Illegal Immigrant Cop

Oscar Ayala-Cornejo recently lost his job as a Milwaukee police officer, when it came to light that he is a Mexican citizen in this country illegally.

His brother, Alexander Ayala, is an American citizen and still on the force. Oscar could have become a citizen too, but chose to steal a dead cousin's identity instead. As Assistant U.S. Attorney Mel Johnson explains:

That was just perceived as the easy way to do it but it turned out to be a bad decision.

Prosecutors are recommending a 6–12-month sentence. Ayala-Cornejo has agreed to deportation afterward. When he sneaks back in again, he might want to bring his resume to Santa Fe, where they've considered hiring Mexican nationals as police officers.

On a tip from Wiggins.
