CAMDEN — A Mexican citizen residing illegally in Camden was sentenced to 24 months in jail Thursday, for his role in a scheme to create and sell forged government documents, including Social Security and green cards, officials said.
Domingo Luna, 34, heard the sentence in U.S. District Court in Camden after previously pleading guilty to making fake identification documents and willfully entering the United States illegally.
Luna, also known under the alias "Morro," according to federal prosecutors, had previously been deported from the United States on May 29, 2012, after having been convicted of theft in 2001, and later of aggravated assault with bodily harm in 2011.
Later, special agents with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested Luna in Camden on Dec. 12, 2013, for producing fake documents. A Mexican citizen not legally in the United States, he has been held in ICE administrative custody since that time, according to officials.
The arrest was made after officers learned that a man known as Morro, later identified as Luna, was making and selling fake Social Security Cards, permanent residence cards and driver's licenses from a location in Camden.
According to federal prosecutors, Luna from early to mid-December 2013 sold two fraudulent Social Security cards, a fake permanent residence card and a fake Pennsylvania driver's license to an undercover officer.
"Luna took pictures of the officer with a digital camera and produced the documents at the Camden address," read a statement from the United States Attorney District of New Jersey on Thursday. "At the time of his arrest, law enforcement officers found evidence of a sophisticated fraudulent document-making operation, including computer equipment, a digital camera, a laminating machine and at least 25 fake cards in Luna's residence."
In addition to the prison term, Judge Joseph H. Rodriguez sentenced Luna to three years of supervised release.

24 months sentence and 3 years supervised release? That's it? Really?! This person is a "Mexican citizen not legally in the United States", why would we release him with supervision? Does that mean he won't be deported? This is an illegal alien from Mexico, why wasn't he deported already?
