Unfortunately, many illegal gangbangers use this claim "I came to leave the gang life behind" to claim asylum (I would be persecuted because of my tattoos and "former" gang status. Had he not committed this crime, he would have had a good shot at asylum, and probably gotten it, especially if he was a juvenile, under 18. Yep, many immigration judges will grant asylum based on claims like this, on no more than a story of "possible" persecution.
He never would have had to mention his little murder by machete, and no one would have known unless he talked about it - there is no database mechanism in place to search for or do background checks on people like this in 3rd World countries.

And yet, this government plans on putting illegals on the Social Security system.....like that will work.
