When President Obama's Kenyan Aunt Appears Before a U.S. Immigration Judge in BostonToday, She Says She Will Literally Be Making the Case for Her Life
ABC News: When President Obama's Kenyan aunt appears before a U.S. immigration judge in Boston today, she says she will literally be making the case for her life. Zeituni Onyango, 56, is fighting a 2004 deportation order by seeking asylum in this country – a status granted to those who cannot return home out of fear of being persecuted. But just what persecution Onyango claims to face and whether a judge will find her fears well-founded is uncertain. Onyango first applied for asylum in 2002 "due to violence in Kenya," but was denied and ordered to leave the country.
