Where Is The Father Of Elvira Arellano’s “Citizen Child”?

” Let Mexico deal with its children and, for that matter, their dysfunctional mothers.”

By Joe Guzzardi

One question keeps rolling over in my mind: Where is the father of Saul Arellano?

Maybe I have too much time on my hands. Or perhaps immigration is too much with me.

Whichever is the case, I am obsessed with the mystery that surrounds “Señor X”.

We know only that Elvira Arellano refuses to identify him. But by keeping mum, Arellano prompts a host of theories…none of them flattering.Among the reasons why “Señor X” hasn’t surfaced might be:

*The age-old problem in these nasty unwed parental matters—he may be married. Since Elvira has no affection for him, her already questionable image would further suffer if she revealed that her former lover is a married man.

*Or perhaps Arellano, during her illegal stay in Oregon where Saul was born, had a string of paramours and she therefore cannot with any certainty identify his father.

*Maybe Arellano paid “Señor X” to have sex with her for the express purpose of conceiving an anchor baby—improbable but not impossible given what we know about the value of a U.S. citizen child and about her (lack of) character.

*Or possibly “Señor X” has been bought off by the deep pockets open borders fanatics in exchange for keeping quiet—again far-fetched but not out of the question.

Since Elvira is not the only person in the loop who knows who Saul’s father is, the total silence from all parties is deafening.

Among those who might identify “Señor X” are the people who introduced him to Arellano or those who worked with them. Also included might be eyewitnesses like her neighbors and friends or tavern keepers who served them.

Of course, “Señor X” himself could come forward and own up to his responsibilities as a father.

But since he hasn’t done that over the course of Saul’s eight-year life, “Señor X” is unlikely to have a change of heart now.
