A Guatemalan woman who crossed the US border eight months pregnant and gave birth in Arizona has avoided fast-track deportation after intervention by Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs.
According to News 13, the spokesperson said, “Governor Hobbs has been clear in her opposition to inhumane immigration enforcement practices. ”
“I’m hoping to get news either today or tomorrow that she’s been released,” said the woman’s lawyer, Luis Campos, saying that Phoenix immigration lawyers had offered him their help at Hobbs’ request.
Campos said the woman, whom he identified as “Erika,” fled a “violent situation” in Guatemala, according to her mother, who requested that he represent her.
