Summary
German tattoo artist Jessica Brösche, 26, is indefinitely detained by ICE after being denied entry at the San Diego border from Tijuana.
Despite possessing a valid German passport, visa waiver, and return ticket to Berlin, she underwent secondary inspection and spent days in detention, including eight in solitary confinement.
Accused of planning to violate the terms of the visa waiver by working in Los Angeles as a tattoo artist, her ordeal is described as "like a horror movie.”
Brösche‘s friend Amelia Lofving was finally able to track her down and visited after 25 days.
Sorry but that’s just kinda how the word America is used in English. It probably shouldn’t be, but it is.
It happens. I think they were trying to point out you could go to Canada or Mexico in North America or a bunch of nice countries in South America. Personally if I had the time I’d like to see Columbia. I’ve heard great things about it
