An immigration rights activist whose own undocumented status was exposed by a drunken-driving arrest has lost her six-month legal battle to remain in the country.
Wendy Uruchi Contreras, a Virginia organizer for the immigrant rights group CASA, is scheduled to be deported to Spain this week after last-ditch appeals were denied by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials, according to her husband, Giovani Jimenez.
“We are devastated,” said Jimenez, who lives in Fredericksburg, Va., with their American-born children, Alex, 13, and Lucia, 7. “My children are crying, but we know there’s nothing more we can do.”

Adios.
Invaders.
Led by a DUI.
If you break our laws, bye-bye!
Its NOT your country.
Our house - our rules.
The family can all leave with her. She can take them and her activist self back to where she came from.
I don’t want to hear the husband’s whining.He knew what her status was from the beginning.
“we know there’s nothing more we can do.”
Except apply for legal entry and residence, I suppose.
exposed by a drunken-driving arrest....
Her American born children are crying. Well then you should have shut the ### up, hoped for the best and not driven drunk.
The kids are 13 and 17. They could come right back in 5 and 1 years, respectively. And Spain’s a lot better than Mexico.
She was just doing the drunk driving Americans refuse to do.
I wonder who she voted for.
I wonder who she voted for.
Vamoose!
Or they can stay if pop is a citizen. The kids didn’t #### up, she did. And the kids are citizens.
So..., much..., WINNING!
I’m getting writer’s cramp from pounding that out over and over and over and over...
One less invader.
Obama's ICE was always willing to go after folks that weren't protected by being either Mexis or Muzzies. Since she wasn't an M or M, she was good to go.
When my British husband and I decided to come back to live in the USA, I had to vouch for him. He had a skill that was needed and I had to apply at the American Embassy in London and VOUCH FOR HIM, THAT HE WOULDN’T BE A BURDEN ON THE COUNTRY. What a breath of fresh air it would be to have immigrants again that would be an asset instead of just draining our wealth. These people knew what was coming. She can apply to come back from her native country. But I suspect she will have some obstacles as she lived here ILLEGALLY for years.
But, NO, this one chose to be a drunk, in-your-face, activist.
Well, bye.
undocumented?
She has plenty of documents related to her DEPORTATION
mad laughter
