Justin Bieber's aggravated neighbor is allegedly pushing Los Angeles police to charge the 19-year-old pop star with a felony vandalism charge over the egg-throwing incident because, if convicted, Justin, a Canadian, faces the prospect of being sent home. He's currently living in the United States on a work visa.
"If Justin is charged with felony vandalism and convicted, it's very likely his work visa, allowing him to live in the United States, would be revoked," one law enforcement source told Radar Online. "It could be categorized as a crime of moral turpitude under United States immigration law."
Despite the law enforcement source's comments, TMZ is reporting that there's no way Justin will be deported - even if he's a felon! The site claims that Justin could go away to prison for years, as a worst case scenario, but he will not be deported.
They say that in order to be deported for a crime, the offender must commit what is called an "aggravated" offense. The law lists the various offenses, including: possession of explosive materials or firearms, possession of child porn, illicit drug trafficing, alien smuggling, threats against the President, and Sabotage or treason. Throwing eggs is not on the list.
TravelPulse has reached out to Justin's rep for comment.
In case you haven't heard the news, eleven L.A. County Sheriff cars visited Justin's Calabasas, Calif., mansion on January 14 to seize security camera video following a neighbor's accusation that the Biebs threw eggs at his home.
Would you be sad if Justin was deported? Do you think it's possible? Does he deserve to be punished?
