WTF??? a 14 year old **American** girl is deported to Bogata and is now in jail there??????

77. She was a 14 year old kid who knew she was in trouble for running away.

In those circumstances would you lie to try to stay away from home?

I am sure deportation to Colombia was the last thing she expected. Juvie, jail, go back home, or some option like that was what she thought. Those are reasonable expectations in a rational world.

But no, because she didn't give her effing real name she gets deported to Colombia? She doesn't even speak Spanish and the fact you can't seem to grasp is that she is FOURTEEN years old.

THIS is how our vaunted justice system works? There's no justice in it.

You better hope that if you are ever picked up by the police that you have every single fact correct and carry whatever documentation THEY deem important.

And don't tell me that they would follow every facet of the law. Some do. It's Russian Roulette not justice!
