So it seems obvious that she had posted with her friend about working without a visa in the US, CBP found this, and she was rightfully deported. Note neither women featured in this little writeup actually denied it. These days they do check your social media for little secret plans.

If that was the case they seem to have known at the border and like every episode of border patrol they should just have denied entry. Instead they are wasting thousands of tax payer money. They also did not put her on the plane for which she already had a ticket.

What is the plan here? To send her to Guantanamo?

It seems obvious from what? Is there another source you have that supports this supposition? I'm not disagreeing. I'm just asking
Serious journalism gives the accused a chance to respond. Serious sympathy articles confront the subjects with the core accusations brought against them.

Needless to say, this doesn't clear the bar.

Neither of the women even deny the accusations..

Rightfully = Solitary detention for 9 days... without a set date for said deportation 20 days later, making it an indefinite detention?

Seems like the USA has very low standards for what's "right" these days.

Did I miss that in the article, or did you just make it up?
