uh, what? what was the lead up to this?

Few hours walking around in a border town and eating lunch from what I recall. When I crossed back there were a whole team of people working me over and HSI got involved. No idea what triggered them. When they found nothing they sent the debt collectors chasing me for the hospital bill, obviously that won't be paid so I look forward to the lawsuit.

edit: to note I don't know If I'm actually going to be sued, just will definitely find it humorous if they do so.

I would guess that the very temporary nature of your trip looked like you were just there to collect something and come right back. None of which justifies the subsequent outcome. Good luck in your lawsuit.

This almost sounds like a combo of bad profiling software that flagged you and then parallel construction using the dog as cover.

If you have the time and all, definitely start throwing lawsuits and hit hard in discovery.

How is the hospital bill your responsibility in this situation? That’s crazy pants and just evil

>How is the hospital bill your responsibility in this situation?

Exactly but on the other hand, if not his responsibility, could acting suspicious be a free GI check hack? Health coverage can be expensive in the US.

Hack methodology:

1. Sprinkle tiny amount of drugs on yourself

2. Go to border

3. Free GI check

4. Profit?
