Immigration - November 2006

She is here illegally, and by working "under the table", she is a criminal (tax evasion). I think she can stay only if she is made to repay income tax since her illegal arrival in the US in 1999. Where does she get off thinking that she can live tax-free ?

I know this boy who speaks Spanish and I think he is illegal. The problem is, I speak Spanish and my boyfriend does to and my family also speaks Spanish. So who exactly should I report? I am very confused. I do not want to break the law because I am not a criminal. I heard of the phrase "When in doubt, report!" So I want to be a good person, but I am just confused. Can you help me?

How about rising up and doing something about the corrupt people in power, the corrupt police. Mexican people are smart, they have a good work ethic and Mexico has many natural resources. Mexico could have a thriving economy.

I have a contract working in USA for three years, the company that brought me here said I could come and bring my husband with me, but there was a condition I have to arrive first and my husband three months later. Three months after I have arrived,they gave me the papers for my husband get the visa but the American Embassy in Colombia said he couldn't get a visa because he was supposed to ask for the visa the same day I did.
We didn't do so because the company rules were different and they just sent papers for me when I wentot to the embassy to get my visa.
Now I cannot quit my job and my husband is not here.
Could anybody tell me what can I do for helping my husband to get the visa?
I am here completly alone and I am very depressed.

If you have emigrated to the United States and now hold a Green Card, could you give me any advice with regard to how to get a card, i.e. if you were placed via an agency or found an employer in the US that is willing to sponsor applicants for green cards. I am having no luck in finding agencies that specialise in finding sponsorships for Green Cards. I basically just want to find an employer who is willing to sponsor me.
Thanks!

I know that crossing the border without permission is wrong but when people are desperate to provide food for their families they will do anything to survive. Americans are very fortunate and somehow and somewhere have lost their human compassion and have fallen into this souless creatures. I rather have illegals come in and work for their food then provide a bunch of lazy americans with welfare because they feel we should carry them and the generations they are breeding with the same lifestyle. I feel the people with hatred, racism and black hearts are the only people who call them criminals. When people are hungry all reasoning is out the window

MICHAEL GRACZYK
Associated Press

HOUSTON - The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals on Wednesday rejected an appeal from a death row prisoner whose case was among several dozen nationally involving condemned killers who were born in Mexico and whose punishments had been sidetracked after intervention from President Bush.

"We hold that the President has exceeded his constitutional authority by intruding into the independent powers of the judiciary," the court said in a 64-page ruling that included 283 legal footnotes.

Lawyers for condemned murderer Jose Ernesto Medellin had argued his rights were violated when a Houston court tried and sentenced him to death in 1994 for the rape-slayings of two teenage girls.

Specifically, Medellin, who was born in Mexico but who spent most of his life in Texas, contended he was denied legal help under international treaties when he was charged, tried, convicted and condemned for the 1993 slayings of Jennifer Ertman, 14, and Elizabeth Pena, 16, in Houston.

At issue overall was how much weight U.S. courts should give to decisions of the International Court of Justice in The Hague, which ruled the convictions of Medellin and 50 other Mexican-born prisoners violated the 1963 Vienna Convention.

In 1969, the Senate ratified the Vienna Convention, which requires consular access for Americans detained abroad and foreigners arrested in the United States. The Constitution states that U.S. treaties "shall be the supreme law of the land," but does not make clear who interprets them.

In February 2005, Bush unexpectedly ordered new state court hearings for all 51 prisoners, whose cases have stirred tensions with foreign countries over convictions of their citizens in violation of international law.

The Court of Criminal Appeals on Wednesday said the presidential order "cannot be sustained under the express or implied constitutional powers of the President relied on by Medellin and the United States or under any power granted to the President by an act of Congress cited by Medellin and the United States.

"As such, the President has violated the separation of powers doctrine by intruding into the domain of the judiciary."

The decision Wednesday means Medellin, 31, is not entitled to additional review of his international rights claim.

The Supreme Court 18 months ago, citing the presidential order, rejected Medellin's case and those of the 50 other Mexican nationals on death row in the United States and sent them to their respective state courts for review. That ruling avoided the dispute over whether international law is binding on American courts.

In 2004, the New Orleans-based 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals sided with Texas in a ruling that federal relief for Medellin was barred because he did not file objections at his trial.

In their arguments to the Supreme Court, Medellin's attorneys said his court-appointed trial lawyer was suspended from practicing law for ethics violations during the case, and he failed to call any witnesses during the guilt phase of the trial. Lawyers for Mexico said the country would have made sure Medellin had a competent lawyer had it known about the trial in 1994.

Medellin was supported in his appeal by dozens of countries, legal groups and human rights organizations, as well as former American diplomats and the European Union. Much of the international community is opposed to capital punishment and the execution of Mexican nationals in Texas, the nation's most active death penaltly state, is a particularly touchy point.

Medellin, 18 at the time, was one of six members of a fledgling Houston street gang convicted in the slayings of Pena and Ertman, whose bodies were found four days after they failed to return from a friend's house. The pair had been tortured, raped and strangled. They were attacked as they took a shortcut along some railroad tracks and stumbled on the group drinking beer after initiating a new gang member.

One of Medellin's companions, Derrick Sean O'Brien, also 18 at the time of the slayings, was executed earlier this year.

Evidence showed the girls were gang raped for more than an hour, then were kicked and beaten before being strangled by a belt or shoelaces.

Two others, Efrain Perez and Raul Villarreal, had their death sentences commuted to life in prison when the Supreme Court last year barred executions for those who were 17 at the time of their crimes.

Peter Cantu, described by authorities as ringleader of the gang, remains on death row without an execution date. O'Brien, in a confession, said Medellin was at one end of the belt being pulled around Jennifer Ertman's neck as he yanked on the other.

The sixth person convicted was Medellin's brother, Vernancio, who was 14 at the time and received a 40-year prison term.

Lets legalize them and give them the citizenship and call them American CRIMINALS. As you can see, criminals are in all cultures, races and nationalities. But just because you seek a better life you are considered a criminal, then let it be so. I rather be a CRIMINAL and provide a better life for myself and family than a legal citizen in a rage wanting to kill the least infortunate looking for a better life.
