Nah...it isn't like that. Not trying to correct you, but...kid/mother made it to the US legally... (U.S. has a wet foot/dry foot policy with Cubans. We have no such policy with Mexico). Mother was deemed unfit by Child Protective Services due to drug use. Kid was pulled from mom's custody and put up for adoption. Adopted by a nice upper-middle class family.
Now, the father (in Cuba), decides he wants kid back. He is granted a visa to the U.S. to testify in court. After two weeks of testimony, judge deems him a fit parent. Next hearing is whether or not the adopted parents have to give the kid up. If the court gives the kid to the father, he will return to Cuba with child.
That's it in a nutshell.
