The article I read a few days ago said that the tattoo artist posted on Instagram advertising their arrival to the US and taking clients. They had done the same with the previous destination on their tour.

If it's true, it seems pretty open and shut, so I'm not really sure why this is popping up on HN now.

It doesn’t seem open and shut at all, why not just deny her entry if they’re so sure at the border? It’s popping up on HN because apparently she’s been detained for over a month… well after her scheduled return flight. why would this ever be necessary?

I don’t know why this is on HN either but even if it is true, why detain for her so long? Why let her in at all? If it’s “open and shut” why hasn’t it been shut? Why is she still here?

Thanks for the info. I agree but as others said not sure why then the policy is to detain and deport if she's at the border. Just deny entry.
