HAMILTON, Ohio -- An estimated $600,000 of fraudulent documents where seized by the Butler County Sheriff Office in what is believed to be the largest bust of its kind in state history, according to investigatos.
Three suspected illegal immigrants — two from Mexico and one from Guatemala —were arrested on 18 felony counts for creating fraudulent documents in Fairfield and Hamilton, according to sheriff's officials.
"We've been saying all along that this stuff was happening," Sheriff Richard K. Jones said. "What we have today is the largest fraudulent document case that we are aware of in the state of Ohio, if not one of the largest in the U.S."
