Email to Massachusetts lawyer warned her to ‘depart the US immediately’ even though removing US citizens is illegal

A Massachusetts immigration lawyer who is a US-born American citizen is speaking out after she received an email from Trump administration immigration authorities telling her she needed to leave the country.

Nicole Micheroni described receiving an email on 11 April – and that its heading was “notice of termination of parole”.

“It is time for you to leave the United States,” the email read. “If you do not depart the United States immediately you will be subject to potential law enforcement actions that will result in your removal from the United States.”

Micheroni told NBC Boston: “At first I thought it was for a client, but I looked really closely and the only name on the email was mine.

    Worth noting the detail in the article that she may have received it because her name/email was on paperwork for clients.

    Now, one could say somebody moving quick just made a mistake, but I think you might also imagine here that they’re running huge tranches of paperwork through a RAG LLM, and this is the kind of outcome we can look forward to going forward. You get black bagged to El Salvador to become a slave because GrokAIFed fucked up.
