Two German travelers were detained and deported from Hawaii after their loosely planned trip raised suspicions of potential illegal work intentions. The pair, Charlotte Pohl and Maria Lepere, had obtained ESTA travel authorization but had not booked any accommodation for their five-week stay in Hawaii. They were accused of potential illegal work intentions, strip searched, and placed in a deportation detention center. The following morning, they were deported to Japan as requested. This incident highlights the need for travelers to have proper planning and documentation when visiting the United States.
