Has anyone seen what visa status the guy had to get into the country?
Reportedly he was on an F 4/3 which is an immigrant visa for the child, under 21, accompanying an F4 principle. F-4s are the siblings of a USC. Wait time for a visa number is about 19 years. F4 is the category that people have talked for years about abolishing.
“The suspect is from Bangladesh, CBS News has learned. Ullah entered the U.S. with his parents and three to four siblings in February 2011 on an immigrant visa, sources tell CBS News. He obtained a green card and became a permanent U.S. resident.”
