Because she’s not a citizen, and she has a visa violation. She actually did something unlawful. You can’t cancel your travel visa and then go oh wait I’m just going to travel anyway.
They’re not even letting most people renew work visas right now.
They should have either expedited her case and made a call right there or sent her to New Zealand.
This is NOT “playing out like it would for decades.” Previously you’d be out on bail or released on your own recognizance. Trump’s administration has changed all that and requiring people to be imprisoned for weeks to months. This doesn’t benefit the taxpayer and is keeping visitors away, and damaging our own economy and costing us allies.

Should have but didn’t. That’s the objectionable part.
It would have been nice if they would have done it but there’s not any legal requirement right.
Other than the rather shitty long wait for the hearing, this is playing out about like it would for decades.

Tell me, How about bail be set? Perhaps some kind of hearing?
What is legal and what is ethical are not always the same.
Very true
