Widow's Plight

When a Pepsi truck jumped a median and killed Robert Freeman two years ago, Uncle Sam slapped his widow in shackles and locked her up in a holding cell. Carla Arabella Freeman's only crime was that she was not born in America like her husband was. The red tape driven machinery of US immigration policy deports widows of Ameircans if the surviving spouse isn't a citizen. (WashPost)
