It's Always a Hoax

A Skokie woman made headlines this week after her family and a local
politician claimed the U.S. Department of Homeland Security detained her
for nearly 48 hours before she ultimately ended up in Wisconsin — an
extraordinary story disputed by accounts from the federal government,
two sheriff’s departments and her purported employer. 

Summer Sundas “Sunny” Naqvi’s family alleges the 28-year-old woman was
taken into custody Thursday morning at O’Hare International Airport
after arriving on a flight from Istanbul. Naqvi, whom Cook County
records show was born in Evanston, allegedly told her family that she
was detained at the airport and then taken to Immigration and Customs
Enforcement centers in two different states. 

Cook County Commissioner Kevin Morrison, a family friend, told the
Tribune that Naqvi was sent to an ICE facility in west suburban
Broadview and, later, a Wisconsin jail that frequently houses
Chicago-area detainees before she was released.

But in a statement Monday, a U.S. Customs and Border Protection
spokesperson said that Naqvi had only been directed through additional
security screening upon arriving at the Chicago airport Thursday and was
cleared to leave. She “departed CBP” of her own volition less than two
hours after landing, the statement said. 

“The passenger’s claims are blatantly false,” said Harry Fones,
principal deputy assistant secretary for public affairs for the
Department of Homeland Security. “Ms. Naqvi departed CBP within 90
minutes of her arrival to the United States. Ms. Naqvi was not taken
into custody or transferred to ICE for detention.” 

In a social media post Wednesday evening, DHS shared two still images to
bolster their account of Naqvi’s interaction with O’Hare immigration in
a so-called secondary inspection room. The first, marked March 5 at
10:46 a.m., showed a young woman with black hair in a fluorescent-lit
area lined with benches. The second, stamped 11:42 a.m., shows a figure
with similarly dark hair facing away from the cameras and going through
a door marked EXIT.

I have a piece coming out on this story, which was always as credible as
Jussie Smollett's, but the media ate it up.
