sunday both wanted their children to remain in the United States.
These are children,” Alanah Odoms, the executive director of the ACLU of Louisiana told CNN Sunday. »
