Hi 4my....... and welcome,
You need to contact a good immigration attorney. Don't rely on advice from this forum.

Hi, it is quite a serious situation. He could be removed quite quickly. Have you not yet applied for his Permanent Residency? Did he enter the country without inspection (cross the border illegally)?
As ProudUSC says, a lawyer is a must. Advice on here is from lay-persons like myself.

If it's not fake you got yourself some serious problems.
Being illegal and in custody for what will likely be determined to be a CMT in the eyes of USCIS is a tough road to hoe. You haven't even filed an I-130. At minimum, he will be sent home. There is no staying here to adjust status.
Once back, you're looking at filing an I-601 waiver.
For the time being, even if you post bail for the criminal act there is a good chance he'll be remanded to the custody of USCIS for immigration violations. You need a lawyer. This goes beyond the capability of what you can find here or on any immigration site.
The moment you capitulate to lawlessness you've lost your civility.

The CIMT would be bad enough but if they determined it to be an aggravated felony then he could be removed administratively meaning he'll never get his day in court and could be gone in a week. That would be the worst case scenario. What was the assault for? Was it DV or something else?

Basically speaking, truth be told, you can get away with anything as long as you have friends in high places (this is universal rule, all over planet Earth).
You could be innocent as lamb and still end up in wolves stomack if you don't have friends in high places.
People with chronic diseases can absolutely have babies (and she didn't say they were full term). It's not always advised, depending on the condition, but it is certainly something that can (and has) happened. Even women with cancer have given birth to perfectly healthy children.

Aroha,
You're right, but I still don't think this is a true story.
