damn real fake government issued photo ids are sure easy to get if you have connections. Original Article Woman admits making fake ID for spouse Dennis Wagner The Arizona Republic Oct. 7, 2005 12:00 AM A former clerk at the state Motor Vehicle Division pleaded guilty Tuesday to creating a fraudulent identification card for an Egyptian immigrant whom she married 18 days later. Barbara Bojorquez Youssef, 36, of Phoenix, was among 26 state employees arrested in a September 2004 sting aimed at MVD workers who were issuing false documents to human traffickers, undocumented immigrants and drug dealers. The two-year investigation by federal and state agents caught employees who took bribes of $600 to $3,500 at 10 MVD locations. FBI Special Agent Deb McCarley said Youssef's circumstances were different: She was convicted of creating a phony ID card for her future husband, Magdi Youssef, who was facing deportation proceedings at the time. McCarley said the card borrowed identity information from another man with a similar name. Barbara Bojorquez Youssef pleaded guilty before U.S. District Court Judge Neil Wake to one count of producing a false identification card. The maximum penalty is 10 years in prison, but defendants in plea deals typically receive dramatically reduced penalties. The undercover operation, known as Doubledriver, netted 34 suspects. McCarley said 32 of those have been convicted to date. "We put a lot of importance in public corruption," she added. "Even with MVD clerks . . . they're in a position of trust. They're responsible for the security of our country." McCarley said most of the defendants acted independently rather than as a network, and no terrorism ties were uncovered.
