Baton Rouge mother who faced deportation reunites with family

BATON ROUGE, La. (Louisiana First) — A Baton Rouge woman who previously faced deportation has been reunited with her family, according to her immigration attorney.

Paola Clouatre, 25, had been at the Richwood Correctional Facility in Monroe for several months. She was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in New Orleans when she and her husband went to get clarity on a deportation order. The family claimed the order was issued after Clouatre’s estranged mother did not attend a hearing years ago, something unknown to the Clouatres.

Clouatre was released on recognizance the morning of July 28. Carey Holliday, the family’s immigration attorney, said he received the news around 10:50 a.m. that day she would reunite with her family in Baton Rouge.

“I’m very relieved ICE has been able to see the light and let this person, who didn’t deserve to be detained, be released, so she can address her problems and take care of her family,” Holliday said.

Last week, Adrian Clouatre confirmed to Louisiana First Investigates that his wife would avoid deportation after a judge agreed to issue a stay of removal order and an order to reexamine the case. An ICE spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment at that time.
