Illegal alien stole ID of Queens murder victim
From 1010WINS:
A top-ranking security official at Newark Liberty Airport is expected in court today after being arrested on charges he stole the identity of a murder victim to get hired.
For the past 17 years, Nigerian immigrant Bimbo Olumuyiwa Oyewole has sailed through background checks by the Port Authority using the name Jerry Thomas, police said.
But the 54-year-old’s secret is now out thanks to an anonymous tip that led to his arrest.
Oyewole somehow obtained the birth certificate and Social Security number of Thomas, who was murdered in Queens on July 20, 1992, officials said.
Oyewole used Thomas’s identity to secure a driver’s license, security guard license, an airport ID and even credit cards, according to authorities.
At the time of his arrest Monday, Oyewole was in charge of 30 other security guards and had access to airport tarmacs and passenger plans.
Oyewole is actually an illegal Nigerian immigrant with at least four other aliases who entered the country in 1989, investigators said.
Sources tell CBS 2 authorities are concerned about the identity scam itself. They are worried the scam could have been used by thousands, including by some who might by terrorist “sleeper agents” working at critical locations throughout the country.

All one has to do is check old newspapers for children born and died about the same time, get a copy of the birth certificate, get a social security card, then get a driver's license and you are now a new man! Heard the person that the movie "Catch me if you can" was about and that's how he did it. He nows would you believe works for the FBI!!!

How many buddies did this professional criminal sneak into Queens with stolen IDs to over all these years ?
I'm guessing 1000s not including drugs, diamonds and other contraband.
Where were the feds ?
"sources"
who are these sources? the ratings hungry producers?
We would be lucky if all illegals were simply looking to work and live a quiet trouble free life.
There's no threat here, just a hyped up story.
This is why I espouse enforcement of federal laws at the State and local law enforcement levels to apprehend and detain illegal aliens. The Patriot Act was to create an electronic National Identity card for citizens and legal residents (legal immigrants)to quickly weed out the criminals. The card would be used at all transportation centers, for hiring, obtaining State documents such as Driver licenses and opening financial accounts. This card eliminates or reduces fraud by potential terrorists, illegals and citizen criminals.
Leftist pols refer to him not as "illegal alien" but as "undocumentaed immigrant."
"Oyewole" is still a John Doe as far I am concerned. The time has come for a national id card system with photo, fingerprint, and other biometric data.
O. M. G.
National ID cards? Somewhere, Nikita Kruschev is laughing his oversized butt off. On a tour of the US in the Eisenhower administration, he asked with amazement, "Where are the soldiers on the streets?" Give us time, Nik. We're headed in that direction.
Anon No. 6:
We do?
Bring in the Feds! Oh wait... Bring in the Queens DA!
we pay taxes for this? it is a typical scenario for illegal aliens to use other people's SS numbers & ID's. all they have to do is check ID's of people getting off the 7 train. this SOB is just doing what illegal aliens do.
duuuuuh all he had to do was go to the social security's death registry and take any male name as their list was COMPLETE with their date of birtyh,city/state etc etc and a number.
I don't know if their list remains accessible online in 2012.
anyway,all they had to do was that e_verify action and find out.
but bimBo didn't have to go there as it is also alleged he had this man's ID prior to the man becoming a murder victim,that's why the 1st reports simply stated that he was not connected to this murder
Hey look - National ID cards based on birth-certificate or legal entry naturalization is an effective tool to combat illegals sucking in all our tax dollars for their health care - education, housing, food stamps, off books wages etc that you pay for!
I want to rid myself of these leeches of people who are climbing on my back because they sneak in here for a better life? No way Jose! If they arrive here like all others legally by waiting for entry _ years and years in some case then welcome to the USA. If you shortcut the system by tunneling in your a criminal! Thus the notion and principal of the right to bear arms - these people are stealing from me and I need to protect myself from the their next level of criminality as they get bolder.
You will not get away with a bogus Kruschev quote. The usual expression of this stupid objection is "Papiere, bitte" - and every cop becomes Gestapo.
A real id simply increases the difficulty of committing fraud. It is nothing more than that.
The pro-illegal immigrant movement is degenerating into a pro-fraud movement.

Agreed: Our SS card was an individual's ID for years. But it became inadequate and abused by criminals for various offenses. All we need to today is a digital ID with a secure PIN to substitute the SS card with a national identity card. Those who don't fear it are in essence legal and will want to have a secure means to provide thier SS to anyone who needs it to work, travel, school & benefits. This would eliminate fraud and fraudsters like illegals stealing from us tax payers!
