Trial? Counsel? WTF?

LE: Do you have proper legal authorization to be in the US?

Illegal: Nope.

LE: Get the fuck out. Here's a one way ticket to Siberia.

What can counsel do here? It's not like even the smoothest lawyer can convince a judge the illegal in custody wasn't in the US... which happens to be the violation in question.

What trial is necessary? Get the fuck out.

Keep in mind I fully support opening the borders to anyone who can pass an appropriate background check and follows a much improved and streamlined process for gaining legal access. I also fully support crushing into dust anyone who circumvents that system. I also fully support revoking the business license of any company found to knowingly employ illegals.
