Fake US security IDs found

New York - Police have seized more than 1 000 fake badges and identity documents from 35 different United States security agencies, says the department of homeland security (DHS).

The badges and IDs from federal, state and city agencies, including the federal bureau of unvestigation, the US secret service, the drug enforcement agency and the New York police department, were found at the home of Sergio Khorosh after investigators traced 100 fake badges shipped to him from Taiwan.

Police also found several weapons, New York police uniforms and small quantities of marijuana and cocaine in the apartment and were trying to determine who were the potential buyers of the fake IDs and what use they were intended for.

Martin Ficke, of the DHS' customs and immigration enforcement said: "It's part of our investigation."

He said: "In any real serious ID check you have a badge and an ID to go with.

"But, we don't think that the public is scrutinising as much as we are in law enforcement."

Since it's in New York, they might have to give all those IDs back 'cause that judge ruled that they can't take away fake drivers licenses obtained by fradulent means.  Why is it ok for one ID issuer to take back ids when another can't?

That dude should sue, and with legal genius Hillary running the state, he might win.
