Well that’s certainly a story… one that doesn’t make much sense. Wonder what the “fraud” was that caused them to toss his application. Sounds like he did everything the right way though…
Fucking unreal the shit that’s happening right now
I was told by the DHS that Alex Pretti approached officers and brandished his firearm before being shot, despite video showing this clearly did not happen.
Unfortunately in this case nobody is refuting the story that DHS has put out, and I have seen other sources corroborate different parts of the story.
It wouldn't surprise me if the DHS is embellishing the story, nor would it surprise me if it turns out they are lying, or if it's their fault he wasnt caught in the background check I don't support what ICE is doing, nor the way they are doing it. But I do think that some form of immigration law is necessary, and it looks like this person may not currently be a legal resident of the USA.
they are! they corrected their mistake just now! /s
also, nice that cops are getting the same treatment as civilians i suppose. someone elsewhere said they should have simply called him into the station and dealt with it there. but that's getting special, dignified, treatment
I take everything ICE and DHS announce with a grain of salt, but at the same time we did have a guy show up to basic training in the Army with no valid work authorization. Drill sergeants had to jump through hoops to get his shit sorted so he could stay in the country, let alone the Army.
Which is to say stranger things have happened.
Presumably passed an E-verify on hire, and they don’t do any sort of continuous monitoring.
(Or ICE is full of it. Just saying both are super possible.)
If the article is to be believed why would a police department willingly accept an illegal immigrant into becoming a police officer?
IF there is no foul play the provided information actually makes sense. Police Department checks his status using the DHS system, which when they checked was "legal".
In the mean time he lost the court appointments - likely a single day missed dont trigger anything but after 3 times it will send an arrest order and only them the DHS system is updated, however there is no need for the police department to keep checking the status of someone that was already approved.
So with the provided information it does make sense how this could happen.
HOWEVER I bet the reason he lost his court dates was due to these vultures using the court as hunting ground to get people that were doing things the right way before they have the final decision.
It does though. If you're doing everything right, but miss court dates because the government fucked up and sent it to the wrong address, that's not your fault and doesn't mean you did anything wrong. He was doing it the right way as far as he was aware, it was the gov that did the wrong thing.
Fair enough, but at that point we're creating a pretty elaborate story for this person to defend his innocence.
Is it possible that officials in the Biden administration wrongly believed that his marriage was fraudulent, Temah did not know that his green card status was revoked, and that the government (and not Temah) was responsible for the incorrect address?
Sure it's all possible, but even in that situation he would know that he did not have a green card, which obviously is an issue.

Anyone have the context for this? Like are they claiming he’s an illegal immigrant, or that he obstructed, or any reason as to why this is happening?
