She was transported to a facility in Louisiana for deportation hearings.
Leeds Police Chief Paul Irwin stated that detectives observed Hernandez-Martinez driving over 80 miles per hour on Interstate 20 and claimed her vehicle "came within feet of striking other vehicles and erratically changes lanes."

Momma likes it.
Do you mean the daily Winston Cup commute?
More like the national Demolition Derby
So pretty much every thing we have heard from her family and friends is a total lie
Any immigrant who advocates for more immigration should be deported.
The ICE - Live At Leeds
No driver’s license nor likely any insurance. Glad no one was killed or injured, nor their property damaged.
What NGO was funding her?
Y no hastaluego
When the cop is back in the car, it kind of sounds like the K9 in the back is saying “dude, woof, woof, sniff, I smell a lack of documentation for entry...”
WAS SHE INSURED?
ANOTHER REASON WHY MY UNINSURED MOTORIST INSURANCE ON MY TRUCK ==48.8 % OF THE PREMIUM.
I DROVE THAT TRUCK LESS THAN 2000 miles in last 2 years...BUT I OWN MY PROPERTY & CANNOT RISK A LAWSUIT OR LOSS OF MY TRUCK
Sounds like her family may not be citizens either?
