  • explaining that Silva-Trevino “erroneous[ly] . . . allows an IJ not only to consider the crimes of which an alien has been convicted, but also to consider crimes he may have committed but of which he was not convicted”
  • limiting an Immigration Judge “to the record of conviction in determining whether an alien has been ‘convicted of’ a [crime involving moral turpitude]”
