Shah Alam, 56, did not speak English. He was lost. He could not see. Border Patrol didn't contact his family or lawyer. They left him on the streets of Buffalo, where he died five days later.

“He’s always been that little liar.” Read our investigation into Rep. Cory Mills, whose scandals range from allegations of stolen valor, to reportedly hiring sex workers, to rumors of sucker-punching someone abroad.
