N2  - The relationship between sexuality and law encompasses the regulation of sexual activities, expressions, behaviors, and choice of sexual partners. Although the most visible forms of sexual regulation occur in the policing of homosexual activities, heterosexual activities are not exempt, especially the activities of heterosexual females. This article examines how immigration and citizenship law provided the legal basis for the attempted deportation of an American-born female citizen under the “moral turpitude” clause of immigration law. It is a historical snapshot of a moment in which immigration restrictions, sexual politics, and law intersected to create a unique situation that compromised the civic rights of an American-born woman.<p />
