The children left behind: Dad's deportation lands son in foster care | Deseret News:
OGDEN — Isaac Lugo wasn't worried when the cop pulled up behind his dad's car, lights flashing. The two were stopped at a red light on the way home from picking up pizza for a father-son movie night. His dad drummed on the wheel impatiently. They bantered back and forth, trying to guess what the fuss was about. When another police car rumbled up behind the first, the 16-year-old--a tall, wiry Mexican boy -- was confused. But it wasn't until his dad was in handcuffs because of an unpaid parking ticket and he was alone in the car — miles from home without a driver's license — that he had any premonition of what was coming.
