EXCLUSIVE: CALIFORNIA DMV ORDERED TO OVERLOOK IDENTITY THEFT BY ILLEGALS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Breitbart<\/p>\n

Illegal aliens may enjoy a free pass on identity theft due to a new investigative policy at California\u2019s Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).<\/p>\n

The policy, issued last year and effective as of Jan. 1, 2015, directs DMV investigators to overlook identity theft by applicants \u201cwho may have attempted to obtain or been issued a license or ID card previously through submission of false information.\u201d<\/p>\n

A DMV source who asked to remain anonymous provided Breitbart News exclusively with a copy of the newly-enacted internal policy memorandum. The document informs DMV investigative officers that past identity theft is acceptable when the illegally-acquired IDs were only used to obtain a driver license, and where the license or ID was not used to commit any other crime.<\/p>\n

It is unclear how investigators are meant to determine whether a falsely obtained driver license or ID was used solely for driving, or also to commit other crimes, such as using a fraudulently-obtained driver license to open a bank account, to apply for a loan, or even to purchase alcohol.<\/p>\n

The policy seems to expect applicants to admit voluntarily to using a fraudulent driver license or ID for purposes other than driving a motor vehicle, if they did so.<\/p>\n

Typically, identity theft may be prosecuted as a felony in California. The new DMV policy may be an attempt to protect illegal aliens from prosecution and conviction for a felony that could lead to their deportation, and disqualify them from President Barack Obama\u2019s new \u201cexecutive amnesty\u201d policy.<\/p>\n

The source told Breitbart News: \u201cMy belief is that this policy came from the governor\u2019s office.\u201d The source added that a naturalized or natural born U.S. citizen who attempted to obtain a driver license fraudulently would not receive the same consideration, and would be prosecuted as a criminal.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s unethical and it goes directly against the law enforcement code of ethics,\u201d the anonymous source said of the new DMV policy.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for the California DMV told Breitbart News that while the agency \u201ccan\u2019t prove it if someone completely lied on their identity the first time,\u201d the DMV is constantly searching for \u201cinconsistent information,\u201d and turns relevant cases in to the district attorney\u2019s office for prosecution.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a chance we could miss someone,\u201d she cautioned, but assured Breitbart News that \u201cinvestigators are constantly looking for cases\u201d of identity theft. HERE<\/a>
