It looks like CBP twigged there was a problem, but then failed to do anything about it.

Lennon was asked to attend a second interview but managed to leave the airport, entering the US illegally.
Thanks for posting an update.
At JFK, after a selection for secondary related to passenger identity questions -- something the fingerprinting process was supposed to do reliably especially when it comes to those deemed inadmissable to the US and sent back from a US airport of entry in recent years -- isn't the norm that the flagged person gets an escort and has the passport and/or customs declaration form taken from them thus making it somewhat difficult to exit the baggage claim/customs hall, if even making it that far?
He had been denied admission in the US when presenting himself at a US airport before.
Apparently it was his fingerprints that got him "selected".

So much for spending big money on technology when the people and processes using the technology are subject to be no better.
