Cincinnati immigration attorney Trisha Chatterjee had a problem. She needed to ask U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement how best to submit paperwork for her clients detained at the Butler County Jail.

Our media partners at the Cincinnati Enquirer say that after days without a response, she finally got through to an ICE officer who said he could give her the phone number for someone who could help.

Chatterjee said the number was for a Columbus-area Taco Bell.

“For the very first time, finally somebody answered me and I was genuinely so excited to have somebody who was going to help us and give us some information,” she told The Enquirer. “So, to get a Taco Bell phone number instead was definitely disheartening.”

Chatterjee shared her story on TikTok, where it has more than 38,000 views.

ICE did not respond to The Enquirer’s emailed questions. Here’s what Chatterjee said happened.

> Chatterjee said the number was for a Columbus-area Taco Bell. <

Ms. Chatterjee probably just wrote the number down wrong.

See? Complicated problems often have simple solutions.
🙂

Anyway, I wonder if Ms. Chatterjee enjoyed her tacos. The article didn’t say.

Why would they expect someone to do the work that lawyers are supposed to do? Google it dummy.

Fake hate crimes against blacks are losing their luster, now it’s onto fake crimes against illegals.

You really can’t hate leftist lawyers enough.

She claims to be an immigration attorney and doesn’t know the ropes? Tells us again how hive mind stupid liberals are that they bite on this hooey.

Skimmed the article, but I didn’t notice when this happened - during Biden or Trump?

When I read numbers to someone over the phone, I speak clearly and distinctly with a slight pause between numbers. Sometimes when they read them back, they got it wrong. I don’t remember the exact statistics, but verbal information has a significant false or poor transmission rate.

Awesome. These illegal alien invader lovers need to get a sense of humor. It’s a lot better than getting hit by a boulder thrown by a retarded Mexican National. This is really funny.

I think that the ambulance chaser lady got a wrong number that wasn’t ICE and the person that answered the phone gave her the Taco Bell’s number.

I am very happy there is an increase on donations. Let them have it and leave my taxes alone

Why? It could be an honest mistake or her mistake!
