MORRISTOWN, Tenn (WVLT) -- Morristown Police have busted an illegal document mill for the second time in eight weeks.
These types of operations sell faked or forged social security cards, resident alien cards, and other official forms of identification to illegal aliens.
Tuesday night, Morristown Police served a search warrant in the Fairway West Apartments located at 2501 N. Economy Rd in Morristown.
A search of the residence turned up multiple resident alien cards and social security cards believed to be fraudulent, according to a Morristown news release.
They say they also found and seized a computer, cameras, and other electronic equipment, to include a typewriter, printer, and laminator allegedly used to manufacture the fraudulent documents.
Aron Herrera Juarez, 31, of 2501 N. Economy Rd., is charged with two counts of Criminal Simulation for allegedly selling fraudulent resident alien cards to an undercover informant. He also faces another count of Criminal Simulation following the search warrant.
Also charged: Hugo Perez, 30, Ermilio Juarez, 24, and Gelber Juarez, 20, are charged with one count of Criminal Simulation.
Morristown Police do not believe any of the suspects are in the country legally.
"These type document mills supply individuals with papers which they often use fraudulently to obtain employment and services," Morristown Chief Roger Overholt said. "We have received much assistance with these type cases from State District Attorney Berkley Bell. We also hope to be assisted by Federal Prosecutors. We believe that the Federal Judicial System is better suited to deal with illegal aliens and associated criminal charges."
