Father Deported After Teen Misdemeanor | Kansas City News

A Kansas father of two, Oscar Sanchez-Corona, was detained by ICE at a worksite in Lawrence and deported to Mexico just three weeks later—leaving his kids behind. Brought to the U.S. as a baby and raised in Kansas, he’s now caught in a surge of ICE arrests in the state, up 90% from last year—including people with minor or no criminal records. Family says his arrest stems from a teen misdemeanor 15 years ago, and they’re heartbroken that a mistake so long ago could tear apart his family. His brother-in-law called him a regular American who loves local sports and spends time with his kids. After being moved through multiple detention centers across Louisiana and Texas, his family struggled to find him and get legal help. His swift deportation has sparked alarm about how immigration enforcement is shifting—and what it means for families across the country.
