Kaitlyn Tracey, Canadian woman who attacked teen in MAGA, pro Trump and ICE clothing deported after overstaying her visa amid accusations she was a victim of political witch-hunt.
A Canadian woman accused of attacking a teenager dressed in MAGA regalia has been ordered to be deported back to Canada.
An immigration judge in Texas ordered Kaitlyn Tracey deported to Canada on Tuesday, after she allegedly approached a group of teens on New Jersey‘s Point Pleasant boardwalk over the Fourth of July weekend and struck one of the girls, the Department of Homeland Security said.
‘It’s time to get Kaitlyn to her final destination — home,’ DHS shared on X.
What if Canadian woman hadn’t slapped MAGA supporter, would anyone have still cared?
Tracey entered the U.S. on an April 2024 visa and stayed past the Sept. 6, 2024 expiry date.
‘She overstayed her visa and failed to depart,’ a spokesperson told FOX News.
‘She received full due process and was ordered removed on Aug. 4 by an immigration judge to her home country of Canada. ICE will return her home as soon as possible,’ a spokesperson told the outlet on Wednesday.
A probable cause affidavit by law enforcement states that Tracey allegedly slapped the victim across her face and body. The woman later pleaded guilty to assault the nypost reported.
Tracey started yelling at the teen because she was wearing ‘patriotic colored sweatpants with political wording,’ police added, stating that the young woman was wearing sweatpants that read ‘Trump’ and ‘ICE.’
Tracey reportedly took issue with the group’s ‘patriotic colored sweatpants with political wording,‘ police stated.
Deportation politically motivated?
Surveillance footage showed Tracey hitting the teen twice with an open hand, once in the face and once in the body, before fleeing the scene, investigators said.
Tracey was arrested days after the incident and charged with endangering the welfare of a child, simple assault, harassment and obstruction.
‘Under President Trump and Secretary Mullin, ICE is targeting the worst of the worst,’ a DHS spokesperson said. ‘Nearly 70% of ICE arrests are of illegal aliens charged or convicted of a crime in the U.S. Our message is clear: if you come into our country illegally and break our laws, we will find you, we will arrest you, and we will deport you.’
Political witch-hunt?
In an interview with NJ.com in July, Tracey’s husband said she was also assaulted and claimed her arrest was politically motivated.
Matthew Geroni, who is American (and who is banned from entering Canada) said the situation has been blown out of proportion. He alleged his wife was only charged after public pushback because of a video of the incident that was shared online.
Geroni has since further claimed that he and Tracey have received death threats and that conservative groups have attempted to ‘dox’ them by sharing their personal information.
