I-360 visa after divorce in 2010! Scam!

[USANavyVet 0]

Can anyone help me here? I just found out that the scam artist that I married quickly in 2006, but divorced in 2010 (we were apart 75% of that time) actually obtained an I-360 visa at my expense! I am beside myself that he was able to get that when he has a permanent domestic injunction on him by wife #2 (before me) that came here to the states with him from England and now he has another injunction presently filed against him by wife #4 for rape! I also filed restraining orders against him when I was married to him, as after finding out that he was using me for a visa to this country, I quickly withdrew my petition to sponsor him and that's when he became completely irrational. The only thing I am guilty of is dismissing the orders (after they were initially approved) like the naïve girl that I 'was'! I am a 30-year member of the Armed Forces with a top secret clearance and this man has done nothing but harass the hell out of me on and off base. Now, he married another military member for Tricare benefits, as he has some medical issues. She also married him quickly (he is extremely convincing and manipulative) and within only a matter of a few months, she too is divorcing him and filed an injunction against him for rape! This has been investigated by the U. S. Navy and considered absolutely legitimate. They go to civilian criminal court within the next couple weeks. At our divorce hearing in March 2010, I remember him bringing his immigration lawyer who made a comment to our divorce judge that he was in the "process" of acquiring his I-360 visa for spousal abuse and the judge chuckled. The judge actually wrote up our divorce papers so that he could make sure that he documented that he listened to this scammer try to accuse 'me' of "spousal abuse for 5 1/2 hours of testimony" and that the judge determined, "by Florida law, this man is absolutely not a battered spouse in any way, shape or form." All this time since the divorce, my ex has taken me out to dinners, lunches, a couple of trips (Belize/England) and I have numerous emails/texts messages (I keep everything for documentation purposes as my lawyer instructed me to do) where he is asking me to please come back in to his life, or to leave this country with him that he 'hates so much', etc, etc. He always told me that he finally did acquire a visa but only because he paid out a lot of money (he kept it a secret that he actually got the spouse abuse visa approved 2 months BEFORE the divorce hearing!). I am very naïve to all of this immigration and visa stuff. His current wife and I have been speaking and I am finding out even more stuff about him, like he was diagnosed with dysthymia, recently (I always knew he had a strong case of bi-polar and depression) and prescribed medication that he refused to continue. Anyway, I understand that mental problems do not account for anything, but WHY would this man who has so many things AGAINST HIM be allowed a spousal abuse visa at MY expense when I am the American citizen, 30 year member of the military with a top secret clearance?! This is insane! In closing, I went to Immigration this morning (made the appointment right after his current wife told me she actually saw this visa in his possession) and guess what I was told? They cannot do anything about it now that he actually has the visa and that he acquired it by one thing: a nasty letter from him that apparently "portrayed me in a very bad light." No one ever contacted me, listened to my side of the story (the truth), checked his criminal background, etc! What do I do? Write our Congressman? The President? This is so unfair! Thank you for your time.

I am sorry about you story but you can't do anything about it. Did you send to ICE and Uscis when you got divorced proof about the scam?. Uscis cannot contact the Us Citizen to hear his\her side of the story.Vawa is protect by Privacy Law.They approve the alien case based in police report and restraining order in case of physical abuse, in case of mental abuse they consider physichological evaluation and affidavits from friends and family and in both case the alien has to prove bonafide marriage showing commingling finances and commune residence. If the spouse feels the foreign spouse scammed him\her then when the separation or divorce they should contact ICE and Uscis.
