Obama uncle deportation [PHOTO/VIDEO], President Obama’s uncle has won a new deportation hearing in Boston
immigration court, more than a year after a drunken-driving arrest in
Framingham revealed that he had violated a longstanding order to return
to Kenya.
Onyango Obama, 68, has lived in the United States for
nearly 50 years. He was arrested in 2011 on suspicion of drunken
driving, at which point his immigration status was revealed. He had
remained in the country despite a court order to leave.
In a
hearing at a Boston immigration court last week, Obama successfully
argued his legal counsel at the time failed to mount an adequate
defense, the Boston Globe said Monday. An anonymous source told the
newspaper Obama's lawyer never filed a legal brief offering his side of
the story before the immigration court issued its deportation order. Go here for more including photo and video.
