School Squatter Heads Back To Mexico
Francisco Javier Serrano, 21, flew home to Mexico City. Last fall, an immigration judge gave him 120 days to leave the United States.
Several reporters met Serrano as he arrived at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport on Thursday afternoon.
“I’m nervous. I’m waiting to see my family,” he said. “I called my mom yesterday, and she was very excited – screaming and all.
He said he wasn’t bitter. “I don’t blame this country; I think it’s the right thing to do for me to go back to Mexico,” he said.
Herbert Igbanugo, Serrano’s attorney, said Serrano understood he had a tough case in immigration court.
“The district did not want to set a bad precedent and encourage people to come and stay illegally,” Igbanugo said.
Last winter, Serrano said he fled his temporary home in Connecticut for Minnesota after his father deserted him.
He had once attended school in the Minneapolis suburb of Apple Valley, and decided to live there. For about three weeks, he slept wherever he could hide and sometimes attended classes.
Serrano was arrested last January and charged with trespassing.

Headmistress Maria del Rosario Gomez told Televisa news it was the third time the school had been vandalized, and said
Hurricane bashes Mexico resorts, heads for US border
Hurricane Emily slammed into the Yucatan Peninsula on Monday, smashing hotels and homes in the main resort areas and halting all of Mexico's oil exports before heading back to sea for a new strike toward the U.S. border.
Tens of thousands of locals and tourists along the popular "Maya Riviera" coastline of white beaches and blue-green seas rode out winds of 135 mph (215 kph) and torrential rain in makeshift shelters.
Several people died in Mexico in incidents indirectly caused by the powerful storm, which killed at least four in Jamaica.
