Story summary

A Chicago man named Parth Nayi has been organizing hundreds of fake robberies in the city to help noncitizens acquire immigration visas, specifically U visas. These visas are granted to noncitizen victims of certain crimes if they assist law enforcement in investigations. The motive behind this fraud is reportedly to allow undocumented individuals to come forward with knowledge of criminal acts without fearing deportation. This revelation challenges perceptions that Chicago is primarily a hub for violent crime, instead highlighting issues related to immigration and fraud.
