Morning Note

Ohio police arrested Venezuelan illegal immigrant Anthony Emmanuel Labrador Sierra for identity fraud on Monday. The 24-year-old father allegedly posed as a minor and enrolled himself in a local high school.

According to the case’s police report, Labrador originally contacted Perrysburg Schools in November 2023, claiming "he had been homeless and was an immigrant from Venezuela." He became a student two months later, entered the school’s soccer and swimming teams, and joined a local family through adoption later in the year.

The mirage crumbled when a woman contacted Labrador’s new guardians claiming he was "actually a 24-year-old and he was the father of her child." She also shared a photo of a driver's license she said was his, which stated his true birthday as March 27, 2001.

Imagine being a parent with a daughter at the high school and learning she unknowingly roamed the halls with a grown man who had already fathered a child. No bueno.
