Oh, I had not heard about this at all. It happened a couple of days ago, and what a development.
This began as a COVID-era fraud case, but what it ended up as should strike fear in the heart of every Somali Learing Center hustler and every Armenian hospice provider.
That naturalized citizenship is not the shield of steel one might have thought it was, or that it used to be back when no one paid attention to such things.
For the year between April 2020 and the next May, 25-year-old Joff Stenn Wroy Philossaint of Fort Lauderdale, FL, had himself a schweet little scheme going with COVID loan applications and all the various businesses he had registered in his name.
He and his partners in crime came into some serious cha-ching, courtesy of those very forgiving loan programs.

...Between April 2020 and May 2021, Philossaint fraudulently obtained COVID-19 relief funds through companies he owned or controlled and by preparing loan applications for others in exchange for kickbacks. The applications contained materially false representations about the applicants’ revenues and payroll.​

In total, Philossaint and his co-conspirators prepared and submitted 40 fraudulent loan applications, obtaining approximately $3.8 million in loan proceeds. Philossaint personally received approximately $549,000 through the scheme in the form of loan proceeds and kickbacks. ​

This is where it gets really interesting. Thanks to a quirk in immigration law, if you are in the middle of criminal activity when you apply for your citizenship, you can also be charged with submitting a fraudulent application.
Haitian-born Philossaint was definitely up to no good in 2020 when he dropped his citizenship application papers, and, when the feds collared him in 2022 for the loans conspiracy charges, guess what else they hung on him?
Philossaint pled out on the conspiracy charges, and a federal jury nailed him on the fraudulent citizenship application.
~Snip~
In 2023, a federal judge sentenced him to 50 months.
That would have been the end of the story in most administrations, but not in this one. In February of this year, the Justice Department petitioned the court for an order revoking Philossaint's citizenship, and it was formally stripped yesterday.

IF YOU LIE, YOU LOSE WHAT YOU UNLAWFULLY GAINED
There's a concept, no?
This isn't the only case they have simmering away, either. The former mayor of North Miami is on the DoJ hotseat, both for fraud he's allegedly committed and for a fraudulent marriage and citizenship application.
They have filed to restore him to Citizen of Haiti status, too.

​

Hiz Dishonor is taking his 'partner/wife #3/what' with him into the immigration fraud ether. It turns out she's a serious visa overstayer as well. Her 'final deportation order' dates back 26 years.
~Snip~
I hope everyone with those papers running a scam is poopin' their drawers when they hear about this.
That citizenship is a precious gift, not a shield for grift.
What the government giveth, oh, it can surely take away. And away they go.
Alrighty.

He’s reaping what he sowed.
Time to play fraudster Pokemon “Gotta catch ‘em all!!!”
Betcha there's gonna be a bunch of Somali's caught and shipped out too.
