An illegal immigrant was charged today with using the Social Security number of someone who died four decades ago to work at a Sheboygan Falls dairy farm, according to a criminal complaint.

Enrique Guillen-Dominguez, 36, of Sheboygan, could face up to three years in prison on a felony count of identity theft for financial gain.


According to the complaint:


The fake ID came to light Wednesday when Guillen-Dominguez was cited for failing to yield the right of way at a stop sign in Plymouth. A Plymouth police officer spotted marijuana flakes in the car, so Guillen-Dominguez and his 20-year-old passenger were arrested.


An ensuing search turned up a Social Security card with a number registered to someone who died in 1971.


Guillen-Dominguez, a Mexican immigrant living at 1212-A Erie Ave., then admitted he bought the card after arriving in the United States and used it to work at A-OK Farm in Sheboygan Falls. He was hired there in December 2009.


Jail officials said Guillen-Dominguez has a detainer from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, meaning he is in the country illegally and will likely be deported once the criminal case and any sentence is complete.

My goodness. Plymouth, WI is kind of a sleepy little town except for the Road American race track.

I guess this cop didn't get the memo that only the initial infraction of law is actionable. It is "racist" to draw on any observations or suspicions outside of that.
