when the story broke it was all "come come, look at the violence inherent in the system, help help I'm being repressed!"  Then it was "yeah, well, I'm sure there are perfectly good reasons for those very good questions".  A third link, with video!.

UK family on vacation in Canada tries to visit the US but are turned away at the border.  Later than night, they happen to be driving on a road (link to location at Google Street View) that parallels a US road with just a skinny (but deep) ditch between the roads.  When, what do you know, an "animal" is suddenly in the road and they have to drive around it, into the US, (video of this is in the third link above) where they are stopped by US border officials.  They try to give them back to Canada, but what do you know, Canada doesn't want them.  So they sat in jail (with a 3 yo, won't someone think of the children!) for a week before being put on a plane back to the UK.  Did I mention they had 14 thousand in US dollars?
