An illegal immigrant and mother was arrested for staging a fake “kidnapping” — where bounty hunters took her at gunpoint and tried forcing her to self-deport at a fast-food restaurant — to scam people and “smear federal law enforcement.”
Yuriana Julia “Juli” Pelaez Calderon, 41, was charged with conspiracy and making false statements to federal officers over the elaborate scheme on Thursday, according to the Department of Justice.
“Dangerous rhetoric that ICE agents are ‘kidnapping’ illegal immigrants is being recklessly peddled by politicians and echoed in the media to inflame the public and discredit our courageous federal agents,” US Attorney Bill Essayli said in a statement.
“The conduct alleged in today’s complaint shows this hoax kidnapping was a well-orchestrated conspiracy.”
The hoax kicked off when Calderon’s family and attorneys held a press conference on June 30, saying armed men ambushed her in two unmarked trucks at a Jack in the Box restaurant parking lot in downtown Los Angeles.
Her family claimed that the men brought Calderon to San Ysidro, where “she was presented to [a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement] staffer” and “presented with voluntary self-deportation paperwork,” according to officials.
The family’s attorney claimed that Calderon refused to sign the paperwork and demanded to speak with a judge and a lawyer, but instead was “punished” and held in a warehouse.
Following the media attention, Calderon’s daughter created a GoFundMe page and requested $4,500.
“My name is Angeline Gonzalez, and my mother, Yuriana Julia Pelaez Calderon, was taken by masked men in an unmarked vehicle on June 25th,” the since-deleted page read.

I give her credit for successfully scamming naive individuals.
As an illegal alien “I can not selfdeport”
Killing them and anyone involved on the spot would set a better example.
California said they would compensate families up to $25,000 for ICE raids, so this is what you get. Free money attracts scammers.

Oh, no. Put Putanayuriana in LOCKDOWN. Send her fat 🫏 to 🐊 Alcatraz where she has to poop in front of people and wash her hands in the TOILET - at least that is what Wasserstein -Schultz made it sound like.
Give her the full American prison experience since she wants to play criminal.
another scam brought to you by GoFundMe.
Just like legal dope attracts the scum of the earth to live in the streets of America.
Both the above scenarios are the machinations of stupid political leaders. And their constituents.
I wouldn’t be surprised if this plan came from or was organized by a pro-illegal immigrant group. I wonder if her “lawyers” know the truth? Or were they lawyer/activists?
Hopefully, now that she has identified herself, her whole family will be deported if they are illegal as well. If they are citizens, they should be prosecuted.
This group of thieves all need to be thrown in the Rio Grande and deported. Thieving bass turds. Even their “lawyer” is a crook. Kidnapped my ***. Fat slob and her daughter should not be in our country.
“California said they would compensate families up to $25,000 for ICE raids”
Bob, you are nuts! What a gross exaggeration.
The Los Angeles COUNTY Board of Supervisors voted 4-0 on Tuesday to create a fund, funded by philanthropic gifts, NOT TAXES, to help workers and their families in small L.A. County cities and unincorporated areas who lost income or are unable to work due to fear of arrest and deportation.
No dollar amount was announced, but it is being reported “a few hundred dollars on cash cards.”
If you can’t pack drag or lift something to steal make up a money story.
Juli Pelaez Calderon now says UFO’s made her do it...........
CHILDFREN WHO KNEW IT WAS A LIE ARE ALSO LIABLE FOR CHARGES
AIDING & ABETTING
CHARGE THEM
I think you are right. I recall reading that the TOTAL was laughably small like that.
We need this kind of creativity and self-victimization..at Columbia University.
