"unaccompanied minor" illegal alien turns out to be 42 years old | Eastern North Carolina Now

Illegal alien migrants claiming to be "unaccompanied minors" at the border and then turning out to really be adults who are lying about their age has been a major problem in both Europe and America.  US border officials do not do any meaningful checks, just take their word for it.

A recent one however probably has set a record.  He told border officials that he was an unaccompanied minor from Iraq and claimed to be 17 years old.  He was placed in a juvenile facility, but officials there grew suspicious due to his thick beard and receding hair. A fingerprint check revealed that he had been encountered by British and American forces in Iraq in 2006 and identified as a fighter for the ISIS Muslim terrorist group, and also that he was really 42 years old.

The illegal alien has been ordered deported but is being housed in a three star hotel awaiting his appeal of the deportation order.

Several years ago, Norway began doing dental development exams to determine actual age and found that 90% (ninety percent) of illegal aliens claiming to be unaccompanied minors were really adults who were lying about their age.   France began accessing government data bases of North Aftican countries to check age based on fingerprints and they also found that a majority of those claiming to be unaccompanied minors were really adults lying about their age.
