Judge demands answers on whether 2-year-old U.S. citizen was deported to Honduras

A federal judge says a 2-year-old Louisiana girl and U.S. citizen may have been deported to Honduras this week with her mother and 11-year-old sister without due process, according to court documents obtained by CBS News.
In an order Friday, Judge Terry Doughty for the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana wrote there was a "strong suspicion that the Government just deported a U.S. citizen with no meaningful process."
When Doughty sought Friday afternoon to arrange a phone call with the mother of the girl, identified in court documents as "V.M.L.," Justice Department lawyers informed him that "a call" with the child's mother "would not be possible because she (and presumably VML) had just been released in Honduras."
