I was just saying a few days ago to a friend, I wonder if she will ever travel outside of the US again. The idea or the fear of being imprisoned outside of the US crosses my mind in places like Asia and Latin America, but I never thought about it in regards to western Europe.
I think it will affect her in some ways ongoing to some extent. I think she is likely to be less trusting of people. Hopefully she moves forward with her studies, and decides to not do any drugs or use alcohol. Not only because sometimes people bury their trauma by using, but also because I do think partying might have contributed to her being around not the right people, wrong place wrong time, and some guilt by association. I don’t think she was guilty in the legal sense, I don’t believe she commted the crime, I mean the expression guilt by association in the publics view.
