An Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) e-mail from April 2012 shows that the agency granted Onyango Obama – an illegal alien and uncle of President Barack Obama – a stay of deportation to allow him “to seek reopening of his deportation proceedings,” which had been settled and closed by a Board of Immigration Appeals in 1992, when he had been finally ordered to leave the United States.
Onyango Obama, 67, is the half-brother of Obama’s father, and he had been living in the United States since 1963. He was initially ordered to leave America in 1989. In August 2011, he was arrested for DUI in Framingham, Mass. The ICE e-mail was obtained, along with other documents, by the government watchdog Judicial Watch, as part of a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit the group filed in April.
The e-mail, dated April 1, 2012, was sent by ICE Assistant Director of Public Affairs Brian Hale to ICE Director John Morton.

Onyango Obama’s DUI case was granted a one-year continuation by a Framingham District Court in March, reported The Boston Globe. Although Onyango Obama initially had his driver’s license suspended for 45 days at that time, he received a “hardship” license shortly thereafter so he could continue working at his job as the manager of a liquor store.
According to this lawyer, P. Scott Bratton, Obama now has a temporary work permit and plans to appeal the 20-year-old deportation order against him.
