HILLSBORO, Ore. - A college student from Washington County could be deported after trying to renew her driver's license at a local DMV.
Alejandra Trujillo, 20, went to the Tanasbourne DMV office on Friday.
When a DMV worker asked her for identification, authorities say she handed over a fake Social Security card. The DMV worker called police and they arrested Trujillo.
Lt. Mike Rouches of the Hillsboro Police department said "at that point he [the officer] had probable cause to arrest her for the crime of criminal possession of a forged instrument."
Wednesday evening, supporters of Trujillo picketed outside the Washington County jail where she was being held. The said it is not fair to deport her to a country she has not lived in since she was 8 years old.
Officers say Trujillo told them she did not remember where she got the card. She said that her parents had her real Social Security card and wouldn't give it to her.
She also reportedly told police that they told her the Social Security number was valid.
Trujillo also reportedly told jail deputies she was born in Mexico.
Trujillo's college counselor, Brenda Maldondo, said "There needs to be some kind of policy that helps these citizens achieve their own dreams and I think that it’s unjust that we don’t have that yet in place."
