Hooray! They both go to jail!

that's awesome. too bad the kid didn't do it at age 17 though. the fact that he's 19 probably will result in harsher punishment.

ouch

edt: but the kid didn't steal the thief's identify, he only claimed it back. he did steal 8k though...

Although he had not stolen money outright from Canales, Ortega-Luna amassed debts of about $208,000 for purchases that included his house, a 2005 Toyota truck and 1990 Honda car, Shaver said

wth. he comes to america illegally and the 2nd thing he does after stealing someone's identity is to start racking up debt? I'll never understand those types of people...

Chrobak said Canales has had trouble getting income-tax refunds, with the IRS balking at issuing a check because his Social Security number was coming up in separate records.

8 years and this was still an issue? :Q

Hey, it's the USA! Where everyone's in debt, he was just trying to fit in.

I actually feel kind of bad for the kid, I wouldn't be surprised to find out that he had been trying for years to get the identity issue corrected and all the while Luna (the original border crossing thief) was jacking up his credit. I hope the kid gets off light.
