More than a dozen migrants were dropped off on the doorstep of a California church after being transported to the state via private plane, according to state officials.
The migrants were dropped off at the Diocese of Sacramento on Saturday «with no prior arrangement or care in place» and in possession of documentation purporting to be from the government of the State of Florida, California Attorney General Rob Bonta said in a statement.
The group had been transported from Texas to New Mexico before being flown by private chartered jet to Sacramento, California Gov. Gavin Newsom said in a statement.
Officials are evaluating potential civil action against those who transported or arranged for the transport of «these vulnerable immigrants,» Bonta said, comparing the move to «state-sanctioned kidnapping.
