The Lindmeier family came to the United States in late 1993. After a medical emergency prevented their timely move to Australia, they overstayed their permitted stays in the U.S. Here six of the Lindmeier children are seen in Hawaii, where they stayed for several years while trying to work out their immigration status. Eventually they moved to Pahrump, Nev., and were deported in 2011.
