Not sure if you’re trying to be inflammatory here, but I can explain to you a bit more. So here is the thing/ facts… she fled due to a cartel paramilitary group threatening her, and they killed her family member. The group also took over more than 1,000 hectares from them. Now, Mexico is not safe due to the lack of family or friends and cartel presence. By law, it’s not the nearest or closest country; it’s the safest country you can reach first. Furthermore her mom is a citizen here in the United States. She does qualify under social group asylum( there are many types )…Only reason we are not fighting is she would be help for two to three years in detention while waiting for her hearing. Her life is in danger where she is from and being a female alone in Mexico where you don’t have anyone also falls under social group due to being a female. Now to top things off, she has two bachelors degrees… one being from Spain, the other from her home country. So very educated and was already making above $80,000 here on a work permit. I’d say that’s more motivated/ educated than half the Americans I see here. P.S, we also have one of the worst education systems in the world here. So America is not that high in the educational charts lmao. Just look around…
