Answer 1

Of course you get a UnhandledException the deleteUser() throws a exception which you have not bothered to catch when calling it. Also, you do not have seemed to have bothered to check that the user has actually been deleted before outputting a string stating that they have. And as G.W. says click the code button before posting code. And get rid of those TODOs.
