No that won't help. Even if he marries a U.S Citizen he is still going to get deported because of his crimes. I suggest he hires an attorney to help him when he gets out of prison since immigration will pick him up when he gets out and will have to go before an immigration judge. He might be able to fight for his green card but it might be hard. Also he might be able to get bonded out while fighting his case. Good Luck

No he can't. Any crime of moral turpitude - which includes theft - makes an alien deportable and excludable. When he's released from prison he will be deported, and he will not be allowed back in, ever.

Nope, he's broke our law and therefore should lose citizenship.

No - he will be deported.
