1
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:12,220
>> We'll be doing 115,
118 down the straightaway.

2
00:00:12,220 --> 00:00:14,270
This is Pittsburgh International.

3
00:00:18,150 --> 00:00:20,150
That was a good one.

4
00:00:24,170 --> 00:00:26,450
And I hit him.

5
00:00:26,450 --> 00:00:28,390
That's racing --
stuff happens.

6
00:00:30,450 --> 00:00:31,780
My name is Mike MacQueen.

7
00:00:31,780 --> 00:00:34,760
By day, I'm senior historian
in the Human Rights

8
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:36,400
Law section of the office

9
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,180
of the Principal Legal Advisor

10
00:00:38,180 --> 00:00:41,500
investigating persons
who committed war crimes

11
00:00:41,500 --> 00:00:42,960
and crimes against humanity.

12
00:00:43,480 --> 00:00:45,490
And on evenings and weekends,

13
00:00:45,490 --> 00:00:47,830
I am a race car mechanic
and a race car driver.

14
00:00:49,470 --> 00:00:52,380
I dropped out of college
after my freshman year

15
00:00:52,380 --> 00:00:53,880
and went to work
as a mechanic,

16
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,590
and built one of these cars,
an MG Midget,

17
00:00:56,590 --> 00:00:58,710
and raced that in my early 20s,

18
00:00:58,710 --> 00:01:01,640
and then I started again
at about age 60.

19
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,640
For me it's a great distraction

20
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,610
from some of the work
we do at ICE.

21
00:01:09,310 --> 00:01:12,750
The war in Bosnia was a war
of all against all, literally.

22
00:01:15,500 --> 00:01:19,440
In the former Yugoslavia
in the period 1991--1999,

23
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,840
persons who committed war crimes

24
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:23,620
and crimes against humanity,

25
00:01:23,620 --> 00:01:25,350
after having murdered
their neighbors

26
00:01:25,350 --> 00:01:27,100
and burnt their houses down, said,

27
00:01:27,100 --> 00:01:28,850
"Oh, I'm a refugee,"

28
00:01:28,850 --> 00:01:32,080
falsified their applications
for immigration benefits

29
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:33,490
and entered the United States.

30
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,480
Slobodan Mutic committed
two ethnic murders

31
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:42,190
of a beloved pair
of dentists in his hometown.

32
00:01:42,190 --> 00:01:45,200
Not too long after that,
he murders his girlfriend,

33
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,900
comes to the U.S.
Found the guy in Cleveland.

34
00:01:47,900 --> 00:01:50,540
In three separate trips
to Croatia,

35
00:01:50,540 --> 00:01:53,700
I accumulated from various repositories

36
00:01:53,700 --> 00:01:56,130
all the documentation
needed to build the case,

37
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,250
brought in the agent in Cleveland.

38
00:01:59,250 --> 00:02:01,750
We got an arrest warrant,
we got a search warrant,

39
00:02:01,750 --> 00:02:05,130
we found incriminating
documentation in his home.

40
00:02:05,130 --> 00:02:08,100
He admitted elements
of the double murder.

41
00:02:08,100 --> 00:02:12,070
However, given that we can't
prosecute for murder,

42
00:02:12,070 --> 00:02:14,880
we're left with
immigration fraud.

43
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,420
Slobodan got two
years' federal time,

44
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,990
and then a directed
removal to Croatia,

45
00:02:20,990 --> 00:02:23,430
where he can stand trial
for the murders he did.

46
00:02:25,130 --> 00:02:26,730
In Northwest Bosnia,

47
00:02:26,730 --> 00:02:28,920
you had this little
pirate statelet

48
00:02:28,920 --> 00:02:31,480
called the "autonomous region
of Western Bosnia."

49
00:02:32,780 --> 00:02:34,360
Suleiman [Moegich?]

50
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,120
was the commander
of a platoon

51
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,940
which captured a group
of government soldiers.

52
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,520
He murdered one of
the government soldiers

53
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,340
in front of the eyes
of the others,

54
00:02:44,340 --> 00:02:47,290
and then mercilessly
tortured another soldier.

55
00:02:48,070 --> 00:02:50,940
We traced him
to Utica, New York.

56
00:02:50,940 --> 00:02:54,080
He owned a store which dealt
in Bosnian food products.

57
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,200
And we got witnesses in Bosnia,
put together a beautiful case,

58
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,350
and he was extradited to Bosnia

59
00:02:59,350 --> 00:03:00,790
and got eight and a half years.

60
00:03:02,370 --> 00:03:05,480
In some cases, we already
have a big corpus of evidence.

61
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,820
Or, if we only
have an indication

62
00:03:07,820 --> 00:03:10,820
that a person was a bad guy,

63
00:03:10,820 --> 00:03:15,170
that's when I tell our HSI
component I need money

64
00:03:15,170 --> 00:03:18,260
because I've got to go to Bosnia,
and build a case that way.

65
00:03:20,980 --> 00:03:23,060
In the Croatian
state archive,

66
00:03:23,060 --> 00:03:24,900
in a box of materials,

67
00:03:24,900 --> 00:03:27,660
I found a list
of dangerous prisoners

68
00:03:27,660 --> 00:03:30,050
to be transferred
to the maximum security prison,

69
00:03:30,050 --> 00:03:32,200
and there was, like,
60-something names.

70
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,400
So I ran all the names through CIS,

71
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,870
and I found another
four subjects in the U.S.

72
00:03:40,270 --> 00:03:43,240
In my 20s, I finished
my undergrad degree in economics,

73
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,990
and I fell under the influence
of an evil professor

74
00:03:45,990 --> 00:03:47,380
at Michigan,

75
00:03:47,380 --> 00:03:49,340
who was a Polish Ukrainian,

76
00:03:49,340 --> 00:03:51,250
said, "You know, Michael,

77
00:03:51,250 --> 00:03:53,920
I know of some extremely
interesting documents.

78
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,900
You need to study these."

79
00:03:56,900 --> 00:03:58,960
And it was stuff about
the Polish underground

80
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:00,700
army during World War II.

81
00:04:00,700 --> 00:04:02,140
And I spent 20 years

82
00:04:02,140 --> 00:04:05,140
doing holocaust criminals
for the Office

83
00:04:05,140 --> 00:04:06,670
of Special Investigations

84
00:04:06,670 --> 00:04:08,230
of the U.S. Department of Justice.

85
00:04:08,810 --> 00:04:10,800
And then here at ICE,
what we're dedicated

86
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,320
to is making sure
that the United States

87
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,220
is not a safe haven for people

88
00:04:15,220 --> 00:04:16,900
who committed these horrible acts.

89
00:04:17,900 --> 00:04:18,900
It's very satisfying.

90
00:04:18,900 --> 00:04:21,110
We've got some great agents
in the field.

91
00:04:22,300 --> 00:04:23,740
The more cases we open,

92
00:04:24,670 --> 00:04:27,350
the work seems to be
without termination.

93
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:35,020
Racing, for me, it's the off switch
from what I do at ICE.

94
00:04:35,020 --> 00:04:37,010
My garage is my second home,

95
00:04:37,010 --> 00:04:40,690
and I spend virtually
all my free time out here.

96
00:04:40,690 --> 00:04:43,750
I like these cars, I know them,
can take them apart,

97
00:04:43,750 --> 00:04:45,540
put them back together in my sleep.

98
00:04:45,540 --> 00:04:46,850
You've got to be
absolutely patient.

99
00:04:46,850 --> 00:04:48,070
There's no shortcuts.

100
00:04:48,070 --> 00:04:49,960
Same thing with ICE,

101
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,600
preparing for immigration court
or for federal prosecution;

102
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:54,840
there's no cutting corners.

103
00:04:54,840 --> 00:04:56,900
Great patience, diligence

104
00:04:56,900 --> 00:04:58,510
and persistence
are required.

105
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,300
It was a good one!
