An illegal immigrant living in Dyersville has been sentenced to prison for document fraud.

24-year old Jose de Jesus Becerra-Lopez was sentenced to nearly four months in federal prison on Tuesday.

Becerra-Lopez pleaded guilty in June to one count of unlawful use of identification documents. According to court documents, he admitted he used a fraudulent Social Security card and a fraudulent green card when applying for a job in Cascade in January.

He was previously deported from the U.S. to Mexico in 2012, but illegally re-entered the United States and was found by immigration agents following a car accident in Muscatine County in February.

He is being held in U.S. Marshal’s custody until he can be turned over to immigration officials.

Only four months for felony return, use of a fraudulent Social Security card and a fraudulent green card? I figure he should have received at least 12 months just for the felony return.
