Karim Shaaban Kassem Ibrahim, who is now facing charges of forgery and identity theft, came to the attention of the Bernalillo County Sheriff's Department after he applied for a job at Talin Enterprises, a grocery store at Louisiana SE. He applied using the identity of Rami Al Nasa, an Egyptian man living legally in North Carolina.We'll admit that when we read the name Karim Shaaban Kassem Ibrahim we were more than a little concerned that Ibrahim had more than a job at the Talin Market in mind when he assumed the identity of Rami Al Nasa. After all, it's not like Ibrahim made a run for the border and ended up here.
In fact with our history of being attacked by certain people from a certain part of the world, it would be less than prudent to ignore the possibility that someone might exploit our state's propensity to provide drivers licenses to anyone with a pulse for terrorist purposes. Fortunately for us, Rami Al Nasa was worried about protecting his identity even if the state is not worried about protecting us from the identity crime of others.
New Mexico is one of the states that don't require proof of U.S. citizenship to obtain a driver's license...The fact is that the Bernalillo County Sheriff's Department would never have known about the illegal use of Al Nasa's identity here in New Mexico if Al Nasa hadn't contacted them. The Legislature and the Governor in the infinite and suspect wisdom made it legal to provide identification regardless of legal status.
Al Nasa subscribes to a service that alerts him whenever a credit check is run in his name, and was alerted when Talin Enterprises ran such a check. He contacted the sheriff's department and said he had never applied for a job in New Mexico.
Our Eyes Behind the Badge tell us that they stop holders of these legal illegal IDs on a nightly basis. It's hard to believe that all of these folks are innocently trying to make their way regardless of their illegal status. It's more likely that at least a few of them have shall we say less than honorable intentions. With that in mind, is it really any surprise that Albuquerque is experiencing a crime wave led by gangs?
Bernalillo County Sheriff Darren White said New Mexico's lax laws on driver's licenses are making the state a magnet for illegal immigrants.In some cases the blind eye that New Mexico turns towards identification verification aids a struggling immigrant simply yearning to breathe free. In others, it aids less honorable immigrants in their desire to do harm to the very people that the state is sworn to protect. In both cases, the State of New Mexico is aiding criminals in the commission of a crime... that of being in this country without permission.
"We attracted sex offenders when we didn't have a Megan's Law, and now we're attracting people who are here illegally because of how easy it is to get a driver's license," he said. "I would strongly urge the Legislature to revisit it to see if there should be some changes."

Race card about to be played in 3 ....2....1
Comment #1, you've got to be kidding.
The race card starts and has always been on the 11th floor. Read the stats!!
It's not about race, it's about being in this country illegally. I am so sick of hearing race this prejudice that, people who grew up in this country had the same advantages as the rest of us. But when you come into the country illegally, you are NOT the same, you have not had the same advantages. I can see why it would be a very attractive reason to come here. At the same time, when you have not had the same advantages, the same schooling, the same level of education, then when you move into a society that has, you are a drag on that economy, crime stats go up, and property values go down. It has nothing to do with racism or prejudice. IF the people that were here illegally were here legally, got an education and made something of themselves, I don't give a shit what race they are. The point is, come to the country LEGALLY.
Yeah actually I was kidding, it seemed really obvious to me when I wrote it - sorry
Comment #2, you took the words right out of my mouth. The numbers don't lie!
We are also seeing an influx of east and west coast gang members because we do not have a three strikes law. New Mexico is turning into a haven for criminals because of the liberal laws and judges. Crime is on the rise, it's time for the elected officials to take action to protect the citizens.
I think its absurd that we, as officers, arent allowed to ask if the subjects are here legally. Its so nice that people who are here illegally (not paying taxes, but reaping the benefits) are enjoying more benefits than the citizens.our judicial system is a joke.
New Mexico shouuld just become the north most state of Mexico. It is almost like we are not a part of the United States, we have become a dumbing ground for criminals. There is no law and if you are wanted for a crime in another state, go to New Mexico. If you are an illegal or gang member, go to New Mexico. Our great politations and judges have made sure that you will only do eight years if you kill one of or tax paying residents. And if you are not allowed in our country, just stay, we will take care of you.
Yeah all of what is said is true but you don't see the Mayor without his security...
Speaking of the Mayor he was @ the 101th graduating APD cadet class and was it me or did he totally dis' his DCOPs and Chief in his speech? He told the cadets to enjoy all the pictures that are being taken at this moment 'cuz this is the best they will ever look--and said someday you'll look as bad as all these guys behind me and he pointed to the 3DCOPs, the Chief & Bowdich. Even if you personally don't like that bunch, what he said was totally out of line and very disrespectful. Marty is such a troll--that, and when Judge Ross Sanchez was swearing in the new officers he referred to them as "police service aids"? WTF?? Better check your paystubs!!
The mayor at the APD graduation:
As long as I can remember he's never shown up to an AFD graduation, at least the many I've been too.
When Bakas was Public Safety Chief, a position that hasn't been filled because it never existed in the first place, Marty would send Nick to speak.
Nick always had the same planned speech. Basically if he had to do his career over again he would have been a firefighter instead of a cop. Then he would refer to the fire chief as the police chief and the firefighters as police officers! "If he only had a brain".
Albuquerque's leadership past and present something to be very proud of!
WOW....the leadership in this city is sad & sorry...needs a good house-cleaning. I pray that Marty goes and takes all his corrupt minions with him him. WE NEED A CHANGE in leadership!
There wasn't an ex stripper and an ex dispatcher with fake boobs graduating from AFD so why would he show up to AFD's grad.
fake boobs ex stripper? whats her 20?
Agree,,,,a lot of scum is relocating to New Mexico for it's cheap housing and it's drug addicted population. NM is paradise for gangs like ms-13 that run drugs. My mother lives in small northern nm town and lives alone and is terrified to call the cops on her drug dealing neighbor.
Not real boobs? that's obvious! But this chick has a lot of compasion. APD could use that!!
Just like every woman in APD we have to prove ourselves to the day we retire. Our only choices are to be the B, do, or if we don't comply with the advances then we're of the other's.
How about, we want to be cops? And good ones! But we'll be feeling the microscope our entire careers. Really doesn't matter what a great cop we can be... it has to be WHO's the first that can do us!!
Sick F*&%#'s
Give this chick a chance, boob job or not. We all want to look better. IG: viagra, hair extentions, hormone enjections...
It's not just a chick thing.
Well at least i know i didnt say i disliked the boobs! Bring em on! Or better yet bring em out!
Albuq. is fast becoming a gangsta's paradise. APD gang unit does what it can to stop these scum, but they're a small unit against a tsunami of criminal drug addicted socio-psychopaths. Albuquerque (& New Mexico) is their haven as being a gang member is not against the law here where they feel empowered & safe. I wish the police could entrap and ensnare them using every trick in the book to bring them down.
Viagra? What's his 20?
not saying there's anything wrong with boob jobs or strippers, just making a point to the poor AFD person who is mad that little Marty doesn't show up at their graduations. shoot, don't we all wish we looked better! some of us just choose to be happy with what God gave us, that's all. and to the above poster, you are right it's too bad for the female 34's who choose to give the rest a bad name by sleeping around. oh well
So if female 34's sleep around it gives all the females a bad rap.
If the male 34's sleep around what does that give them?? High 5's from all the guys! That's just the point of the boy's club I'm talking about.
Let's just hope they're wearing gloves!
Hope the "male" married 34's sleeping around, (whoring around) are wearing "gloves", so they're not bringing it (all) to their wives!!!! family etc..
So we have 1 dude Paul, doing a 13 yo, ya think that's the only thing going on. About 1% of the media discover's the small % of our crappy activities. And then we blame the media for finding out, through public informtion, duh. What a corrupt organization! And isn't it suppose to start from the top----down, ha ha ha ha ha...
Don't like dissing the dept. but the sub-standard, and hiring back the ol'fucks is really messing up our proud (hee hee) dept. IG: too much trust with the Hyde dude. Why were they so nieve? Because thngs have changed since they were trained!
New criminals (MP-13) we need new cops to deal with it. Burning people alive is their MO.
Sorry, get rid of the fat f@#k hire backs on the street, unless they're having to abide by the strict stadards the street cop has too!
Marty & Ray, if it's about numbers put these well qualified guy's in desk jobs. God knows crimes againts children could use some manpower!!
