US Betrayed Me For Deporting My Mom, Says US Army Officer

(CNN) A US Army officer got a call he was dreading on Thursday.

His mom had been deported to Mexico. She called her family from the other side of the border to let them know.

"I feel betrayed, to be honest," 2nd Lt. Gibram Cruz told CNN affiliate KSWB. "A country that I'm serving, which I've served proudly... These policies that are put in place to keep my family safe have let me severely down."

Cruz and his family had been trying for months to convince officials to let his mother, Rocio Rebollar Gomez, remain in the United States.

The case drew national attention last month when the US Army officer flew home for the holidays and told the San Diego Union-Tribune he feared it would be their last Christmas together. Traveling to see her in Mexico wouldn't be possible due to military restrictions, he told reporters Thursday.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Rebollar Gomez was deported Thursday after exhausting all legal avenues for appeal.

A spokeswoman for the agency noted that Rebollar Gomez had been deported previously and that a judge had ordered her removal.

Reentering the United States after deportation is a felony under federal law, she said.

"The prioritization of immigration fugitives since the inception of ICE emphasizes their arrest and removal because they deliberately ignored a federal judge's order," ICE spokeswoman Paige D. Hughes said. "Intentionally failing to carry out final orders of removal is negligence and undermines the entire framework of immigration enforcement, as established by Congress, and renders federal law useless."

Family members rallied behind her
Cruz previously applied to a program that protects relatives of active US military members from deportation, but the request was denied, family members said. CNN is working to confirm the reason for the denial.

Rebollar Gomez had lived in San Diego for more than 30 years, family members said. She'd been deported three times previously. Each time, she returned to the United States to be with her children, family members told reporters.

"Yes, she has a deportation record, but she came back for us," daughter Karla Cruz said Thursday. "Everything that she's done is for us to keep us here, to give us an opportunity. She's the heart of our family. She's taught us everything we know."

With Rebollar Gomez at their side, family members held a press conference outside the ICE office where she was heading for a check-in Thursday. Once again, they asked officials to block her deportation, waving signs that said, "Don't separate our family" and "Military moms deserve to stay" as TV cameras rolled.

But shortly after the press conference, family members got word that Rebollar Gomez had been deported.

Arrant nonsense!!! USA armed forces is a volunteer force. You should have joined Mexican armed forces. Or resign from your commission in USA armed forces and join the Mexican armed forces. USA is country of law and order.

lets stop making silly excuses.. lets start developing our own country

If Mexico or Nigeria spends all its drug money or crude oil money on asphalt all our roads would be tarred, if we spend it on Powerplant, we would have stable electricity to attract investors that can create jobs, and if it is steel plant like ajaokuta, we would soon become a developed nation

US built its country by plunging it self into heavy debt and serious borrowing, There roads where built on loans same as there train and other infrastructure... citizens pay as high as 30% of there income as tax to refund their debts..

Mexicans cant just breeze in and out to take Americans Jobs or enjoy American infrastructures while Americans pay back the Debt

NO MATTER whose HEAD is involved, the RULE OF LAW must be abided in the US.
They Make LAWS to keep Everybody, including the PRESIDENCY in Check.
SOLDIER, the issue here is that ur MOM got into the US illegally and the RULE OF LAW is supreme and same LAW is interpreted for everyone.
However, Cry no more for she can always visit and possibly start up the genuine Process

However, in NIGERIA, LAWS are made for the PAUPERS.
In Nigeria, you Find the SENATE, ARMY, JUDICIARY, DSS and the POLICE pledging allegiance to the ASO ROCK rather than the CONSTITUTION that protects Everyone.

Imagine SENTOR OMO-AGEGE who should be a FORCE on his own, to checkmate the excesses of the Presidency, now being the one to KNEEL before the President because he was offered the seat of the deputy senate President who happens to be FLOOR MEMBER only waiting to act on the directive of the senate President.

IMAGINE what would have happened if he was made the senate President, may be he would have BELLY-WALKED or ROLLED into ASO ROCK to be felicitated with the president.

Imagine the KANO HISBA POLICE, arresting a NIGERIAN POLICE OFFICER for an ISLAMIC OFFENCE rather than a Constitution offence.

I can feel his pain

He's latino, so i'm not surprised. Racism is real in yankee land.

That'll be suicidal man... Highly suicidal.

Both plant and animal life endemic to snow-bound areas develop ways to adapt. Among the adaptive mechanisms for plants are dormancy, seasonal dieback, survival of seeds; and for animals are hibernation, insulation, anti-freeze chemistry, storing food, drawing on reserves from within the body, and clustering for mutual heat

Manage Mexico

Hmm....While some mothers I know went for omugwo in the US and yet to return after so many years!
