§ 19.87 GG. Sexual Abuse of a Minor
The aggravated felony definition includes “sexual abuse of a minor.”[892] There is no requirement that a one-year sentence be imposed in order for sexual abuse of a minor to be an aggravated felony. This aggravated felony category therefore has the following elements:
(2) sexual (see § 19.88, infra)
(3) abuse (see § 19.89, infra)
(4) of a minor (see § 19.90, infra).
If any of these elements cannot be shown by clear and convincing evidence, the conviction cannot trigger deportability under this category.
In researching cases on the definition of sexual abuse of a minor, counsel should look not only to cases dealing with the aggravated felony definition, [893] but also to cases that define “sexual abuse of a minor” as part of the definition of “crimes of violence” under the United States Sentencing Guidelines provision governing sentences for unlawful re-entry into the United States following a felony conviction.[894]
