Some migrants flown by DeSantis to Martha’s Vineyard qualify for victim visas, feds say
Some of the 49 migrants flown to Martha’s Vineyard by the state of Florida are now able to legally work in the United States and have temporary protections from deportation — because they are considered victims of a potential crime, their attorney says.
The migrants are eligible for these protections because they applied for a special kind of visa meant for crime victims who are helping law enforcement, after they said they were tricked into taking charter flights from San Antonio to Massachusetts with false promises of jobs and other aid, said Rachel Self, an attorney for the migrants.
So even though all these migrants were subjected to the same treatment only some of them are getting legal protections?

Also, were all of these migrants told about the opportunity to apply for this special kind of visa? Or did the cops just pick and choose their favorites?
It's good to hear some people are getting visas, but allowing a criminally broken immigration system to just keep ruining peoples' lives and only fixing it for a small handful of them isn't justice.
