Jones recalls being “super happy” after she received the pardon, confident that the charge was now behind her.For several decades she travelled freely, crossing the U.S. border dozens of times, but in 2013, having recently completed a divorce, Jones acquired a new 10-year passport with her maiden name, the same name she was charged under.
As they waited, Jones began thinking that her son, who was in the bathroom throwing up, must have done something. She began making plans for how to get him home safely. Then the border agents called her name.Article content Jones says she remained in the room for about two and a half hours as the agent requested detailed information about the last 30 years of her life, including her employment history and the names, ages and addresses of her six children. Afterward, she was fingerprinted and had her photos taken.
After much deliberation, Jones was allowed to temporarily enter the U.S. as she had a plane ticket indicating she had to be back in Toronto in two weeks to fly to France, where she was living at the time.“They ended up stapling a piece of paper in there that I had to get in and out of the country in that two-week time period and a big stamp that says ‘Paroled.’ That was my first stamp.”
