THE GREATEST GODDESS JILL asked:

WICHITA, Kan. — A federal grand jury has indicted eight illegal immigrants for stealing tax refund checks from Texas workers and using phony IDs to cash them in Kansas.

Authorities say the immigrants from Mexico and Honduras used fraudulent Texas driver’s licenses bearing the names of the legal workers whose refund checks were stolen to cash them in Wichita and Hutchinson.

The indictment handed up Wednesday charges the immigrants with conspiracy to defraud the United States, illegal re-entry, fraud, and possession and use of fraudulent documents.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Brent Anderson says the dozen or so tax refund checks identified so far in the case were mailed to apartments in Austin, Houston and Dallas. He says federal authorities are contacting the victims.

An attorney for one of the men said he couldn’t comment until he knew more about the charges. Attorneys for the others did not immediately return calls for comment.
