Now that we have the spin of the bay paper, does anyone have the real facts of the case. My opinion is load him up and ship him out, the kid and mother can go with him.
Anytime the ninth circuit follows the law I am surprised!!!
From court decision: "charging him with being removable as an alien convicted of an aggravated felony. DHS based this charge on state statutory rape convictions stemming from Estrada-Espinoza’s relationship with his younger girlfriend. In June 2001, Estrada-Espinoza met Sonia Arredondo. At the time of their meeting, Estrada-Espinoza was 20 years old and Arredondo was either 15 or 16 years old."
So it would appear that she also was an illegal and the conviction would never have taken place if someone did not file a complaint, so there goes the old consensual.
No can do.
