About bloody time. Systemic bs at its finest.
Free her! This is ridiculous, she had a green card. So messed up.
Let me guess, she didn't have the right paperwork. There's always more to the story.
victim blaming. She had a green card, mate. Read the article.
welcome home Everlee. what a nightmare
Immigration systems are a joke everywhere. Hope she gets proper compensation.
Question is, who's paying for her legal fees? Probably us taxpayers.

Wonder what the actual reason was. ICE doesn't just grab green card holders for no reason.
it. ICE is known for overreach. Don't make excuses for them.
A green card is a big deal. She wouldn't risk it for no reason.
Good outcome but ffs why did it take so long? Three months of her life gone.
That's exactly it. The system failed her.
Imagine being detained for a paperwork issue. Stress levels through the roof. Glad she's out.
nah get stuffed. I'm saying there's two sides.
