Federal authorities recently uncovered a scheme carried out by court officials in Utah who helped illegal immigrants evade Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Jennifer Joma, 27, and Lauren Kelsey Morrow, 26, have been charged with assisting several illegal immigrants avoid arrest after ICE agents arrived at the Logan City Municipal Justice Court on April 9, according to the Justice Department. When ICE agents showed up at the courthouse with an administrative warrant to arrest an illegal immigrant inside, Joma and Morrow allegedly misused court databases to identify who was illegally in the United States before escorting them out of the building, the Justice Department announced Wednesday. According to prosecutors, the two women began intercepting illegal immigrants, including ICE’s target, as they were leaving the courthouse and then moved them down several hallways before helping them slip through the back door, allowing them to avoid federal agents.
