WASHINGTON (AP) — Following reports of deportations to South Sudan, the Trump administration said Wednesday it has deported eight migrants convicted of crimes in the United States.
Immigration authorities refused to say what their final destinations would be, but said their home countries had refused to receive the migrants.
Immigration rights lawyers have said that the deportations violated a court order against deporting people to countries other than their homelands without first allowing them to argue the removal could put them in danger.
