The U.S. Department of Justice has announced the indictment of 11 individuals in connection with a sweeping international marriage fraud scheme. These suspects are accused of orchestrating a decade-long operation that facilitated sham marriages, primarily involving Chinese nationals, to obtain green cards. This extensive fraud scheme reportedly included over 1,000 fake marriages, making it one of the largest of its kind in U.S. history. Attorney General Todd Blanche emphasized the complexity of the operation and the federal commitment to cracking down on immigration fraud.
