Or, once here, why did he not start the citizenship ball rolling?

I am certainly sympathetic to the pain and fear this man and his family are going through. But their whole life was built on the foundation of a crime.

Yes it most certainly will. It will be the same for money launderers and drug dealers. I don’t mean to create a moral equivalency between these worse crimes and being in the country illegally but just wanted to point out that a life built on a lie is tenuous at best.
