"Family Expresses Alarm: Individual Missing After Incorrect Deportation to foreign Nation"

In a heart-wrenching turn of events, Jessica Cuellar Portillo, a member of a northwestern Arizona family, is left in limbo after her husband, Miguel Cuellar Portillo, was deported to Mexico instead of El Salvador.

Miguel, who came to the United States illegally 19 years ago, was going through the process of applying for citizenship when he was detained. He was held at the immigration detention center in Florence for a week, up until Aug. 21, when he was deported. However, the deportation paperwork listed El Salvador as his destination.

Despite this, Miguel was left somewhere in Mexico, causing Jessica to launch a frantic search for her husband. She has called everyone she can think of but no one can tell her where in Mexico Miguel was taken.

Jessica describes the deportation as a "devastating mistake" by immigration officials, calling it a "betrayal" and a "forced disappearance." The feds have stated that the agency is looking into the matter, but Immigration and Customs Enforcement has not responded to questions about why Miguel was deported to Mexico instead of El Salvador.

The Salvadoran consulate is continuing the search for Miguel, hoping he is found safe. Jessica's fight now is to locate her husband and make sure he gets to the right country, which was supposed to be El Salvador.

Jessica's sleepless nights and relentless search for Miguel have taken a toll on her. She is not sleeping much due to her efforts to find her husband.

In 2012, Miguel was issued a deportation order but did not leave the country. The specific reason for his deportation in 2021 is not detailed in the available information. It is also confirmed that Miguel was not taken on any migrant planes.

The situation has left Jessica and the family in a state of uncertainty and worry. As they continue their search for Miguel, they hope for a swift resolution and the safe return of their loved one.
