How about her family history in Somalia?
Were they members of the communist dictatorship of Said Barre? The fled Somalia the year his Government fell (1991), not with the masses pushed out by the genocide a few years prior (87-89).
Did they participate in perpetrating his genocide? Were they assisted in a fraudulent scheme to get into the United States by communist fellow travelers, similar to how a network of Nazi sympathizers helped Nazi war criminals escape to South America and establish new identities?
