[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Well, just saying - it would be really easy for her ex husband to make a statement that they aren't related.  Just a thought.

Also - and you must understand it's not a quip against her - but in this community, it WAS common to bring family members into the country who weren't who they said they were.  Records keeping was never Somali's strong suit to begin with, and people wanted to get away from a dangerous, dead end country.  So it was common that a brother, say, who got a refugee visa to the US took his sister's children with him and said they were his. Who was there to say differently? I don't even fault the guy for that.

Again, I am not saying that this is what happened. I am saying that this sort of thing is not uncommon in the community from which she hails. [/quote]

I believe her ex-husband has said that and certainly she has. The allegation that she married her brother supposes that a sham marriage was arranged to enable her brother's immigration. Yet he was already a British citizen and would not desperately need to immigrate to the US. Moreover, there is no indication that he ever applied for a green card which, as her spouse, he could have done. Why would he not have done the one thing that the alleged sham marriage was supposed to have achieved?

I don't think there was ever a public statement from her ex, if you saw one, please post a link.

I haven't seen any commentary on his immigration status either, and to be completely honest, I don't know that this sort of info is available on demand to all and sundry.  I personally am more sketched out by the fact that they all seemed to live together, and that he was still in Minnesota while she swore she has no idea where he is. [/quote]
