An immigration judge denied the asylum claim of the family of Liam Conejo Ramos on Thursday. He's the 5-year-old boy photographed in a blue bunny hat and a Spider-Man backpack as he was detained with his father earlier this year. A family lawyer said the judge ordered that they be deported to Ecuador. The boy and his father were held at a Texas detention center after being taken into custody in a Minneapolis suburb back in January. A judge ordered them released 10 days later. His case fielded an outcry over the administration's immigration crackdown in Minnesota. The family's lawyers are appealing the ruling.
