!4th Amendment and anchor babies

I'm pretty sure that if a foreign national marries an American citizen then there is no argument or question. It's a time-honored practice to gain entrance into a country by that very means.

But there is an arguement and question as it can also be a very serious crime, more serious than just plain illegal entry.
Have a look at that recent episode in Norfolk Virginia with what was in effect human trafficing plus defrauding government.
I will see if I can find a link but in essence it was a scam where sailors were being paid for importing fake "brides" from eastern europe so the women got into the States andthe servicemen could claim pay benefits on their fake marriages.

Of course it can be used to commit a crime, as can just about any other legitimate law or practice. I was answering a specific question.
