Carlos Montoya's birth certificate shows he was born in Los Angeles in 1977. But when he tried to come back to the U.S. from Mexico on March 1, he says border agents deported him. "I showed them everything," he said, admitting he struggles with English. "And they took everything away from me." Lawsuit: LA Teacher Used N-Word, Racist Stereotypes Montoya, who showed his birth certificate to NBC4, says he spent the last year in Mexico undergoing treatment for epilepsy but had been traveling back and forth to Mexico for treatment every six months before then. He says he always carried his birth certificate, social security card, and California ID card with him and had no problems. But he says when he scanned his fingerprints this time, something very different came up on the border patrols screen. Southern California Images in the News[LA GALLERY UPDATED 3-22] Southern California Images in the News Attorney Luis Carrillo who now represents Montoya, explained. "What pops up on the screen is a photo of another individual and they turn the screen and they show him," Carillo said. "And Carlos says, 'Thats an impostor, yo soy Carlos Montoya, and they say, 'No, youre the impostor.' And he says, 'No, Im Carlos Montoya." Home Computer Accessory Vulnerable to Hackers The Chief Customs and Border Patrol Office and Public Affairs Liaison in San Diego, Angelica De Cima provided this statement to NBC4: While we are not at liberty to discuss an individuals processing due to the Privacy Act, we can provide general information about document requirements for U.S. citizens. As part of the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI), U.S. citizens entering the United States at sea or land ports of entry have been required to present a WHTI-compliant document such as a valid passport, U.S. passport card, Trusted Traveler Program card or an Enhanced Drivers License since June 2009. For more information about documents required to enter the U.S. please click on (this) link."
Montoya couldnt provide anything else, admitting he did not have a passport, so he said after a four-hour interrogation and two nights in a jail cell, he felt forced to do whatever the border agent told him.
He claims he was coerced to come up with a fake name he says he chose Jose Francisco Garcia-Garcia and to sign the paperwork that would deport him back to Mexico. Among the questions he says he was forced to answer falsely that he was born in Mexico and that he had never been to the United States.
Carrillo is asking the U.S. Inspector General to investigate the case, claiming coercion, incompetence and even corruption. All the while, Montoya remains in Nayarit, Mexico, hoping to come back home to Compton, California.
Just the left trying to destroy what little will is left to protect our borders.
I could see them deporting actual citizens.
Born in East L.A.
I had hell trying to prove to a Border Patrol officer outside El Paso that I was from here, and I am whiter than white.
Maybe this guy was “Born in East LA”?

I saw that movie....
“Born in east LA”
We only want illegals here. We can be sure they vote correctly. It would be best if we deported all non-illegals.
I am sure the Whitehouse can help this guy, they know how to fix birth certificates as well as Social Security cards.
Obama spin machine?
GOPe spin machine?
Maybe he's a conservative. That'd do it.
The USA is only for Mexican citizens. All US citizens have to leave.
Deport those who cannot or will not speak English, claiming to have been here for more than 25 years!!
No excuses!!
me too. it was pretty good.
Smells like propaganda... from NBC Los Angeles the truth is not expected.. or usually even required..
The day is rapidly approaching when you will have to be able to speak the Spanish tongue to prove you’re an “American”.
That is not a certified birth certificate with a raised seal. In California the counties, not the State of California Department of Health, issue certified birth certificates with a raised seal. I had to go through the process here in California in order to get my first passport. Jose’s story does not add up.
My name is Carlos Montoya. You said I was not born in the United State. Prepare to die.
my thoughts exactly; how could you be born here and struggle with English? I think there is something else going on here.
He’s lived in the US over 30 years, but speaks broken English?
Que lastima.
Adios amigo!
