This guy I know pushed his girlfriend and beat her after being a little tipsy, But she claims she had a bruised face andd a brusied nose and filed a police report. Before they could arrest him in the state of New jersey He fled to GA where his parents stay. His parents and their ffriend came to NJ to pick him up and left for ga. Heis here in the united states with a student visa bu5 is no longer a student, and the rest of his family are not residents neither. So i was wondering what are the consequences and are there any consequneces for his parents and the frien that brang him to ga? Everything in his Nj apartment is still in tact and his apt is still in his name.

his whole family does not have green cards, they are here illegally. A policeman did come to their house and ask for some type of id, and said he would be back. Is it possible if they were to find out they would be deported back to their country of origin?

Answer 1

He can be deported, if there is a warrant and people are helping him hide they can be charged with accessories obstruction of justice etc. And why the hell does it sound like you're excusing his behavior of hitting a women?

Answer 2

Well, you don't know whether anyone else in his family is legal or not. For all you know, they could have applications pending.

If a person is in the US illegally, then the commission of a crime doesn't matter a whole lot, does it? Being illegal is a violation of the law in the first place.
If someone decides to press charges, then the person is first convicted in criminal court, serves his/her time and is then turned over to the immigration authorities and there will be another court proceeding in which they determine whether or not to deport him/her.

Answer 3

Deportation
