I thought she flagpoled in Canada, was denied, then tried to overfly the US to Mexico and enter from there. That would raise red flags for me if I was CBP. Once you’re denied entry doing anything other than getting that denial cleared up before going back to the border is silly.
I think that how they treated her was unfair (as is the way that they treat everyone in that situation) but I think she got herself in that situation. The two are not mutually exclusive.
The details in this Guardian article are not clear at all.

This CBC article seems to confirm what you’re saying (according to statements from the woman’s mother). I totally agree with you about the red flags and poor decisions of this woman. And it seems like we’re in agreement on disliking what happened after.
Thanks for chatting it out!
Thank you.
Have a good day.
