If you’ve broken the law, it’s a bad idea to do things that get you noticed, right? If you’re unlawfully present in any country, it’s really a bad idea to do things that forces federal immigration agents to notice you, right?
Whoops!
ICE Arrests Influencer Tatiana Martinez During Live Stream
A Colombian immigrant TikTok influencer was detained by immigration agents after a confrontation outside her Los Angeles residence that unfolded live on social media.
Leidy Tatiana Mafla-Martinez was apprehended by federal authorities while streaming on TikTok from her Tesla on Friday, August 15, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Newsweek that Martinez was arrested because of a prior DUI conviction in Los Angeles. (snip)
Martinez—who entered the U.S. in 2022, according to DHS—posts under the handle @tatianamartinez_02. She has gained attention for documenting ICE operations, sharing “know your rights” guidance, and offering commentary on immigration enforcement. (snip)
Tricia McLaughlin told Newsweek: “On August 15, ICE arrested Leidy Tatiana Mafla-Martinez, a criminal illegal alien from Colombia who was convicted for driving under the influence in Los Angeles. This criminal illegal alien entered the country in 2022 and was RELEASED by the Biden administration. During her arrest, Martinez claimed to experience shortness of breath. She was given proper medical treatment and will be held in ICE custody pending removal proceedings.”
Even I think this was more than just for the DUI. They specifically targeted her, but, hey, she is illegally present, and should have kept a low profile.
Just three years in our great country, and the entitlement that the dummkopf from Delaware instilled in the illegals, that they could just walk in the door and stay, has infected her badly.
