Canadian mother and her seven-year-old daughter detained in Texas: husband
Tania Warner and her autistic daughter were detained despite having documents; officials suggested self-deportation to reduce paperwork, family remains in Texas detention centers.
- On March 14, Tania Warner and her daughter Ayla Lucas were detained at Sarita, Texas, while returning from a baby shower, then moved to Dilley detention centre.
- Edward Warner says his wife provided border patrol documents showing she could reside and work in the U.S., yet agents cited fingerprint processing in Washington and later said they weren’t legally allowed in the country.
- A border patrol agent took their documents, returned about 10 minutes later saying Tania would need to be fingerprinted, and then told Edward about fingerprinting for Ayla roughly 10 minutes later, and both never returned to the vehicle.
- Edward Warner has started a GoFundMe, contacted the Canadian Embassy, and says their lawyer should gain access, while Global Affairs Canada is aware and has received requests for assistance.
- The family detention centre in Dilley has faced controversy over conditions, and officials reportedly offered the mother and daughter a 'self-deport' option, which they rejected, citing it as a paperwork measure.
