Family who fled anti-Mormon, anti-American sentiment will be deported Thursday

An Argentine family who sought asylum in the United States from religious persecution scrambled Wednesday to stuff 10 years of their American life into a few suitcases.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement late Tuesday denied Claudio Correa’s and Deborah Zalazar de Correa’s petition to delay their deportation so Correa could finish treatment for hepatitis C and their son could complete high school. ICE gave them less than two days to prepare for a flight to Buenos Aires on Thursday.
