ICE arrests 90 more students at fake university in Michigan

So the US homeland of Security set up a fake university, put it in the official accreditation website, and then arrest international students when they apply and join? WTH?

Isn&#x27;t this entrapment? [0]<p>If so, any self-respecting judge should have allowed the students to stay or at least refund their money back plus some more...<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nolo.com&#x2F;legal-encyclopedia&#x2F;entrapment-basics-33987.html" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nolo.com&#x2F;legal-encyclopedia&#x2F;entrapment-basics-33...</a>

There&#x27;s more information on the background of the university on Wikipedia[0], and also archived copies of their website and admissions policy on the Internet Archive[1].<p>[0] - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;University_of_Farmington" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;University_of_Farmington</a><p>[1] - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;web.archive.org&#x2F;web&#x2F;20170302161735&#x2F;http:&#x2F;&#x2F;universityoffarmington.edu&#x2F;admissions.html" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;web.archive.org&#x2F;web&#x2F;20170302161735&#x2F;http:&#x2F;&#x2F;university...</a>

&gt; the University of Farmington was later revealed to be a creation of federal agents<p>&gt; which cost about $12,000 on average in tuition and fees per year.<p>&gt; The fake university is believed to have collected millions of dollars from the unsuspecting students.<p>Between that and half of the current US gov being corrupt to an unprecedented level I wonder were all the &quot;A well regulated militia is necessary to the security of a free State&quot; guys are. This is 1970s eastern europe level of power abuse.

Our tax dollars at work... It sickens me that the Federal Government is allowed to waste money on this type of things while there are people dying from a lack of access to insulin here in the the USA becasuse of the cost. Why not simply let people come and work here if they so choice and use the taxes we collect to support our failing education and social services system. #AbolishICE

I feel like they should have &quot;safe harbor&quot; provision where if student report fake universities on first being aware, they should be able to safely transfer to another university.

This can&#x27;t be the best use of resources or money in our gov...

If such fake universities exist, why aren&#x27;t these resources being spent to identity and shutter them instead? If they don&#x27;t, why manufacture this elaborate heist instead of deporting the students in the first place when their visa ran out? Wouldn&#x27;t it be more cost effective to just pore through immigration records and do some on-site checks to find a &quot;real fake university&quot; than to create one?
