A mother and her three children who were detained last month in northern New York state and taken to Texas were being returned to New York, officials said Monday.
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, who had criticized the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency's decision to detain the family as "just plain cruel," said she was informed of the family's return to the state by President Trump's "border czar" Tom Homan.
"I cannot imagine the trauma these kids and their mom are feeling, and I pray they will be able to heal when they return home," Hochul said in a statement.
