    1-Month-Old Abandoned By Parents On A Colorado Roadside Had Cocaine His System, Family Says

    The 1-month-old baby, who was abandoned on a Colorado street by his own parents on Christmas Day, had cocaine in his system, per relatives. Adams County officials received a call around 9:20 a.m. Wednesday about a baby left in a car seat wearing only a diaper on Pecos Street’s median, a busy road near US Highway 36, per Fox 31. The child’s parents, 42-year-old Jarvis Sims, and 33-year-old Christina Thurman were apprehended that night and charged with felony child abuse, per the New York Post. 

    Thurman’s distraught family revealed that infant Xion, who had cocaine in his system, was abandoned on the road following a dispute between his parents that morning. 

    Thurman’s cousin, Destiny Aguirre, and Xion’s godmother, said,

    “We were so ready for this baby to have his first Christmas, the greatest Christmas … That’s what the first Christmas is, the greatest time. We didn’t even get that, it got stolen from us.” 

    “What if he would have died? You’re going to leave him in the middle of the street and then what? So he could die a slow death in the cold? That is not right,”

    she went on to say. 

    Aguirre mentioned she lives just about 10 blocks from Thurman. Xion is now with Child Protective Services and is luckily, expected to recover. Thurman’s mother stated they’re

    “doing everything to regain custody of the baby.”

  • Mexico Tests Cellphone App That Allows Migrants To Send Alert If They Believe They’re About To Be Detained

    Mexico Tests Cellphone App That Allows Migrants To Send Alert If They Believe They’re About To Be Detained

    In response to Trump’s mass deportation threats, Mexico is working on a mobile app for migrants to alert relatives and consulates if they believe they’re about to be apprehended by the U.S. immigration department, says senior official, according to the Associated Press. 

    Juan Ramón de la Fuente, Mexico’s foreign affairs secretary, mentioned the app is undergoing

    “small-scale testing”

    and works well. It lets users send alert notifications to selected relatives and the closest Mexican consulate, serving as a panic button.

    He went on to say,

    “In case you find yourself in a situation where detention is imminent, you push the alert button, and that sends a signal to the nearest consulate.” 

    U.S. officials must notify consulates when detaining foreign citizens. Mexico increased consular staff and legal aid to assist migrants who are facing deportation. De la Fuente anticipates the app’s release in January but didn’t confirm if it includes a deactivation feature for false alerts.

    The government has established a 24-hour call center to assist migrants with questions and concerns.
