A little girl shown in a viral photo crying as a U.S Border Patrol agent detained her mother – and used by TIME magazine to symbolize the Trump administration's family separation policy – reportedly was never separated from her mom.
“Welcome to America,” declared a somber TIME cover, which showed the picture of the Honduran child Yanela Sanchez next to a towering President Trump.
TIME called it “an image America could not ignore” and interviewed the photographer, as did other outlets. TIME followed up with another article entirely about the cover and “the story behind” it.

The picture was featured in international coverage of the policy around the world. The New York Daily News also put Sanchez on the cover of its June 16 issue with the headline: “Callous. Soulless. Craven. Trump.”

But multiple outlets interviewed the father of the girl behind the iconic image, and he said he had learned that his two-year-old daughter was detained with her mother at a facility in Texas, and the two were not separated at all. The Honduran government confirmed his version of events to Reuters.
The Washington Post reported that the mother, Sandra Sanchez, had previously been deported in 2013 to Honduras. Her husband told the Post that she left without telling him she was taking Yenela with her and couldn’t contact her. But then he saw the picture on the news.
"You can imagine how I felt when I saw that photo of my daughter. It broke my heart. It's difficult as a father to see that, but I know now that they are not in danger. They are safer now than when they were making that journey to the border," Denis Valera told The Daily Mail.
He also said he did not support his wife’s decision to make the perilous trek to the U.S. and that they have three other children together.
"I didn't support it. I asked her, why? Why would she want to put our little girl through that? But it was her decision at the end of the day."
The confusion and misrepresentation over the family's circumstances came amid a chaotic week in which passions flared over the administration's controversial “zero-tolerance” policy that seeks prosecution for virtually all illegal border crossers. That policy led to family separations, but Trump backed off with an executive order earlier this week allowing families to stay together during proceedings.
He faced bipartisan criticism over the separations, but the outrage reached intense levels on the left.
Activists, lawmakers and journalists have accused the administration of running “internment camps,” while Trump administration officials have had their cell phone numbers revealed online and been chased out of restaurants.
"We must maintain a Strong Southern Border. We cannot allow our Country to be overrun by illegal immigrants as the Democrats tell their phony stories of sadness and grief, hoping it will help them in the elections. Obama and others had the same pictures, and did nothing about it!" Trump tweeted Friday.
Last month, liberals and journalists rushed to share an article featuring pictures of children locked in cages at an Arizona detention center. Many such tweets were quickly deleted or clarified when other users pointed out that the article was from 2014 -- during then-President Barack Obama’s administration.
EMBARRASSMENT FOR NEW YORK TIMES AS TOP EDITOR FALLS FOR OLD PHOTO AMID WEEKEND OF MISLEADING ANTI-TRUMP TWEETS
Others shared a tweet about a “prison bus” that Immigration and Customs officials allegedly used to carry babies. But the bus was used for educational field trips, and the picture was published on April 2016 -- about six months before Trump won the presidency.

The mother was apparently deported once before in 2013 which makes her second entry a felony.
And the father and sisters have been located in Honduras so the child needs to be flown home and the mother held in detention on the felony charge. She left her other children behind but needed one to help her be released into the community. That's how the game is played.
The lefties like to tell the tear jerker stories of how government policies separate children from their mothers, but conveniently say nothing about the many cases like this where our open borders or loose policies facilitate mothers and fathers leaving their other children and family members.

CNN analyst Chris Cillizza wrote an entire article on the TIME cover: "It shows the compassion gap that exists between the Trump administration's 'zero-tolerance' border policy and the real-life people that are affected."

It’s the latest immigration-related misstep by media outlets and reporters.

I for one saw the cover symbolizing Trump as a bully, and yes he's separating kids even if this girl remained with her mom. It's as if you guys have no concept of creative license.
I see. Just figure out what the point is you want to make and then find some fake news to go with it. Got it.
I'm sure the kids went willingly and there was no hugging involved as they were taken.
Creative license? News is supposed to be factual, presenting all of the information in an accurate manner without narrative or emotion and letting the reader/listener make their mind up. That ship has long sailed.
Reminds me of this:
You're probably correct, however I can assure you the ignore function blocks them all.
