Description
Rozaline Silveuss cohabitant and boyfriend, Dorsainvil Jean, failed to report for deportation, prompting a search by immigration authorities. After agents failed to find Jean at their residence, an immigration agent received an anonymous tip that Silveus and Jean were transporting illegal aliens from St. John to St. Thomas on a ferry. The primary issues on appeal are the constitutional validity of the subsequent seizure and arrest of Silveus on the ferry, and the sufficiency of the evidence to support Silveuss convictions for harboring Jean at their apartment and transporting illegal aliens. Because immigration officials had reasonable suspicion that Silveus would be transporting an illegal alien and fugitive, her seizure and arrest were lawful. However, we conclude that the evidence produced at trial was insufficient to support Silveuss harboring conviction.
