U.S. to deport Canadian accused of assaulting teen wearing Trump clothing

Kaitlyn Tracey pleaded guilty to misdemeanor simple assault after video showed her striking a teen, and a Texas judge ordered her deported to Canada.

  • On Tuesday, a Texas immigration judge ordered Canadian national Kaitlyn Tracey to be deported following her guilty plea to misdemeanor simple assault in New Jersey.
  • Tracey entered the United States on April 14, 2024, on a visa expiring September 6, 2024, but remained in the country illegally, prompting the Department of Homeland Security to arrest her for an incident in Point Pleasant Beach.
  • Judge Guy P. Ryan sentenced Tracey to one day in jail, granting time served, while defense attorney Hodgson argued she "maintained employment" and accepted responsibility for her role in the incident.
  • Following her arrest by Point Pleasant Beach Police, Tracey was transferred into Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody as the Department of Homeland Security stated she "has no business being in our country."
  • The case underscores federal enforcement of visa overstays, as Tracey's removal concludes the legal matter tied to the Point Pleasant Beach incident and her immigration violations.
