This story is representative of just how desperate the political left and media have become over the issue of deporting illegal aliens.
41-year-old Yuriana Julia Pelaez Calderon, of South Los Angeles, who is an illegal alien, participated in a scheme to falsify a rather elaborate story claiming to have been kidnapped by ICE agents. The woman and a group of co-conspirators, including her lawyer, fabricated a story and held press conferences claiming she was abducted by ICE agents. The entire story was false, and she was arrested for fabricating the scheme [DOJ Announcement Here]
🚨 WOW! An illegal in California has been charged for STAGING A KIDNAPPING & attempting to FRAME ICE
The “kidnapping” hoax is DIRECTLY out of the Democrats’ playbook. Their rhetoric enabled this.

DOJ – LOS ANGELES – An illegal alien from Mexico has been charged in a federal criminal complaint with orchestrating a phony kidnapping – which she blamed on federal agents or people working with federal agents – to generate public sympathy and solicit donations, the Justice Department announced today.
[…] According to an affidavit filed with the complaint filed Wednesday, an attorney representing Calderon’s family held a press conference on June 30 to announce that Calderon had reportedly been kidnapped five days earlier at a Jack in the Box restaurant parking lot in downtown Los Angeles and brought to San Ysidro, where “she was presented to [a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement] staffer” and “presented with voluntary self-deportation paperwork.” The attorney then said Calderon refused to sign the paperwork and demanded to speak to a judge and a lawyer. In response, “she was punished” and was sent to a warehouse in an undisclosed location.
The press conference garnered media attention and stoked fear in the community. Meanwhile, Calderon’s daughter set up a GoFundMe page, requesting $4,500 and stating that Calderon “was taken by masked men in an unmarked vehicle…when she was on her way to work.” According to the complaint, this entire story was fabricated.

Hopefully her and her family will be departed.
Will they be “dearly departed”?
however it happens, just GET THEM OUT of my country…. I don’t care how they go as long as they are GONE
Amen and amen. GETTEMOUTTAHERE enough is enough!
And stay out!!!
Deport the lawyer who was in on it , too. Or at the very least, charge and prosecute the he11 out of him or her.
Dearly deported. . .not dearly departed.
First the one, then the other.
Dearly departed is fine with me.
Yeah we don’t care how they departed as long as they are GONE from our soil.
Attorney should be disbarred as well as charged
Agree that the lawyers should be held responsible for any public costs as a result of failing to perform due diligence!!!
Hopefully, YULI and her family will be!
There is no way this person planned anything more complicated than rolling up her corn tortilla.
That is funny!
And all those involved including the Lawyer charged with crimes!
Not “departed”, but deported. When does the next train leave for Juarez??
LMAO! I like it! Departed: Past tense. Gone, Adios! GTFO! MAGA!
On September 30, 1996, President Bill Clinton signed the “ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION REFORM AND IMMIGRANT RESPONSIBILITY ACT OF 1996” Under Sec 302, it states that illegal aliens can be “removed from the United States without further hearing or review”.
Just to put an explanation point on this comment … an ACT signed by the president = a LAW passed by both houses of Congress.
An interesting note, in 1996:
Yes, President Bill Clinton signed the ACT.
Newt Gingrich was speaker of the House.
Trent Lott was Senate Majority Leader.
So …. there was obviously a few democrats needed to pass this ACT, to get Clinton to sign it.
FAFO!
FAFO
“If convicted of all charges, Calderon would face a statutory maximum sentence of five years in federal prison for conspiracy and up to five years in federal prison on the false statements charge.”
Why wasn’t she deported? She refused to sign the self deportation papers. Now we have to spend more tax dollars on this criminal.
It didn’t happen, it was a money scam!
What, exactly, didn’t happen?
Can you go back and read the article
The lawyer should be arrested also…
Yes! And anyone who employs an illegal should also be charged and prosecuted. There is already a federal law which authorizes doing that! Why don’t they use it??

They used to
Because it happened in “The Kingdom of Newscum.”
It was his predecessor “moonbat brown” that kicked it into overdrive.
If they are illegal invaders from another country then they are not from S.Los Anywhere in the U.S of A.
Not too smart are they? Our little “friends” from south of the border who just want to come here for a better life.
“They are not sending their very best”
Come here illegally for a better life, by taking ours.
Very good point! Not an asset!
“Lawyer” key word there! These crazy liberal “non lawyers” are perpetuating this. Immediately disbarred and charged with fraud. They are like animals checking every inch of fence for a way to beat our system.
Our system of justice is severely lacking prosecutions for attorneys, politicians, law enforcement in the higher positions like FBI,CIA. Privilege seems to be the ideal not accountability.
So the Godly twist on this. 2peter 2:4 God did not spare the angels who sinned but cast them into hell…
They had all the knowledge, and held immediately accountable. The privilege is only a blessing in its use for others.
The Democrat Socialist/Communist will stop at nothing to get what they want. Poor lady was probably given big money or “things” that she wanted in order for her to participate.
I say go after those who recruited her to lie. Every person who is seen returning to their home country is one more lost vote….let them cry.
I have seen a few stories of those school shootings as well that make me believe someone was paid to do a job.
They have long wanted as many Americans as possible to believe that the 2nd amendment is our enemy.
The list goes on and on….
People are slowly catching on, albeit too slowly IMHO.
Every single 4am talking point distributed via their *fake* news mockingbird media is aimed at destroying our Constitutional Republic, one brick/ amendment at a time.
The New World Order *reset* is the biggest threat of our time. Yet people continually consult *fake* news to get their daily fix of the propaganda that facilitates it. Apparently it’s all they know. This is where spirituality comes in. Those with eyes to see and ears to hear are not so easily distracted and led astray.
As far as the global assault on nationalism in general and our Constitutional Republic, specifically: Even though their false flags touch on several fronts.. ie immigration, 2A, free elections, free speech & assembly, free press, unreasonable search and seizure.. our enemies both foreign and domestic are doing all of it essentially to accumulate (redistribute) wealth. This is why our President has wisely chosen to *prioritize* the resurgence of US main street economy to rev those monetary incentives in a new direction that benefits all sovereign nations.
From there, the rest neatly falls into place. Disclaimer: No free country will be harmed by MAGA.
#FOCUS 🇺🇸
Well stated!!
Home schooling is the only way to break the cycle.
If the lawyer helped perpetuate this fraud, not only should they be prosecuted, but also disbarred and never allowed into a courtroom again unless as a defendant.
They should be imprisoned for as long as the law will allow.
Well everyone involved should be charged , lawyer included. No Mercy for Lying
Yep, it’s a crime of “moral turpitude.”
I’m old enough to remember when CA was proposing to license attorneys who had STOLEN into our country … clearly was unAmerican, but, like everything else, there was no stopping it.
These people didn’t come up with this on their own….who or better what…politicians from the left…the Democrat Party helped these people come up with this farce.
I’ll point the finger squarely at Commie Mayor Bass
Be’s a shitch. Pig latin.
This kidnapping story is preposterous.
Who on earth would kidnap such a miserable woman?
She evidently has delusions of grandeur,
Cold anger.
Next time I’m arrested I’m going to claim I was kidnapped.
Ahh next time? LOL
Now she wants a thousand dollars and a airplane ticket to paradise.
…..to country formerly known as S W A Z I L A N D ……??
Best to tie her to a rail car and send it south of the border
No cash for criminals
Be sure to read the entire story on the DOJ site, linked in the article. She made up the story and her family knew about it. Not sure about the attorney. I’m sure he protected himself by telling her how to relate the story to him. I’d bet he’s working for some immigration attorney firm, aka Democrats. Read the entire thing, pretty remarkable.
Illegals come here ILLEGALLY to prey off of the U.S. economy and our Citizens in any way they can, so why does it surprise anyone that they never hesitate to break any and all of our laws for their personal gain?
The Left can’t help themselves. Everything they do is illegal and underhanded. This just widens the net for prosecution, eg, her lawyer.🤣👍💋
ICE is so bad, according to these fools, that intricate lies must be made up to prove how bad ICE is.
Haha, that sounds just like Jussie Smollett, America is so racist he had to fake a racist event. (And it’s a travesty that his conviction was reversed and he didn’t serve time – and is even being “rehabilitated” by Hollyweird.)
Come on now, you knew he wasn’t going to pay.
“If convicted of all charges, Calderon would face a statutory maximum sentence of five years in federal prison for conspiracy and up to five years in federal prison on the false statements charge.”
What!!?? Prison? Just get her out of the country!! We’ll probably have to pay for a sex change or 3 or 4 pregnancies over 5 years.
Pregnancies? Nah.
aint nobody kidnapped that
Sounds like they need to be punished before they get their butt deported.
The Democrats drag up (or pull down) the dregs of society and use them as tools to advance their insane ideology.
These illegal criminals that were let into this country by Obama and Biden are the true scum of the earth. Every single one of them with there families mama Sita, kids and abuela need to GO. Get the F out.
I love how the Fake Liberal news call them migrants. They are illegal immigrant criminals. And they all absolutely HATE America. They wont even learn to speak English. They wish Mexico won the Mexican/American war. They are truly the scum of the earth.
These POS thought for 30 years they were sticking it to America and getting back at our country because we kicked there butts in the Mexican/American war.
And just to add insult to injury when they come here they bring their stupid Mexican flag and wave it in our faces as if it has some meaning. That alone is grounds to put them on the first train back to where they came from.
Deport the scumbag lawyer with her
When it comes to conspiracies like this one, nine-out-of-ten times there is a Democrat office holder in woodpile somewhere.
For the barristers out there: Do donations from various states to the GoFundMe page constitute an interstate aspect to the crime for the co-conspirators? Does that take it into “double jeopardy where your scores can really change!” ?
She’s only 41?
Sounds like Juicy Smollet
Send her to Djibouti.
I hear the weather there is quite nice this time of year. Additionally, it’s quite safe.
