But the real problem is that, like so many things in the Obama administration, despite there being laws and regulations that are unambiguous, administrative agencies frequently ignored them and did so without penalty. Unsurprisingly, it turns out that the DACA implementation was rife with failure and fraud.
Matt O'Brien, an attorney who until last year was a manager in the investigative unit of USCIS, “As many as half of the approximately 800,000 people who now have work permits under DACA may have lied on their applications to get approved.”
“USCIS never verified anything people put on their DACA applications,” she said, citing an example of how dangerous this might be. A DACA applicant named Emmanuel Jesus Rangel-Hernandez was granted DACA status despite USCIS admitting it had not checked this gang member’s application. He went on to murder four people in Charlotte, NC. The government agency merely accepted his application as truthful and accurate, never checking any of it.
