Illegal Alien Implicated in Murder Faces Deportation

An illegal alien allegedly involved in a murder last week motivated by a $500,000 insurance policy is facing deportation to Mexico. Thought to be a US citizen, it turns out that Jose Quintero-Figueroa was born in Mexico. After gaining unauthorized passage to the United States, Quintero-Figueroa was sent to prison for aggravated assault. Upon release he convinced federal immigration officials that he was actually a US citizen, a false status he held until today.
