...were in possession of $16,000 in cash at the time of their arrest.

Tourists, even legit ones, don't drive around with that much cash on hand.

Both Canada and Britain refused to take them back? There is something bing the author isn’t telling us.

Yeah that’s an eyebrow raiser. It doesn’t say if it’s Canadian or US cash though. If they had no intent of visiting the US and it was US cash they have some splainin’ to do.

Denied visa entry, 16 k cash, had to practically go 4 wheeling to accidentally enter the US. Sure, we believe them. Lol.

Canada didn’t want them, the U.K. isn’t responding. They had to put them somewhere. Crazy to hear them bitch “we didn’t have clothes.... because they were washing our clothes for us”. Wow.

$16000 in cash, they previously applied and were refused visas, drove across a ditch...

Doesn’t pass the smell test.

Hopefully this story will be a lesson for all other foreign “families on vacation who were refused visas and get lost near the border and “accidentally” cross it...with a hoard of cash.

Maybe a lot for you, but maybe not for them
