According to a report by John Caniglia for the Cleveland Plain Dealer, more than 100 illegal aliens from Guatemala and Mexico were smuggled each month from December to April into Amish communities in rural Ohio. Three smugglers pleaded guilty in federal court in Cleveland to hauling the aliens. Abel Garcia-Mendez, Gustavo Sandoval and Abel Ramirez-Vasquez will be sentenced to about two years in prison, Assistant U.S. Attorney Phillip Tripi said in documents. The men face deportation.
They and four others are accused of racketeering in Holmes County Common Pleas Court, where prosecutors filed indictments that include charges of forgery and possession of criminal tools. Assistant County Prosecutor Jeff Mullen said the Bureau of Motor Vehicles in Millersburg usually helps about a dozen people a month obtain documents.
The scheme went on for months, as the illegal immigrants gave phony information to employees of the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles in Holmes County, prosecutors say. The scam collapsed when employees became overwhelmed by the huge volume of people seeking help, prompting the State Highway Patrol to investigate.Break out your Spanish-English dictionaries, folks. The US is being methodically and insidiously overrun. The nation needs to take a stand and fortify the borders or expect more and more people arriving to undermine our wealth, resources, and goodwill.
"It's so ironic. You just don't expect to find this in Holmes County," said the Rev. Kevin Conroy, a priest at St. Peter Catholic Church in nearby Loudonville who works to help immigrants. "This isn't a local issue; it's a national issue."
