Wife of Georgia Senator Fights Deportation

ATLANTA - The Colombia-born wife of a Georgia state senator, who had been in hiding as federal immigration officials try to deport her, turned herself in Tuesday to face an order to remove her from the country.

Sascha Herrera, 28, arrived at the Martin Luther King Federal Building shortly before 8 a.m. to face authorities in the Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office.

"I'm very nervous right now," Herrera said. "I think I'm doing the right thing. I hope my name and my husband's name is clean."

Her husband, State Sen. Curt Thompson said, "The main goal is to make sure after the interview that they will allow Sascha to go home."

She had been in hiding since Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers arrived at her home Nov. 28 with an order to remove her from the U.S. She was not home at the time.

Her attorney, Charles Kuck, claims she was duped by a man handling her immigration requests and that she never received the immigration notices that triggered her deportation order.

My Comments:
This woman is obviously innocent. She should definitely NOT be deported.

  2. "But not as innocent as Adriana Lima."

    That goes without saying. Miss Lima is the most obviously innocent of all South American women.

  3. See there really is a lot more to a general amenesty than most Conservatives realize...

    Thanks for getting the word out on this story Jay, it also serves as as a reminder that you may just be due for another Lima post. I heard a rumor a while back that she was dating the Prince of Lichtenstein.
