ICE breaks up N.C. ties to network that creates false paperwork (Israel, illegal immigrants)

[getout]

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. - Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents say they have broken up local ties to a brutal nationwide network of Hispanics who they believe produce false documents for illegal immigrants on the South Carolina Grand Strand and elsewhere in the region.
Some of the false documents were distributed in the Myrtle Beach, S.C., area by Victor Hugo Roa-Alzua, who will be arraigned in federal court Tuesday on five felony charges that he conspired to produce and transfer false identification documents.
Roa-Alzua is part of a national network headed by Israel Cruz Millan _ also known as El Muerto, which is Spanish for "the dead one" - that has been under investigation for the past year, according to court documents. The network has sent 1,500 wire transfers totaling about $1 million from its activities to a home base in Mexico, ICE officials said.

ICE officials say they have identified the network’s document production cells in at least 14 states, including the Carolinas. Roa-Alzua - who also goes by the names Primo and Leonardo - was part of a Wilmington, N.C., cell that also distributed phony documents along the Grand Strand, court documents say. He faces up to 75 years in prison if convicted of all charges.

Immigrants do not need false paperwork, illegal aliens do.

I hope he kept detailed records so that we now can track down the criminals who buys these documents and arrest them as well.

For those of you who always say, there are no criminal element associated with illegals, booya! Will we never learn, something has got to be done now, to curtail all of those helping in succeding with illegals crossing our borders. Americans need to jsut wake up!

Actually the number of illegals that have documents (though false ones) lends the lie to the term "undocumented" favoured by the pro illegal crowd

Yep. Most illegals are heavily documented. Of course, their documents are fake or stolen.
