Karen Newton was in America on the trip of a lifetime when she was shackled, transported and held for weeks on end. With tourism to the US under increasing strain, she says, ‘If it can happen to me, it can happen to anyone’
She absolutely had a VALID Visa, and the headline is correct. Just because her husband’s Visa had expired , doesn’t justify locking them both up for 6 weeks.
She was locked up with a valid Visa.
Also the story about the Koreans that were arrested, when they were there preparing workers to work on a factory Hyundai was making, creating thousands of jobs, show that you are in no way safe as a foreigner coming to work in USA. You are actually more vulnerable, as they may disregard that foreigners working there are actually there legally.
She did but her husband did not. Detaining her for traveling with him is nuts. Detaining him for that is also nuts but another story. The point being: there were “irregularities” involved. I am not saying it’s not insane but also not completely random.
Just dont. This is that ‘probable cause’ bullshit all over again. It’s like saying, “well, he did have a habit of looking out of windows. Maybe he was just standing there and lost his balance.” I think we’ve seen enough to not believe a single thing that comes out of that failed nation.

I know exactly how stupid that phrase sounds :/
Get out of here with your non-manichean views!
It’s as random as arresting the next in line.
