Attorney jailed for ‘large-scale’ immigration fraud on Caribbean immigrants

NEW YORK, CMC – A former immigration attorney has been sentenced to prison for 70 months for 'large-scale' immigration fraud on Caribbean and other immigrants.

Matthew Podolsky, acting United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, said that 70-year-old Kofi Amankwaa was sentenced for immigration fraud in connection with his supervision of a multi-year scheme to file fraudulent immigration documents under the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA).

Podolsky said Amankwaa pleaded guilty before US District Judge Katherine Polk Failla, who imposed the sentence.
 
“Kofi Amankwaa, a former immigration attorney, made a mockery of the US immigration system and VAWA — a law that provides noncitizen victims of domestic abuse a path to lawful permanent residence status — by filing thousands of immigration documents falsely alleging that his clients were victims of abuse by their children or other family members,” Podolsky said.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.
