There is no doubt that Elvira Arellano was a criminal, her continued unauthorized presence in a country from which she had previously been deported in 1997 defines her status as a criminal. Her use of fraudulent Social Security documents as well as her failure to report to the Chicago immigration authorities as she promised to do when she was initially released to care for her son, further substantiate her criminal intent to violate the laws of the United States.

The unauthorized re-entry of a previously deported illegal alien is a felony punishable by a maximum of 10 years imprisonment (8 USCS 1326 (b).) and Elvira Arellano’s presence in the U.S. after her previous 1997 deportation is a matter of record.

When she was apprehended in Chicago in 2002, she was working as a janitor at O’Hare International Airport under a false Social Security number which she supplied during the hiring process. She was convicted of working under a false Social Security number.

The false representation of a Social Security account number with intent to deceive for any purpose is a felony under the provisions of 42 U.S.C. § 408(a)(7)(B). A conviction for Social Security Fraud carries a maximum penalty of 5 years imprisonment and a maximum fine of $250,000.

Instead of deporting her immediately, the Chicago immigration authorities allowed her to be released on her written promise to turn herself in to the immigration authorities in August 2006. She subsequently failed to keep this promise and evaded apprehension by hiding out in the Adalberto United Methodist Church, a storefront operation on Chicago’s West Side that offered her “sanctuary.”
