U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials are investigating Bouzaglo, an Israeli citizen, regarding time he spent in prison prior to his immigrating to the United States. Bouzaglo's immigration lawyer did not disclose details of the case to the Republic, but the paper, citing a "high-ranking law enforcement source," reports that Bouzaglo's international record hints at involvement in "drug distribution, threats, and extortion."

When I worked in NY, we had these cases all the time. Immigration doesn't have anywhere enough resources to investigate applicants, so it's essentially an honor system. Only if someone commits a major crime or is suddenly famous for another reason (as here) will people look into the details.
