First hand account of another one detained:
“While they were having dinner, a knock came at the door. My sister answered and two police officers were at the door . They decieved her by telling her that they were doing an investigation for identity theft around the neighborhood. But as soon as Ignacio came to the door , they actually revealed themselves as the Immigration police. They tore him away from his family at that very moment, in front of his children’s eyes. “

“My dad always takes my little sisters to school,” Jocelyn Avelica, Avelica-Gonzalez’s 19-year-old daughter told LAist. Jocelyn, who was at work at the time, said that the car that detained her father had been following him since he had left his house that morning.
“My dad dropped off my first sister and then when he turned around, they turned on their light,” Jocelyn said. “My dad was really scared. He didn’t want to pull over, but he did. As soon as he did, one car went in front of his truck and one in back of his truck. They took him out and they arrested him. My little sister was still in the car, she’s 13. My mom was also there.” Avelica-Gonzalez’s wife and 13-year-old daughter watched as ICE officials, wearing jackets that just said “POLICE,” arrested him.

Sounds like they found the identity thief.

You don’t really think FReepers are going to go to that link and fund Nacho’s return, do you?
Identity theft is not a victimless crime. A lot of citizens have had their lives ruined by it.
They’ve received $100.00 and a $17,000.00 goal.
They certainly ARE dreamers.:-)
