发布日期 2026年2月18日
作为打击涉嫌移民欺诈的执法行动Operation Twin Shield的一部分,USCIS与ICE于1月15日在明尼阿波利斯逮捕了45岁的利比里亚公民Morris Brown。他涉嫌学生签证逾期居留,虚假声称拥有美国公民身份,并在没有合法身份的情况下在明尼苏达州担任惩教人员。
要点
- Brown于2014年以学生签证入境,因未能保持全日制学业,该签证于2015年被终止。
- 他在没有合法身份的情况下于2014年加入宾夕法尼亚州陆军国民警卫队,2015年擅离职守,2022年被以非光荣方式退役。
- 由于隐瞒军事服役经历等虚假陈述,USCIS于2020年拒绝了他根据利比里亚难民移民公平法案提出的绿卡申请。
- 2024年,Brown以此前的军事服役经历为由申请入籍,调查人员认为这是另一次欺诈行为。
- USCIS调查人员发现婚姻欺诈证据以及此前虚假声称美国公民身份的记录,并查明他曾以虚假公民身份在明尼苏达州担任惩教人员。
- Brown目前面临驱逐程序,并可能因移民欺诈及虚假公民身份声明而被刑事起诉。

明尼阿波利斯,美国公民及移民服务局(USCIS)开展的“双盾行动”再次取得成果,一名明尼苏达州矫正官员兼擅离职守的国民警卫队成员因在没有合法身份的情况下冒充美国公民而被捕。这名惯犯是在去年秋季针对明尼阿波利斯,圣保罗地区涉嫌移民欺诈行为的重大执法行动中被查明身份的。
MINNEAPOLIS — U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services’ Operation Twin Shield is yielding yet more results with the arrest of a Minnesota correctional officer and AWOL National Guard member masquerading as a U.S. citizen despite having no legal status in the United States. The serial fraudster was identified as part of the major enforcement operation that targeted suspected immigration fraud in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area last fall.
通过美国国土安全部(DHS)下属机构美国公民及移民服务局(USCIS)与美国移民及海关执法局(ICE)的联合努力,来自利比里亚的45岁非法外国人莫里斯·布朗(Morris Brown)于1月15日在明尼阿波利斯被ICE逮捕,罪名涉及多项违反美国移民法的行为,包括学生签证逾期居留以及虚假宣称拥有美国公民身份。
Through the joint efforts of Department of Homeland Security agencies USCIS and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Morris Brown, a 45-year-old illegal alien from Liberia, was arrested Jan. 15 in Minneapolis by ICE for multiple violations of U.S. immigration law, including overstaying his student visa and making false claims to U.S. citizenship.
美国公民及移民服务局局长约瑟夫·埃德洛(Joseph Edlow)表示:“随着国土安全部坚持不懈地追捕那些企图欺骗我们移民制度的人,'双盾行动'持续取得成效。这名外国人在失去合法身份后,用尽了各种手段企图继续留在美国。我们将动用我们所拥有的一切手段,确保他为其众多违法行为接受法律制裁。”
“Operation Twin Shield continues to deliver results as the Department of Homeland Security relentlessly pursues those who seek to cheat our immigration system,” said USCIS Director Joseph Edlow. “This alien tried every trick in the book to remain in the United States after losing legal status. We will use every tool at our disposal to ensure he faces justice for his many violations of the law.”
布朗最近一次入境美国是在2014年,持非移民学生签证入境,该签证于2015年因他未能完成全日制学业而被终止。尽管没有合法身份,他仍于2014年加入宾夕法尼亚州陆军国民警卫队,但次年便擅离职守。他最终被抓获,并于2022年以除光荣退役以外的条件被军方除名。
Brown last entered the U.S. in 2014 on a non-immigrant student visa that was terminated in 2015 because he failed to enroll in a full course of study. Despite not having legal status, he joined the Pennsylvania Army National Guard in 2014 but went AWOL the next year. He was ultimately apprehended and discharged from the military under other than honorable conditions in 2022.
布朗于2020年根据“利比里亚难民移民公平计划”申请绿卡。美国公民及移民服务局因其存在虚假陈述而驳回了该申请,其中包括未披露此前的服役经历以及虚假宣称拥有美国公民身份。2024年,他再次实施欺诈行为,以此前的服役经历为由申请加入美国国籍。
Brown applied for a Green Card in 2020 under the Liberian Refugee Immigration Fairness program. USCIS denied his application due to misrepresentations, including his failure to disclose prior military service and his false claim to U.S. citizenship. In 2024, in another commission of fraud, he applied to naturalize as a U.S. citizen based on prior military service.
在“双盾行动”期间,美国公民及移民服务局调查人员在审查布朗的入籍申请时,发现了婚姻欺诈的证据,以及他此前在官方文件中虚假宣称拥有美国公民身份的多项记录。调查人员还发现,他在没有合法移民身份的情况下,通过冒充美国公民的方式,在明尼苏达州担任矫正官员。美国公民及移民服务局已将此案移交移民及海关执法局处理,布朗目前面临驱逐出境程序,并可能因移民欺诈、虚假宣称美国公民身份及相关罪行而遭受刑事起诉。
During Operation Twin Shield, USCIS investigators looking into Brown’s application for citizenship found evidence of marriage fraud and prior instances where he falsely claimed to be a U.S. citizen in official documents. They also learned he was working as a corrections officer for the state of Minnesota—despite having no legal immigration status—by claiming to be a U.S. citizen. USCIS referred his case to ICE, and Brown now faces removal proceedings and potential criminal prosecution for immigration fraud, false claims to U.S. citizenship, and related offenses.
