> Cristy Maryori Villafranca-Trejo, the wife of an active-duty US soldier, was deported to Honduras on Monday. She is at least the seventh spouse or parent of an active-duty service member removed during Donald Trump’s second presidency. Her husband said her detention left him caring for their six-year-old daughter while trying to continue his military duties.
