The argument was that the illegal didn’t know the information belonged to another person. Forget the fact that they conspired to acquire unlawful documentation, you mean to tell me that they were so dumb they didn’t think it was illegitimate?

Last I checked, ignorance of the law is not a valid legal precept.


Using fake papers and using stolen papers are two different things. He may have fully believed he was using fake papers, but that is a different crime.
