WEST DELRAY - Five Department of Motor Vehicle employees were arrested Friday and charged with issuing fraudulent driver's licenses to undocumented immigrants.

Authorities said the license examiners accepted fake passports and immigration documents to process the licenses at the Driver's License Office off South Military Trail, west of Delray Beach.

They were paid for their part in the scheme, according to an affidavit from the Florida Highway Patrol.

Those arrested were Melita Dera Zilea, 28; Maggie E. Nelson, 46; Debbie H. Collins, 42; Jashonda Kaliha Scott, 28; and Patreese Harvey, 28. They were charged with four felonies, each carrying a maximum of five years in prison. The five also were fired Friday.



"The Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles is committed to ensuring the security and integrity of the driver license and ID card issuance process, and the arrests today are a direct result of our efforts to identify and prosecute individuals in positions of trust, who violate that trust," said David Westberry, a spokesman for the state Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles.
