'''Elvira Arellano''' (b. 1975) [[Mexican]] citizen, a thirty-one-year-old woman. She was an illegal immigrant and a fugitive from justice.

Arellano first crossed illegally into the [[United States]] in 1997 and was taken into custody and deported. She returned and lived in [[Oregon]] for three years before moving to [[Chicago]]. Two years later she was arrested at O’Hare Airport. Failing to report to immigration authorities, she sought sanctuary in the Adalberto United Methodist Church in the Humboldt Park area of Chicago’s West Side, with his American son Saul (born in 1999 in the United States).

Arellano is president of an organization called ''United Latino Family'', which lobbies for families that could be split by deportation.

Elvira Arellano was arrested on August 19, 2007 in Los Angeles and repatriated to Mexico.
