None of these Korean nurses, who paid Kim over $3,000 each, landed jobs at CHC even after spending more money to study English at the University of Loyola.
Last Feb. 12, three months after his scheme became public, Kim was arrested by Investigator Edward R. Cabrera in San Antonio on probable cause that he committed document fraud.
Kim was later released on bail.
Pieces of information gathered by the Attorney General Investigation Unit indicated that Kim submitted a
fraudulent Korean police clearance to the CNMI immigration office before he got his entry permit.
In investigating Kim’s background, the CNMI government sought assistance from the Interpol.
The Interpol later informed local authorities that Kim has numerous pending arrest warrants in South Korea.
Kim was sentenced for fraud in 1998 as well as for embezzlement and other crimes, the Interpol stated.
