UCSD student and DACA recipient Orr Yakobi was detained Sunday by U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) after making a wrong turn near the U.S. Mexico Border coming back from San Ysidro.
Quote:
According to his lawyer, immigration attorney Jacob Sapochnick, Yakobi was brought to the U.S. at 5 years old from Israel.

Sapochnick said Yakobi was initially being held by U.S. Customs and Border Protection and will be transferred to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility tonight. Sapochnick spoke to Yakobi earlier today.


“Essentially he did not have any intention to go to Mexico. And he told that to the CBP. He shouldn’t have left and yes he had DACA, but is there any common sense in our system? He made a wrong turn and now his life is pretty much over, because he doesn’t have any basis to stay here other than DACA,” Sapochnick said. “All we need right now is basically some sort of exception.”

Be careful when driving near the border.

You still need to go through customs no? I don’t think Mexico would allow him I. Without a passport either?
