    She intentionally didn’t follow proper process - we have email from her boss telling her to follow proper procedure to bring the biological samples in, she decided not to.

    She then lied to customs multiple times, first by not declaring the samples, then saying she didn’t have them, then a couple other times.

    I’ve dealt with similar issues (not biologics, but other stuff that requires declaration and has a well-established process).

    Something very odd with her behaviour, not sure why someone well-versed in this process would behave like this.

    This has nothing to do with Trump/ICE - she’s behaving strangely and lying all over the place.

      True, but she’s now risking 5 to 8 years of Russian jail time, whereas a fine, or some kind of administrative sanction would have made much more sense.
