what can they charge you with
2007-06-06 03:01:42 · update #1
you are under the laws and jurisdiction of the u.s.a. - no matter what.
as to repercussions - you could be charged with a felony and if found guilty find yourself deported.
now bear in mind that would mean your country of origin an not canada.
so is it worth it? probably not.

You have two problems.
One is whatever trouble anyone can get into for giving bad information to the judicial system ... jail, fine, whatever.
Two is that you are an alien in trouble with the law, for whatever reason ... you could get deported as an undesirable alien, and refused readmission ... this record might also be bad for you in Canada ... can you get a good job later on when on your record is that you were kicked out of America for criminal actions?
You need to get with the DA and repair your statements PDQ.

They can charge you with obstructing justice if you are preventing the district attorney from finding out the truth about a crime you or someone you know committed. Tell the truth or go back to your own country!

shown (from Brass CheckTV): Katherine Russell (alleged bomber's spouse) is granddaughter of Richard Warren Russell, cranium and Bones member and entrepreneur in the means marketplace. Russell's obituary lists Warren King Russell II as son - and that's Katherine's emergency room physician father. meaning spouse had relatives spook connections besides as husband Tamerlan (Uncle Rusla). And the two had speedy, dramatic and uncharacteristic conversions to a perverted style of Islam common with the aid of the gangster relatives that runs Saudi Arabia and works hand in hand with our spooks. What does a brilliant twist of fate like this advise? You tell me. All i will do is checklist the stuff no person else looks to have the means to get around to. (effective in-intensity front website article at present Washington submit on the "secret" of Tamerlan that breathes a touch of none of this.)

If you make false statements under oath, then it's perjury. Visitors are subject to US law much in the same way US Visitors are subject to Canadian laws.
Perjury is a felony offense that carries a fine and jail time.

Perjury is Perjury no matter where you are from. They could also charge the person with obstruction of justice. Perjury is one of the worst crimes you can commit.

No. We love it when people from other countries come here and commit perjury. Hey, bring the rest of your family. And a case of Moosehead.

It doesn't matter where you are from, perjury can be construed as obstuction of justice also and they can extradite you back to the states if you try to flee back to Cananda.
