The Supremes Support Alimony for Alleged Alien Molester in Marriage to a Citizen
By David North on June 2, 2022
The Supreme Court last week let stand a lower court's decision that a Russian alien, once married to an American citizen, was owed alimony and serious legal fees despite a pending charge in state court that the alien had molested the citizen’s granddaughter.
The decision underlined the dangers that citizens face when marrying aliens, and how our courts will, in effect, punish the citizens for making wrong decisions.
Some years ago an Alabama woman, Tatiana Kuznitsnyna, presumably of Russian or Ukrainian descent, married an alien from Russia, Valentin Belevich. Kuznitsnyna and her daughter, Klavdia Thomas, both signed papers with the Department of Homeland Security assuring the government that they would, if need be, support Belevich, so that he would not become an economic burden on the U.S. Apparently, the bride’s own income was not sufficient to make this pledge, so she enlisted her daughter as a co-sponsor. (All of this suggests that the bride was both a grandmother and had a low income, hardly a favorable marital formula, but good enough for Belevich.)
