A Texas teenager who was mistakenly deported to Colombia was reunited with her family Friday. Jakadrien Lorce Turner, 15, had run away from home more than a year ago and was arrested in April 2011 using the name Tika Cortez, an identity that tied her to a 21-year-old illegal immigrant from Colombia. She was deported in May, despite not even being fluent in Spanish. Jakadrien’s family is now questioning how a minor could have been deported and why officials didn’t do more to confirm her identity. For now, her family’s attorney said that Jakadrien, who is pregnant, is “happy to be home” and her family is “ecstatic” to be reunited with her.
