A California mother who accused an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) contractor of sexual harassment was reportedly deported to Mexico last week, despite a court granting her an emergency reprieve, according to her attorneys.
Silvia Reyna Mendoza, a longtime Sacramento resident and mother of eight U.S. citizen children, was sent to Mexico early Friday morning, KCRA 3 reported.
Her legal team told the outlet that she had received an emergency temporary stay later that same day, but the deportation had already occurred.
A spokesperson for the contractor told Newsweek that it "takes all allegations of sexual abuse and harassment with the utmost seriousness."
Newsweek has contacted the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the woman's attorney for comment via email.
