Immigration agent facing charges for requesting sexual favors

NEW YORK, NY - People who are in a position of power may sometimes use it for personal gain. This is what occurred with Isaac R. Baichu, an immigration agent, who asked a young Colombian woman for sex in return for a Green Card. She first came to the U.S. in 2004 with a tourist visa and overstayed. Later she met an American citizen and got married. The 22 year old woman whose identity is being withheld had a Green Card interview with Baichu. At the conclusion of the interview where the husband was also present Mr. Baichu asked the Colombian woman for her cell phone number. Three days later Mr. Baichu called to set up a meeting. The woman showed up because she knew Baichu could approve or reject her case. She along with two relatives had a small brush with the law previously and Baichu was using this to blackmail her. Baichu asked the woman to meet him in the parking lot of a New York diner. Inside his car Baichu explained what he wanted. He was requesting sex once or twice and mentioned that he could help other Colombians in a similar position. The woman hesitantly agreed to his agreement and Baichu asked her to give him oral sex to prove she was serious. The woman did not want to but she ended up doing it. The conversation between the agent and the young woman was recorded on the woman’s cell phone. Weeks later she turned over the recording to the New York Times. Baichu is currently suspended with pay while the investigation goes on. In the three years he worked as an immigration agent Baichu was responsible for handling over 8,000 Green Card cases. If he is found guilty of the charges, Baichu could face up to seven years in prison

although if this story is really true, of course the dude should be punished for what he did, absolutely wrong. and on to the woman, she overstayed her visa and had a run in with the law doesnt give me a good feeling about her either.

definitely not comparing the two... what he did was horrible and wrong and should be punished accordingly. She didnt have to do what she did, she chose to... but probably bcz she overstayed her visa like she wasnt supposed to plus had run ins with the law she felt compelled to.... she should have done the right thing and turned him in without doing the job she did.

Wow, People in charge/in power think and feel they can do whatever they want and think they can run away with it. Indeed no one is above the law.
