I’m not sure there wasn’t a sign. She just said that she didn’t see one. I don’t know exactly where she crossed but the stock photo they keep using in media coverage is in the link I posted here:
Jogger Who Accidentally Crossed U.S. Border Detained | Time
I know there are places without signs but I did see an interview with the girl where she said she just didn’t see the sign. “
She says she didn’t see the signs letting her know that she was entering the country.” Pretty harsh especially because it is possible that she is now not allowed to go back to the US, if she would ever even want to.
