    Yeah with 5 kids and a disabled husband, this is a case where the inadequacy of welfare made this woman into a criminal.

    ICE is breaking up poor families, with the pretense they did a victim less crime.

      Regardless of the circumstances - if you’re accepted & given the right to stay, you should stay. Even as a criminal.

      There shouldn’t be take-backsies on that.

        She was not a citizen and unless your a citizen you don’t have any right to be in a country. PR status can be taken away.

          They need to take care of their citizens dude. She has 5 kids that need their mom, and her husband. Don’t forget this was for weed, if she was bookkeeping for an illegal dispensary up here she would at worst lose her CPA.
