She surrendered her passport, without mentioning she had or had access to another one, and was caught planning to leave for Mexico with a one way ticket and no accommodation booked, and then tried to claim it was "for a friend's destination wedding" (which shouldn't even have mattered - the surrender of the passport meant she was forbidden from leaving the country, regardless the reason).
