A former Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer was convicted on multiple counts of bribery, including accepting money and sex in exchange for work authorization papers.When a population from a corrupt and backward society are brought in wholesale to the nation, massive crime problems are a consequence. And when that corrupt population are brought into government, honesty and integrity in government suffers. Compound that with affirmative action, and the result is an immigration law enforcement agency that is populated by the corrupt population that was brought in and their progeny.The New Jersey man, Arnaldo Echevarria, worked as a deportation officer and committed the offenses between 2012 and 2014, NJ.com reported. He is charged with making false statements to a jury, harboring an undocumented immigrant, and seven counts of bribery. He was indicted last month.
Echevarria, 39, allegedly accepted up to $75,000 in exchange for getting work authorization for people in the country without proper documentation.
