Lawyers charged with immigration fraud

A lawyer in queens was arrested along with his partner in Queens, New York for immigration fraud. They would lie in the applicants paperwork about their criminal history and stories of persecution. They were doing this between 2012 to 2017 and had around 180 applicants. Last year they were also accused to failure of paying $5 million dollars in MTA surcharges. For the immigration it doesn't stay if it was a scam that they were doing towards immigrants, but it does say that it was for falsifying documents.

Thousands of immigrants could benefit from Supreme Court ruling, lawyers say

A Supreme Court ruling is allowing that some illegal immigrant criminals could be released from jail and not be deported by the trump administration. Some of these offenses include some minor sexual assaults, kidnapping crimes, and burglaries in some states. But other crimes such as rape, murder, and  other violent crimes they can still be deported. The lawyer states that the loopholes in the law need to be closed and fixed so that violent criminals can get the proper punishment. They also state that a lot of immigrants will benefit from the 5-4 ruling because they were unlawfully convicted of crimes and will be able to fight in order for them to stay in the United States. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.washingtonpost.com/amphtml/local/immigration/thousands-of-immigrants-could-benefit-from-supreme-court-ruling-lawyers-say/2018/04/18/f81389a0-4315-11e8-ad8f-27a8c409298b_story.html
