One Pleads Guilty in Driver's License Crime Ring

NewsNM note (Spence) - For two years Democrats in the New Mexico Senate have blocked efforts to repeal a law that allows people in the U.S. illegally obtain a driver's license in this state.
Albuquerque Journal - A Polish man has pleaded guilty to federal charges in connection with a New Mexico driver’s license scam aimed at illegal immigrants, U.S. Attorney Kenneth Gonzales announced Friday.

Under an agreement with the U.S. Attorney’s Office in federal court in Albuquerque, Pawel Skladnik, 38, admitted to transporting illegal immigrants into New Mexico and arranging for them to get driver’s licenses with the New Mexico Motor Vehicle Division. He pleaded guilty to a federal charge of transporting illegal immigrants.
Court documents show that Skladnik and Lukasz Koslik, 28, also a Polish national, were indicted in August for helping illegal immigrants not living in New Mexico get state driver’s licenses last year. Read full story here (subscription required): News New Mexico
