Summary
Jasmine Mooney, a 35-year-old Canadian woman, has been detained in U.S. immigration facilities since March 3 after attempting to enter with an incomplete Trade NAFTA work visa application.
She was initially held at San Ysidro border crossing before being transferred in chains to detention centers in San Diego and Arizona.
Her mother, Alexis Eagles, reports inhumane conditions including overcrowded concrete cells with constant lighting and inadequate facilities.
Business partner BJ McCaslin called the situation a “nightmare” while Global Affairs Canada confirmed they’re aware but unable to intervene in U.S. immigration matters.
Yeah the story of the German girl it happened to around the same time included her talking about a Spanish lad in the cell with her for the same thing.
Not saying it wasn’t reported on in Spain but I didn’t see his case anywhere in the news.
It did happen to an Irish girl too last month. Fortunately we’ve fairly decent relations with the US but unfortunately it didn’t sound like her treatment was any better than this tbh.
