sounds like the maid was playing the immigration version of the Ghetto Lottery

Sounds more like the diplomat picked the wrong Big Brother :) She counted on the Indian govts actions getting her her way. And the "Well, she makes less than that herself" doesn't fly with me. If you cant afford to pay the maid/nanny whats required, the answer isn't to commit a felony, the answer is to not have a maid.

so because she is posted to the US she should give up part of HER Culture



:popcorn:

If she cant afford it, yep. Either the Indian govt pays them enough to support that "cultural requirement", or she gives it up. Because her culture says she should have a maid doesn't mean she can break the law here. If a diplomats home culture allows engaging in sex with what we consider minors, would we let one bring a 12 year old wife here? And if he lied by forging immigration forms?

India diplomat indicted, asked to leave U.S.


NEW YORK/WASHINGTON D.C. (Reuters) - The Indian diplomat whose arrest and strip-searching in New York caused a major rift between India and the United States was indicted for visa fraud on Thursday, and the U.S. government immediately asked her to leave the country.

A U.S. government official said Washington accepted a request by India to accredit the diplomat, Devyani Khobragade, at the United Nations and then asked New Delhi to waive the diplomatic immunity that status conferred. India denied the request, leading Washington to ask for her departure, the official said.

In a letter accompanying her indictment on Thursday, the prosecutor in the case, U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara in Manhattan, initially said Khobragade had left the country.

Shortly afterwards, a spokesman for Bharara said in a statement that she had not left.

A lawyer for Khobragade confirmed this.

"Despite Preet Bharara's reports to the contrary, Devyani Khobragade has not left the country," Daniel Arshack, her lawyer, said in a statement. "She is at home with her children."

So, the linked video says she has left the country, but this article says she has not. I noted the hourly wage on the indictment paper, was $3.31 an hour. Given she was a live-in, not sure how hours are calculated.
