Pilot’s aide case highlights humanitarian motive and policy gaps
Carns told the Times and Post he allowed a man in his early 30s to join his Hawaii household in 1987 and later Washington to escape poverty. The INS policy lets abroad military personnel bring domestic workers for up to four years, but the man did no work or wage, left in 1992, and Carns and his wife say they acted with humanitarian motives amid mishandling. Carns had no espionage experience but a 35 year Air Force career as a strong manager.
