You can piece it together. The article conveniently leaves out exactly where she was staying for the months between visa revocation and re-entering the US.

> Presumably she wasn't in the US or she wouldn't have been trying to enter the US from Mexico.

She was likely doing what many folks do: cross the border briefly for the explicit purpose of getting documents refreshed. This is common and expected in many cases, but she was without a visa for months at this point. And she likely crossed from Mexico because it is close to where she was previously living. Again, this is common.

The fact that she didn't cross back over from her home country of Canada immediately sets off alarm bells.
