Stolen identities of 400 Americans used by illegal immigrants arrested in MS ICE raids

ICE ICE Baby
Department of Homeland Security investigators discovered that the identities of 400 American citizens were stolen and used by illegal immigrants who were arrested this summer during immigration raids on Mississippi poultry plants, an official disclosed Thursday.
In August, 680 "removable aliens" working in Mississippi processing plants were arrested in a sting operation conducted by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, in what one official said could be "the largest single-state immigration enforcement operation in our nation's history."
CBS reported that the Homeland Security special agent in charge of the operations, Jere Miles, was grilled by the lawmakers, who criticized him for allegedly not giving local stakeholders a heads up and for separating children from their parents as part of the law enforcement initiative.
According to The Washington Times, Miles pushed back against lawmakers' claims that the arrested workers did no harm, telling the panel, "They stole the IDs of 400 U.S. citizens. Where's their voice?"
Miles pressed, "Is that not a serious crime?"
With that, committee chairman Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) cut Miles off and told him to "Be quiet."
The Democrats also took issue with the fact that workers had been arrested in the sting but no charges had yet been brought against the people who had employed them. Mr. Miles reminded the panel that 850,000 documents were seized from the businesses targeted in the raids, and reminded them that the investigation was ongoing.
"Seven months from now, a year from now, when we finalize the investigation, there'll be nobody thanking us for it," Miles added.

How can Miles not be supported here? In true form, laws don't apply when they run counter to a Dem agenda.

Were they at least smart enough to use names with hispanic origins, or did they catch Steve Anderson and his olive skinned family of 12?

I caught a snippet on the radio of Juan Williams (on the Five?) proclaiming that this proves undocumented immigrants (=illegal aliens) are supporting the economy by paying into the SS system without ever being able to get anything out of it.
unbelievable.
unbelievable.

I had mine used by someone in another state. I spent several grand on lawyers defending myself from collection attempts, hundreds of phone calls (and ultimately yet another lawyer) trying to correct my credit reports, and getting the city of Atlanta to acknowledge that it wasn’t me who acquired a collection of traffic violations was a multiple-month headache ... dealing with all of it took me many months.
Even 15 years later once in a while some random issue will pop up.
Dealing with all of that shite was most definitely a level of hell worthy of Dante.
I wonder how many times I’ve voted for a democrat?
