Woman indicted for conspiracy in bringing Haitians to US
MIAMI, CMC – The United States Department of Justice (DOJ) says a federal judge has unsealed a three-count indictment returned by a grand jury in the Southern District of Florida charging an American woman for her role in bringing 143 Haitian nationals to the United States on fraudulently obtained guest worker visas.
The DOJ said Jetta McPhee, 59, of Tamarac, Florida and her co-conspirator secured the visas “based on false representations that there were jobs awaiting those workers.”
The indictment alleges that from April 2008 to July 2009, McPhee conspired with Haitian Marie Nicole Dorval to commit visa fraud by “making false representations to the federal government about the availability of construction jobs in order to secure H-2B guest worker visas for Haitian nationals.”
