STRATFORD -- An illegal immigrant from Guatemala has been charged with trying to pass himself off as a U.S. citizen while working on a roofing job at Sikorsky Aircraft.

Eusebio Chilel, 24, of Clinton Avenue, in New Haven, was charged with second-degree forgery and criminal trespass. He is held in lieu of $5,000 bond.

Police were called Aug. 20 to the Sikorsky Aircraft plant on Main Street to investigate a possible security breach. Chilel was attempting to enter the defense contractor's property to do work with a roofing company crew.

Police said people are allowed to enter the Sikorsky property only if they have valid identification and company security determined that Chilel's identification was fake.

Chilel told officers he had come to the United States illegally in 1999 from Guatemala and had been working for the Silktown Roofing Co. for six years, police said. Although Chilel had a permanent resident card, he admitted it was fake and he acquired it on the street in New Haven two years ago, police said. He also claimed he had gotten a Guatemala passport from the Guatemalan embassy and with that was able to obtain a New Haven resident identification card.

Police said Chilel drove to the Sikorsky plant even though he doesn't have a driver's license.

Police said they have also notified federal immigration officials about the incident.

An illegal invader with forged documents. What a surprise There's another one who seemingly is not cowering beneath the shadows in paralyzing fear!

Why didn't he get himself an i-9 and work for someone; and do roofing on the weekends? Then he is legal to work, have a family, and children.

This is happening!

An i-9 form is simply a form which the employer documents which type of identification the prospective employee presented to them in order to verify an applicant's right to work status in this country. It doesn't not mean squat if the applicant, such as this illegal invader, uses fradulent documents to satisfy that requirement.

All the more reason as to why E-Verify should be made mandatory in this country for any and all companies who hire employees.

THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT!

THANK YOU SO MUCH,

FALSE SECURITY BY THE GOVERNMENT! GIVING AMERICANS JOBS AWAY!
