According to the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office, Leobardo Estrada-Robles, 31, used the identity of a deputy, including his Social Security number, to work in the United States illegally. A deputy told the sheriff's Employer Sanctions Unit that the U.S. Social Security Administration claimed he owed $2,354 for employment at two separate construction companies in the Valley where he had never worked. After a short investigation, Employer Sanctions Unit detectives confirmed that Estrada-Robles was working at both companies using the deputy's identity. The construction companies positively identified the suspect, who they referred to by the deputy's name. After obtaining a search warrant for Estrada-Robles' home, deputies seized several other forms of identification, including permanent residence cards printed with several different names all containing Estrada-Robles' photo. Deputies arrested Estrada-Robles Wednesday evening. He was booked into the Fourth Avenue Jail on several counts of aggravated identity theft. According to the sheriff's office, Estrada-Robles was previously deported from the United States and returned illegally. "This illegal immigration problem is out of hand and can affect anyone, as in this case, where a law enforcement officer has had his identity stolen and runs the risk of his credit being affected," Sheriff Joe Arpaio said. |
On the one hand, What a mental genius to steal an LEO's identity.
On the other, I believe if it had been a regular person's identity which had been stolen, there would have been no official action concerning legal resolution of the crime. |
