Posted by Governor David Paterson has pardoned an immigrant slated for deportation for having spent time behind bars for crimes he committed as a teenager.
Qing Hong Wu, 29, was officially pardoned on Saturday but he was released from detainment in a New Jersey correctional facility Tuesday night.
Wu, pictured above center, came to the United States when he was five years old.
When he applied to be married to a U.S. citizen several years ago, he disclosed that had been convicted of robbery in 1995 and 1996. He served three years in a reformatory for those crimes.
Wu had earned his GED in the reformatory and went on to get his associate’s degree and had a career in information technology.
According to immigration laws, Wu’s convictions required deportation. As a result, Wu was taken into federal custody, where he remained from November until Tuesday night.
Is this really what’s important in NY governor? What the hell is wrong with this state’s leadership?
With all the jobless, homeless, people unable to pay taxes, THEY have the nerve to worry about salt & sugar intake? WAKE UP!!!!!
Clean this state of ALL illegal aliens & maybe we can find jobs. I am a landlord & had two calls on different days from the same number but different people (needless to say, they had very heavy accents) the amount of people to move in was different. I said I would not allow the place to be turned into a rats nest, and the person said OK and hung up. As badly as I need to rent my two places I WILL NOT allow 15 people to live in a 2 room studio. I would know immediately know as I live on the property myself. DUH!!!!
