NC: 24 Illegal Alien Members of Raleigh Church Face Deportation After Traffic Stop

NC: 24 Illegal Alien Members of Raleigh Church Face Deportation After Traffic Stop... More than two dozen members of a Raleigh church are facing deportation after a traffic stop in Louisiana based on what their supporters say was illegal racial profiling rather than reasonable suspicion...The church members and their supporters contend they were pulled over simply because they're Latino, and that after being detained they were subjected to ridicule by federal agents. The group also says its members were denied their legal rights to make phone calls or contact lawyers during detention...The incident occurred early in the morning of April 15, 2010, when three vans and several private vehicles from Buen Pastor were returning to North Carolina from a religious ceremony in Houston. Buen Pastor, an Evangelical Protestant church, regards the "Santa Cena," or holy supper, as the most important religious event of the year.
