United Airlines flight attendant posed as dead Atlanta boy for two decades

A Brazilian flight attendant working for United Airlines has posed as a late Atlanta boy for two decades, according to federal prosecutors.

49-year-old Ricardo Cesar Guedes is accused of stealing the identity of a late Atlanta boy, William Ericson Ladd, who died in an accident in 1979 in Washington state. Guedes used Ladd’s identity to apply for a US passport in 1998 and renew it six times through 2020, a federal complaint shows.

Guedes, a Sao Paulo native, then used the dead boy’s name to get a mortgage in Texas and got married. The complaint lists Guedes’ occupation as a flight attendant for United Airlines.

How many more of these clowns living in the land of milk and honey under illegally gotten id’s and ss #’s? Millions I’m guessing. Meanwhile, back on the border....

The media never made the connection:
- expansion of identity theft
- expansion of illegal immigration.

And a bunch of Muslims are posing as Hispanics. This is not news to anyone with friends in the Border Patrol.

Put him on a plane (not in it) and send him back to Brazil.

Flight attendant. How many times was he flying on an airplane in U.S. airspace?

The TSA will grope you and ask for ridiculous ID information while this criminal alien had his illegitimate passport renewed SIX times.

That was my reaction. Sure you can commit fraud to get a mortgage to buy a house. But to keep the house you need to be paying the mortgage. Oh and except in times of intense economic insanity you have to make a rather substantial down payment.

And, if you make the mortgage payments and no one suffers any loss is it actually fraud. I mean what damage did anyone suffer.

I don't condone immigration fraud, and that is what everyone should be freaked out over, not that he was otherwise a financially responsible individual who managed his money and his debts wisely.

Not an uncommon practice. Read an article that there were people who trolled cemeteries. got the names of dead children, researched the obituaries and then assumed their identities by initially requesting a birth certificate. The rest of the documentation including passports followed.

“Posing as a dead boy for two decades”?

That’s quite a trick. Is his name Dorian Gray?

“I hate goat tacos”

Tacos de Cabra. What’s ironic is the meat is promoted as lean but in Tijuana and elsewhere they often add lard to give it more flavor!

I don’t think you need to ask that, frankly. Him? Prison for identity theft, illegal entry and then deportation. It won’t happen but that don’t mean he doesn’t deserve it.

I thought they ate barbecued Iguana in Tijuana.

Especially from Brazil. We have firsthand knowledge of one in our community. They are completely disrespectful, brazen, arrogant, and in-your-face. Then they have kids on the U.S. taxpayers’ dime.
