Sara followed steps to legally migrate to the United States and does not have a criminal record. The Colombian national was in the midst of obtaining her permanent residency, a lengthy process.

Most undocumented immigrants are not eligible to adjust their status to become permanent residents while physically present in the U.S.
General Challenges:

Entry without Inspection:
If an undocumented immigrant entered the U.S. without proper inspection and authorization (e.g., sneaking across the border), they are generally barred from adjusting their status while remaining in the country.

Unlawful Presence:
Staying in the U.S. without legal status for more than 180 days triggers a bar from re-entering the country for a period of time (3 or 10 years).

What was her exemption?

The answer to “was she a citizen” is complex. She was in the process of becoming a citizen.

You have no evidence that she was in the "process" of anything. Just the following snippet from the article, that says she was in the "midst" of obtaining her permanent residency.


"The Colombian national was in the midst of obtaining her permanent residency, a lengthy process."

She's been here a decade or more, flouting our laws.

That doesn't tell me if she is here legally or not. I bought a gym membership. I am still a fat a-hole that didn't follow through.

Is she Maryland Father or not?


That said I am all for keeping any latina pending weight limit framework Trump sets up

It’s hard to trust these stories without knowing more.


They tried to blame all of us and South Carolina on a woman’s death because of some made up abortion ban SC doesn’t have.

And the girl died from taking the abortion pill.

And it’s also more likely a liberal is writing these.They outnumber us there.



Here is a good example of them twisting things.

It’s only for illegal immigrants.

But they want you to think he’s cutting it for all immigrants.

Extremely presumptuous. And you would be wrong.

Do you really believe it’s one in ten million? Some Canadian MAGA woman was detained last week as well. ICE frequents immigration court hearings. These stories are common, just not posted here.

If she was that intelligent why didn’t she take care of her citizenship?

Funny they hit a home for an entirely different person. I wonder why that is? Stands to reason a family member(maybe dad or cousin) was there or they were harboring someone else who isn’t a citizen. I don’t see you crying for the mother, who was also taken. I guess mom isn’t accomplished enough. If people want to be mad, be mad at her parents for setting her up for failure. Law sucks sometimes but it is the great teacher when it’s enforced.

1 in 20 million, is more accurate.


Thanks for your concern.

Just because it says she was in the "midst" of it, doesn't mean she really was. It just means she told the reporter that she was super serious about getting it taken care of and was going to get right on that as soon as possible.

It's code for doing nothing. You generally cannot get permanent residency while you are here illegally. It can happen, but extremely rare.
