Bribery in the immigration court
Quelle surprise.
Ohio immigration courts may be subject to bribery:
At the center of the operation is Patricia Golder, who, according to the footage, has turned the alleged manipulation of the asylum process into her business. Golder says she takes a portion of the pay given to the Mauritanian migrants in exchange for helping them navigate the system, and she claims she can bribe judges to rule in the migrants’ favor. The footage also suggests that many of the migrants involved neither embrace nor intend to adopt core American values, even as they access public resources designed to protect legitimate asylum seekers. …
“You get the lawyer and you say, ‘Okay, we have this sheet of paper. I need you to ask the judge how much to carry these people two more year in this country? Probably until we get this project done.’ He say, ‘Okay, give me $50,000.'”
That $50,000 will get split up between everybody, Golder says.
I have long assumed this sort of thing goes on, plus lesser forms of deception and gaming the system. I really don’t see how it could be otherwise, and not just in Ohio by any means.
A great many articles discussing this mention that bribery is standard operating procedure in many parts of the world. So of course immigrants from such countries will consider it both necessary and noncontroversial. And that’s where we are.
It’s not as though it’s limited to immigrants, however. When the subject of political bribery comes up, I often think of this song from the long-ago (and not often revived) musical Fiorello!, which I sas as a child. Here’s the musical number; enjoy:
One can only imagine how bad it must be in Minnesota.
You’re right about the prevalence of bribery in some cultures. When they come here, they bring their cultures with them.
One perhaps salient detail is left out in the article. The official name of Mauritania is The ISLAMIC Republic of Mauritania.
We have enough non-assimilating Muslims causing trouble here already.
Lying to the judge probably comes under the heading of taqiyyah.
“We have enough non-assimilating Muslims causing trouble here already.”
Couldn’t agree more, Buddhaha.
We really must keep hold of the WH & Congress for the foreseeable future … squared!
Else, America will flooded with more haters & 3rd-world takers.
Thinking of the chants of “Death to America” — eg, Iranians & gazans.
How many of them mean it, versus must say it to stay alive?
And how do you vet them for that??
I do not want to let them come here and test our vetting nor their honor.
Many leftists would gladly import them, just to cut down on all the “white privileged extremism”.
On the matter of unethical judges:
Considering the black robe activism we’ve seen, I bet many immigration judges don’t need bribes to rule as an “open border leftist” hopes.
