In a letter on Thursday to Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem and FBI Director Kash Patel, Keating said the man, Juan Francisco Méndez, 29, was in the process of receiving derivative asylum status through his wife, an asylee, and requested that he be reunited with his wife and son, absent a criminal record.
