A US teen accidentally deported to Columbia

Posted by 2Paige on January 5, 2012 at 2:22pm in Mr Bruns 360 Message Board
A teen from the US ranaway from home about a year ago and was mistaken for a Columbian national, only because she lacked identification. What I don't understand is why they would send a 15-year-old to Columbia thinking that she was a Columbian national when she couldn't speak a word of Spanish! Her family found her a year later.Read the article!http://www.cnn.com/2012/01/05/us/texas-colombia-teen/index.html?hpt=hp_bn1

    I find it kind of funny its her own fault she got sent there. She lied to people.

    This is terrible.... i would be so scared! So was she in Columbia for a whole year then? And living with total strangers... scary!

    I hope they feel like idiots. I would sue them or something.

    OMG that's like bad parenting 101...isn't it? Couldn't those parents get their child taken away from them. If I was one of her parents I would sue the people who sent her there.

    This proves that trust is not something everybody has anymore. They really should've known that this person wasn't Columbian....kind of sad.

    Oh my goodness! How could the government let something like this happen? That's insane! I bet whoever was in charge of that got fired!
