Coast Guard Wife Arrested: Expired Visa, Military Housing Security Check Spark Debate
Federal immigration authorities arrested the wife of a Coast Guardsman at the Key West Naval Air Station following a routine security check that flagged her expired work visa. The woman, married to the Coast Guardsman earlier this year, had been marked for removal since approximately 2019. The arrest, conducted by Homeland Security Investigations, occurred after base personnel contacted NCIS, leading to her detention. The Coast Guard confirmed cooperation with federal authorities, emphasizing their commitment to enforcing federal laws. The Navy also stated full cooperation in the matter.
