Romero House: North Korea

Mary Jo Leddy Dept: It is their last known destination in an odds-defying journey that began in North Korea, one of the most isolated and brutal regimes in the world and the country from which the siblings escaped, according to The Star. We were extremely upset when we couldn t find them, said Mary Jo Leddy, founder of Romero House. We were concerned about what to do and very concerned about the younger girl and in late January, a 13-year-old girl and her older brother arrived at Romero House, a refugee centre in Toronto s west end. They were supposed to live at Romero House for a year, but vanished after just one week. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
