• Larceny after trust
• Murder
• Soliciting for prostitutes
• Voluntary manslaughter
• Sale of narcotics or other illegal drugs
• Pattern of failure to file federal tax returns in years in which taxes are due
• Criminal Issuance of a bad check
• Making a false report of a crime
I can't hold on any longer. Sorry guys.

"Murder" followed by "soliciting for prostitutes". :? Now that is chalk and cheese. Reminds me of the days when murder and stealing a loaf of bread were treated the same.

Is this the full list? There seems to be some other serious crimes missing from it.
So it looks like under US Law, if you commit First or Second degree murder, you cannot enter, but if its 3rd degree, your OK...

This is a good news story. "Drunk Teen refused Visa to USA for Folk Lift Joyride"

I do think its more a breakdown of a single US INS person in Sydney not using his brain, than the whole system. But then again.........
