Armando Corona, a police officer in Los Angeles, was told during divorce proceedings that he could not take his two children to see his grandmother in Mexico — even though his ex-wife gave her approval.
A divorced couple had an agreement allowing the father to visit his ailing grandmother in Veracruz, Mexico with their children. They were shocked by a judge's ruling that cited a recent attack on a family far to the country's north.
That's one of the stories we're featuring today on NBCLA.
Judge's Ruling Surprises Family Planning Visit to Mexico Everything seemed ready for Armando Corona, a Marine and LAPD officer, to take his two young children to visit his ailing grandmother in Mexico. The Christmas trip was part of an agreement that he and his ex-wife had brought to the Family Law Court in Riverside during their divorce proceedings. They were shocked by the judge's ruling.
The judge said Mexico is too dangerous for the kids' father to take them to visit. Patrick Healy reports for the NBC4 News at 4 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 16, 2020.
