Brösche, 26, never made it to LA. She’s been in federal immigration custody since Jan. 25 — the day they tried to cross into the United States through the San Ysidro Port of Entry.
Brösche had her German passport, confirmation of her visa waiver to enter the country, along with a copy of her return ticket back to Berlin, Lofving said. A U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agent pulled Brösche aside for a secondary inspection.
She didn’t know it then, but it would be 25 days before Lofving would see her friend again. Brösche would spend that time in federal detention, where she remains, waiting for a deportation flight back to Berlin.
Not sheer luck, but because she’s german. Germans haven’t been mass migrating to America since the 60s at the latest and her detention is a change from the norm of us mostly only doing this to Latin Americans, Caribbean folks, Middle Easterners, and Africans
So Eastern Europe is not in the list? Just askin
Nope, they aren’t brown enough to be on the list.
I have no idea. We don’t get enough of you for it to be a thing we really talk about
It’s certainly notable because of that, but her Germanity isn’t what led people to finally locate her - what the article outlined was a series of fortunate events.
