Whiting job applicant's identity stolen

HAMMOND | A Whiting man who applied for a job with a north side fabrication shop this week was told that he already worked there -- or rather, an illegal immigrant using his identity already worked there.

Agents with the federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement office arrested a 39-year-old Hammond resident at the job site Wednesday on immigration charges.

The 38-year-old Whiting man already suspected that someone was using his name for employment purposes when questions were raised by the Internal Revenue Service over discrepancies with his income tax returns.

Turns out he had been working at an East Chicago chemical plant at the same time as the suspect two years ago when his wallet -- along with his Social Security card and other identification -- disappeared.

A manager at the West 143rd Street metal shop told police that the suspected identity thief had provided the employer with an ID and Social Security card in the name of the Whiting man.

The victim said Thursday afternoon that he didn't know yet if he has gotten the job, but he knew that there was an opening at the company.

politicos like Luis Gutierrez (congressman from Chicago) justify this as a matter of "desperation" by a noble and good-hearted people; no, it's not a crime! says he...

Why do so many of our politicians hate their own people? Where's the love and concern for our own families?

What kind of parents would invite strangers to have dinner at their house when their own children were going unfed?

What kind of hateful idiots praise and reward those who break multiple laws in order to feed their own children but condemn and punish Americans of all races who only want our laws enforced so they can feed theirs?

Thanks for your comments, MDillion. People should know that you are another LEGAL immigrant who speaks English fluently, in addition to Spanish.

Wake up Americans! Take action, Americans! LEGAL immigrants understand what we have and what we stand to lose. If they are courageous enough to stand up and fight for this country, why aren't you?
