Massachusetts Lawyer and Wife Lowkey Detained at Canada Border border patrol sus, no cap 🛂

The Borderline Tea ☕

Okay, so listen up, fam. This lawyer from Massachusetts, Bachir Atallah, and his wife, Jessica Fakhry, were just tryna cross the border back from Canada, right? But then, BAM! They get stopped at the Vermont border and things get real sus real quick.

According to Atallah, they got cuffed and held for like, five and a half hours at a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) station. He's saying the CBP officers were giving them the third degree, searching their car and belongings, but wouldn't spill the tea on why they were being held. Like, what's the motive, bruh?

Atallah claims he was even pressured to sign a form to let them search his phone and email. Sketchy, right? Especially 'cause he's a lawyer and that could mess with his client's confidentiality. Big yikes!

But here's where it gets spicy. The CBP is throwing major shade back. They're saying Atallah's story is straight cap and that their officers were just following protocol. They're even saying the detention was less than four hours, which is a whole lie according to Atallah. Who's telling the truth here?!

And it gets even weirder. A few days later, Atallah gets stopped again at Logan Airport in Boston for a "random" secondary screening. Coincidence? I think not.

Atallah’s sister, Celine, who's also a lawyer, is not having it. She thinks the CBP totally violated his rights and is planning to sue. "This ain't normal, fam," she's basically saying.

On top of all that, Atallah's blood pressure went through the roof during the detention, and he had to get an EKG. They told him to go to the hospital, but he was like, "Nah, I'm good." Talk about a stressful sitch!

The lawyer added he was made to feel like a criminal, and his sister was shocked by CBP's actions and is seeking transparency. This whole thing is messy, and we're waiting to see how it plays out. Stay woke, bestie!
