Mexican man living in Britt sentenced to prison for document fraud

CEDAR RAPIDS – A Mexican man who used a fraudulent identification document to obtain a job was sentenced today to almost four months in federal prison.

Jose Castaneda-Rivera, age 49, a citizen of Mexico illegally present in the United States and living in Britt, Iowa, received the prison term after a July 9, 2018, guilty plea to one count of false use of an immigration identification document.

In a plea agreement, Castaneda-Rivera admitted he used a fraudulent State of Iowa Non-Driver Identification Card when he completed an employment form on April 4, 2013, at a business in Forest City, Iowa.  Castaneda-Rivera knew the identification card was false and had not been issued to him by the State of Iowa.  Castaneda-Rivera used the fraudulent identification card to falsely claim he was authorized to work in the United States when Castaneda-Rivera knew he was not authorized to work.

Castaneda-Rivera was sentenced in Cedar Rapids by United States District Court Judge Linda R. Reade.  Castaneda-Rivera was sentenced to 114 days’ imprisonment and fined $2,000.  He must also serve a three-year term of supervised release after the prison term.  There is no parole in the federal system.

Castaneda-Rivera is being held in the United States Marshal’s custody until he can be turned over to immigration officials.

The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Kevin C. Fletcher and investigated by the Department of Homeland Security, Homeland Security Investigations.

Our pd not our of

He will be back in a few.months. Now maybe you could just go to las Palmas and check their citizenship status, will send a few home. go to the village court and check bobbies/bashkiem kitchen staff and send a bunch of those illegals home. Both employ illegal immigrants. The willow run is where lots stay. Maybe our of would like to actually help society and round these bastards up?

Not to worry ! New revised stats says their are only 21,999,000 illegals living in this country – Question – is that enough to throw and election for the socialist party of rats.

That will teach him a lesson!

3 yrs of supervised release?? what we gunna keep him around another 3 yrs so he can serve it?? deport him now and save all the government handouts to him over the next 3 yrs. Oh by the way, the hog plant will have one less employee if they deport him

Why not send him to East LA thats where all the vatos and chollos live.
