Case 1: True Intentions Case 2: Premeditated Green Card Marriage Case 3: Research Questions & Answers Case 4: Small Town Disgrace Case 5: Cruel Admissions Case 6: Another Green Card Seeker I was married on February 14, 2002, to a Russian woman from St Petersburg, Russia. I have two older children from a prior marriage, who are teenagers and also live with me. With my Russian wife, I have one child, born in June 2003. Let me first comment on the Green Card. My estranged wife entered the USA on a K-1 fiancee Visa on January 24, 2002, and we were married several weeks later. We jointly filed for her adjustment of Status in April 2002, and she was given her INS interview and Conditional (2 year) Green Card in November 2003. That year and a half wait for the interview is normal if you live in New York. She would have become eligible for her permanent Green Card in November 2005. If you live in New York, time between the marriage and getting your permanent Green Card is often 3-4 years, much longer than in some other parts of the country. Note that she has to file her I-751 form sometime within 90 days after August 13, 2005. My estranged wife was served by me with a summons for a marital annulment, on the basis of (immigration) fraud in August 2004. This was after she had had at least 4 affairs, once becoming pregnant with another man's child. She also got venereal disease from an affair about 6 months after our baby was born. I also became aware that she was planning to spend most of the third year of our marriage outside the USA, in Russia, that she had never been genuine in the marriage, and that her mother was complicit in the scam from the beginning. During the entire (brief) duration of our marriage, we were also seeing a marriage counselor, who eventually advised me in private sessions that my wife was not sincere, she was emotionally abusive to all my children, as were her parents (who spent an inordinate amount of time with us), and that she was setting me up. The marriage counselor was adament that I should get out of the marriage as soon as possible to protect all three of my children. My concerns were hightened when it became very clear that she and her mother were trying to separate me and my older children from our young baby, to whom were are all very close. My wife was planning to divorce me as soon as she had her Green Card, but I could not wait. She had a plane ticket to take the baby out of the country for a prolonged trip, without my consent. So I began an Annulment action, which in New York is rare, but still exists as an alternative to divorce. My estranged wife was blindsided, as she was unprepared, and did not at that time have her ducks in a row to dump me. Unbeknownst to me at the time, she immediately contacted child protective services, and also the Coalition Against Domestic Violence, who accompained her to court on April 16, 2004. Now a word about money. My estranged wife is entitled to almost no alimony. She is now 27, healthy, and has a Masters Degree. A two year marriage does not get her much, if anything. In order to get a substantial amount of money, she would need to get child custody, and therefore child support money. How much? Based upon my income, it could be as high as $25,000-$30,000 per year or more. The present value of that amount of money over the next 21 years is where the number of a half a million dollars comes from. Her problem with getting child custody is that I am a great father, judging by a great track record with my two older kids. My teenagers are both on the top honor roll, both excel at sports and extra activities, both are socially well adjusted, and have good relationships with the extended families of both their mother and father. My first wife is a witness in my favor saying that I am a great dad. Furthermore, my estranged wife is an unstable person, having been engaged 5 previous times, having lived in 4 different countries with a similar failed track record everywhere, and a the family counselor who saw us has priovided an affadavit that says she is both abusive and a flight risk. So my estranged Russian wife has some problems. She did not stay married the needed amount of time. What could she do? 1. She could ask me for forgiveness, and ask for marriage counseling. She did this, and I agreed, but a month after this, she got caught having sex in our family car with a 24 year old guy, and like an idiot, put the summons they received in our family bill drawer to pay with the other bills. That was the end of reconciliation. 2. She could Apply to the INS for Green Card based upon hardship for our baby. This would have been the correct and moral thing to do. This would have also eliminated the need to prove she was married in good faith, which she was not. 3. She could claim to be a domestic violence victim, which is the path she chose. Too bad. This has only a 50% success rate with the BCIS, but she planned it for a long time. On January 3, 2005, she obtained a Do Not Harras Order of Protection from the local family court, which gives them to literally anybody. (I also was given one). On Januray 20, she went to the local hospital, with injuries to her knees and arms claiming that I had assulated her on January 18 and 19. Any forensic analysis done of these injuries would have shown that they were not consisent with her claims of how they were caused, but neither the hospital, nor the police, nor the family court would bother to do the basics. I was arrested on January 25. I could not get a hearing until February 14. She dropped her claim, but much of the damage was done. My children's lives and mine have been changed forever. The child custody case was supposed to be heard in New York Supreme Court this past February 16. It was delayed indefinitely, due to her domestic violence claims. It will probably happen later in the year. (Note that New York State is extremely screwed up in that Annulment and Divorce actions are held in Supreme Court, but Domestic Violence Claims are heard in Family Court, so the judges are usually unaware of the histories. Russians in New York are masters of keeping these before a different judge every time). When it is heard, I will likely win. I have filed a separate defamation lawsuit, and soon a false arrest lawsuit against my estranged wife, which I will certainly win. She does not have much in the USA, but whatever she does ever get, will belong to me. Through this second case, I am able to do a lot of the legal discovery necessary to prove my innocence. We might also discover who her accomplices were. I might have legal claims against the Coaltion Against Domestic Violence, since they apparently helped her set me up, as well as some other third parties. When all this is over, I plan to go to court and challenge the constitionality of the New York State Laws that can take your children, your home, your home business, and you life away without any hearing for up to six months. This is ridiculous. All three of my children were devastated, and these criminals picked on the wrong guy. I plan to change New York State law, to expose the corrupt Coalition Against Domestic Violence, and to shed light on the Violence Against Women Act, which is providing gross incentives to make false claims of domestic violence. I would also caution anyone thinking of marrying a Russian wife. It used to be she would leave you as soon as she got her Green Card. Nowdays, she does not need to wait. After her initial interview, all she has to do is to make a claim of domestic violence against you. She just needs to get you arrested, but not convicted. Then it is a Green Card for her, her kids if she has any, and later on, her parents and other family. And believe me, this is well understood on the streets of Kiev, Moscow, Brighton Beach, Bogota, and Los Angeles. It is only in the USA legislatures and courts that we are ignorant.
