(Tempe, AZ) Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio says his deputies
conducted the 60th employer sanction/identity theft operation this
morning.
A tip was received from a source that employees were using forged
social security numbers for employment at Interior Solutions located
in the 400 block of West Fairmont Drive in Tempe. The complainant
also stated that they had a conversation with the owner about the
forged identities and no action was taken. Sheriff’s deputies arrested 4
suspects today and are facing charges of identity theft and believed to
be illegal aliens. The investigation is continuing.
Recently three raids were conducted on businesses resulting in the
arrests of 40 illegal aliens by the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office.
The majority were using false identification. The total number of
arrests in employer sanction/identity theft cases now stands at 627.
In the previous 59 employer sanctions/identity theft operations, 100%
of all suspects found to be committing identity theft to gain
employment were illegal aliens.
Arpaio says his office continues to enforce all aspects of the illegal
immigration laws.
Arpaio stresses that one of the benefits of these employer
sanctions/identity theft operations is that they open up job
opportunities for legal citizens.
