It's Biden's fault.
Looks like one Hispanic of questionable citizenship moves out and
another moves in.
What are the odds?

Well, both the old tenants and the new tenants were Hispanic. No other obvious similarity that I can see..

Well, I was being partly facetious, but...
Apparently the former tenant(s) were suspected of being undocumented,
and the ICE bloodhounds tracked them to this address.
Meanwhile, the new tenants, also Hispanic, moved in. In neither instance
do we know if the occupants were documented--sure enough, this one says
she is, and could well be, but she'd lend credence to her claim if the
story used her last name as well, because an independent check could
maybe happen. Conversely, not supplying enough information for a more >thorough independent check implies that she has something to hide. Not >certain, of course, but she could have removed even that suspicion.
But this is being treated as a sort of #metoo moment, where we just are >supposed to take the claimant's word, and leave it at that.
The way it has gone for so long is that I take neither party's claim at
face value. I'm left to decide for myself based on what evidence is >supplied--often very little by either party.
My criticism is much less for the lady involved than for the way the
story is breathlessly reported. It is as if the *intent* of the story is >innuendo, and innuendo requires incomplete information. And they sure
gave us that.
