221249P.pdf   12/15/2022  Eduardo Escobar  v.  Merrick B. Garland
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  22-1249
   Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals   
[PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Benton, Circuit Judge] Petition for Review - Immigration. The evidence the government introduced on petitioner's alienage was not inherently unreliable and it was properly admitted; any inconsistencies in the evidence went to the weight of the evidence and not its admissibility; the IJ did not err in making common-sense inferences when reviewing the evidence to determine whether DHS met its burden of proving alienage; substantial evidence supported the agency determination that DHS had met its burden of proving petitioner's alienage by clear and convincing evidence; petitioner's CAT claim fails because he cannot show that the Honduran government intends to inflict torture or would otherwise acquiesce in torture committed by third persons if petitioner was removed to Honduras.
