DOJ to Denaturalize Mexican, Colombian and Nigerian Child Molesters - Daniel Greenfield

by Daniel Greenfield

Obama and Clinton judicial activists have shown a willingness to ignore precedent for the sake of the #resistance.

Denaturalization is a basic tool. Unfortunately it's used all too rarely to remove the citizenship of people who should never have had it in the first place. Obama Inc. weaponized it, as it did everything else. But Attorney General Sessions is denaturalizing child molesters who failed to disclose their convictions.

The Department of Justice on Tuesday filed lawsuits to revoke the U.S. citizenship of five immigrants who pleaded guilty to sexually abusing minors in incidents determined to have taken place before they became naturalized, Fox News has learned.
“Committing fraud in any immigration matter undermines the integrity of our immigration system, and is a betrayal of the American people’s generosity,” Attorney General Jeff Sessions said in a statement. “It is especially appalling when it also involves the sexual abuse of children.”
Jorge Luis Alvarado, 56, a native of Mexico. Alvarado became a citizen on March 9, 2000 and pleaded guilty in 2007 to committing indecency with a child by sexual contact. The DOJ says it took place shortly before filing his naturalization application.
Alberto Mario Beleno, 64, a native of Colombia. Beleno became a citizen on Feb. 26, 2001. He pleaded guilty that year to the molestation of a minor in 1993 and 1994.
Eleazar Corral Valenzuela, 49, a native of Mexico. Valenzuela became a citizen on June 15, 2000. The Justice Department said he sexually abused a minor child before he applied for naturalization and pleaded guilty to the charge in 2000.
Moises Herrera-Gonzalez, 55, a native of Mexico. Herrera-Gonzalez became a citizen on Sept. 25, 1999. He pleaded guilty in 2002 of sexually assaulting a six-year-old child in 1996.
Emmanuel Olugbenga Omopariola, 60, a native of Nigeria. Omopariola became a citizen on July 1, 2004. He pleaded guilty in 2015 to unlawful sexual contact with a seven-year-old child before he was naturalized.

Judicial activism has blocked certain traditional uses of denaturalization, for example against Islamic terrorists, and while the DOJ is on safe legal ground here, Obama and Clinton judicial activists have shown a willingness to ignore precedent for the sake of the #resistance. Still, Sessions is betting that few of them will want to protect child molesters. So these make useful test cases.
