Quote from the 12 News report:
Investigators had received an emailed tip about forged identity documents used by employees. A former facilities manager told authorities the general manager said Golfland was going to ignore the law.
Court documents show Garcia used a social security number that didn’t belong to her, though the complaint doesn’t say whom it belonged to. Garcia’s family members and her attorney say she made up the number.
Garcia also used an alien registration number — identification for permanent legal residents — that belonged to a 55-year-old man.
No evidence was presented that individuals were harmed by the use of the Social Security number or alien registration number.
Garcia avoided trial by pleading guilty to a felony charge of criminal impersonation. She was sentenced to two years of probation and ordered not to remain in the U.S. if she was voluntarily deported.

ICE should be held accountable for exactly who they are going after and why. I will continue to fight to keep families together.
