I.N.S. vs. State Law vs. Federal Law
Fighting Deportation

Lopez, a Mexican national living in South Dakota,
was convicted of aiding and abetting the possession of cocaine.
According to INS, an "aggravated felony" is deportable.
Well, the crime Lopez was convicted of is a felony-
only under South Dakota law  but ...
only a misdemeanor under the federal Controlled Substances Act.
So can he be deported or not?
The question went in front of the U.S. Supreme Court.
December 2006, the Court ruled 8-1 that
a drug crime must be a felony under federal law
in order to count as an "aggravated felony"
for purposes of the INA, and therefore deportable.

Now there's Mory-Lamas,
Native from Peru has been in custody since 2004.
In brief, Mory-Lamas has been in detention for the last four years
fighting deportation.

He has filed petitions pro se all these years,
which is outstanding for an immigrant
who has acquired exceptional knowledge
of our U.S. Constitutional laws and Civil Rights.
Mory-Lamas pled guilty to a misdemeanor conviction
for simple possession of a controlled substance,
which is a state misdemeanor and not an aggravated felony
as decided in the Lopez case (Dec. 2006)
According to, H. Nelson Goodson from El Conquistador Newspaper
Mory-Lamas is not a danger to society, our government and
is not a flight risk, according to
his constant appeals against deportation dictate.
He has already served his sentence
for the conviction of possession and
remains incarcerated (detention) by U.S. Immigration.
Why hasn’t the U.S. Department of Justice resolved
Mr. Mory-Lamas case?
In this case, Mory-Lamas should be afforded the
same legal rights provided by [the Lopez case].
Shakira says NO
to being seen "underneath her clothes"

Shakira turned down the chance to star in new movie
'Love in the Time of Choler'a
because the role involved stripping naked.
She reveals Gabriel Garcia Marquez,
who wrote the original book,
wanted her to act in it as well.
But the 30-year-old was scared
a nude scene would anger her parents.
Shakira says, "There was nudity involved,
so I said no. My parents wouldn't like it at all.
So I said thank you, but no thank you."
This Colombian Diva still listens
to her Mami & Papi!
As it should be!
