Fullerton Girl Is Home in O.C.; Mom Still in Mexico

A 12-year-old Fullerton girl allegedly kidnapped by her mother's former boyfriend is back in Orange County, but her mother has been required to remain in Mexico after going there to rescue her, authorities said Monday.
Diana Karen Gama was in protective custody at Orangewood Children's Home in Orange following the nearly monthlong ordeal that began Nov. 23 when her mother's estranged boyfriend, Hermillo Ocampo Morales, allegedly kidnapped the girl after she'd been dropped off at school.
Family members brought the girl back, Fullerton police said. Her mother, however, is still in Mexico.
Guillermina Salmeron, 33, ignored advice from Fullerton police not to travel to Mexico to find Diana. According to Fullerton Police Sgt. Don Hughes, it was the department's understanding "that she was not here legally."
"We were worried, knowing immigration officials would not allow" her to come back because she was not a U.S. citizen, said Sgt. Linda King, a department spokeswoman. "We advised her to give us more time to work through our official government channels or protocol to secure the return of her daughter."
Salmeron apparently made the trip anyway following a tip that the girl had been seen with Morales in the state of Guerrero. And, as Fullerton police anticipated, she has not been allowed back into California. Salmeron is trying to get a temporary visa, King said.
"We understand the emotions involved," she said. "First and foremost she is a mom, and her daughter was down there. We're just grateful everything seemed to work out well."
Fullerton police are working with Mexican authorities to secure the arrest and extradition of Morales on a variety of charges including kidnapping, King said.Support our FIGHT AGAINST illegal immigration & Amnesty by joining our E-mail Alerts at http://eepurl.com/cktGTn

The mother of the 12 year old should NEVER be allowed to cross the border into the US again. She has come as an illegal at least once and one crime is one too many. If it turns out that the 12 year old is an anchor baby then she should be sent wherever her mother is. If she is an illegal, she should never have been brought back to this country but reunited with her mother wherever her mother is.
