Missouri ‘Soccer Mom’ Facing Deportation Is Released From Custody
- Carol Mayorga, a mother of three from Kennett, Missouri, was taken into custody by immigration authorities on April 30 and was released on June 4.
- Mayorga legally entered the U.S. From Hong Kong in 2004 and lived under a deportation order with government authorization until ICE ended her protected status in late April, triggering her arrest.
- While she was detained, community members and her employers held a fundraising event at John’s Waffle & Pancake establishment, successfully collecting close to $20,000 despite the area's predominantly pro-Trump political stance.
- Her attorney, Raymond Bolourtchi, confirmed her release under the Deferred Enforcement Departure program, which allows her temporary return home but does not cancel her deportation order.
- After Mayorga’s release from Greene County Jail, the Kennett community welcomed her with family and friends gathered, reflecting ongoing local support as her legal fight continues.
