AI6YR BenBBC: French woman, 86, held by ICE after moving to US to reunite with long-lost love
🧦🍲 natalie 🌧️🌱@ai6yr yikes, that is so unfortunate. The law isn't unclear either: she was married in good faith, and they weren't separated or divorced. Unless her husband hadn't filled in a certain form, and even then, she could self petition. Again, this is an exploitation of the period of time thousands of people enter when their status is in transition. I hope she gets out soon.

Darwin WoodkaWe barely even HAVE a functional government right now, much less a functional immigration process. It is CRIMINAL what we are doing to people and it needs to stop. This woman was very clearly not a danger to anyone.
Laukidh@ai6yr Bet the son reported her.
“Shortly after Billy's death, his son and Marie-Thérèse reportedly entered a dispute over his inheritance.
Billy's son "threatened her, intimidated her, and even went so far as to cut off her water, internet, and electricity," her son told Ouest-France.”
