EXAMPLE#1 - (Chrismas at 5:47 PM April 25, 2011 Of course a person impersonating a police officer would have a squeaky clean record. First, no one would charge him because police do not charge other police. Second, he was making alot of money, and had a sweet deal being able to arrest and charge anyone he wanted to. I just worry; if he could SNEAK accross the boarder, pay for someone's STOLEN IDENTITY, use someone's stolen identity toIMPERSONATE A POLICE OFFICER, DETAIN and ARREST legal American citizens, he could SELL HIS POWER to the highest bidder. Much like our ELECTED OFFICIALS who took BRIBES in the VECO scandal. Otherwise he was a stellar person?) EXAMPLE#2(Allstar at 9:49 AM April 26, 2011 We filed a complaint against this officer for pushing an old lady and they did nothing to him. They told us what a good officer he was and that he would not do that. We told the APD chief that 3 people witnessed it and they told us the public believes their cops and will not believe that.)

This cop is pathetic. He likes to pick on young teenagers and lie about them just to see them get into trouble... OOo wait didn't he just get arrested for lying about who he is. this is why cops get a bad rep. first a rapist and now he steals someones identity.And they say criminals are bad. Get it right people.

10 Russian spies were caught last year. The female became a pinup model. Interviews revealed they were told to seek "positions of influence". If you think other countries are not trying to attack you, ask New Yorkers what happens when you start to deny. Mexican drug cartels are here for much the same reasons. Why are people denying the corruption is rampant. Why do you want to divide and make yourselves weaker? You have to be active in your government to remain free. This scum is, yet another example of those who want to control you.

Child abuse, rape, identity theft, lying under oath. And that is just our police department!! 11 legislators, 2 senators, a mayor, and multiple community leaders do not get caught taking bribes without support. If you can see all of this and STILL put full faith in the department of elections, you are inviting the tyranny you do not want. People! Organized Crime has come here for the oil, money and power. We can no longer keep looking the other way. Its going to take unity, and activism to defeat it. Keep ignoring it, and the stronger it grows. You can run to other states, but you will not escape having to defend yourselves. Stop accepting it!

The headline stated, Passpot Fraud", his very presents in this country is a fraud, his activities on the police force is a fraud. THe city of anchorage will see many law suits in the coming weeks. And a city official said, "But he is a good police officer." I suppose if one of the other police officers were on the take it would be okay as long as he is a "Good Police Officer". A wrong is a wrong, one can not up hold the laws if his very presents is breaking the law.

HE SHOULD BE BROUGHT BACK TO HIS COUNTRY. HE IS A RACIST WHEN I GOT HIT BY A 15 YRS OLD Spanish kid with no license no insurance he cited me instead, after he talked with the kids dad in Spanish. I brought it to court but now i know why he did what he did as a illegal traffic cop.

How come Alaskasuperstation isn't covering this story? Maybe a little pro open borders?

As strict as they like to claim they are about accepting candidates to be police officers and this guy doesn't even get an adequate background check. He lied on every government form he filled out whether it was State or Federal. I'm sure he bought a firearm other than his service weapon. There's another federaol crime!

Wouldnt impersonating an officer be a serious offence (considering the public trust given them)? I do not understand why passport fraud is the main charge. Who has allowed this to happen. We are not done investigating I hope. Man! The corruption within APD has really suprised me. It is very scary. I wonder how many people were convicted based on his testimony. Dont be fooled this is VERY serious oversight by the APD

Who cares if Obama is a citizen or not? I'll tell ya. Any real American. All the other candidates proved they are citizens. Why can't Obama? Why has he spent millions to keep his history hidden? I haven't a clue as to whether he is a citizen but if it's proven some day that this country has been the victim of the greatest hoax ever perpetrated then it matters. Why take the chance. He's already proven to be the worst president in Americas History.

@ brian. Get your head out of Trumps behind and get off the birther thing and stick to the subject. Besides half the Politicians in the country have illegals working for them, and probably most Municipalities also.

Sounds like this brian guy has his head up Trumps Bum. Probably half of the Politicians in the country have illegals working for them not to mention all those rich folks that have illegal gardners and domestics. It would not suprise me to find out that a great many municapalities around the Nation have Illegals on the payrolls too.
