Illegal immigrant admitted posing as Border Patrol agent in calculated scheme to disrupt deportations: DOJ

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

A man accused of targeting federal immigration agents and pretending to be one of them is now facing serious prison time after prosecutors say his stunt put law enforcement in danger.

Jaime Ernesto Alvarez-Gonzalez, 53, an illegal immigrant who overstayed a tourist visa decades ago, pleaded guilty Tuesday after admitting he impersonated a U.S. Border Patrol agent to interfere with deportation operations.

Authorities say the impersonation was deliberate and planned.

On Jan. 8, Alvarez-Gonzalez allegedly trailed a real Border Patrol agent through San Diego, Calif., in a black Ford F-150 dressed up to resemble an undercover federal vehicle.

The truck appeared convincing at a glance, outfitted with a Border Patrol sticker, fake radio antennas, a dashboard lightbar and handcuffs hanging from the mirror, despite a license plate frame that misspelled “Federal” as “Ferderal.”

It worked well enough that the real agent believed he was being followed by another federal officer and pulled off his mission for safety.

According to court filings, Alvarez-Gonzalez narrated the encounter in real time, claiming he was “on patrol” as he tracked the agent through city streets. At one point, he pulled alongside the agent at a stoplight and began recording him, later following him into a gas station parking lot and declaring he would stay on his “target.”

Prosecutors say Alvarez-Gonzalez, wearing a face mask and a “thin green line” hat, was actively searching for federal agents involved in ICE and Border Patrol operations.

When agents confronted him, the situation escalated quickly.

Authorities say he shouted obscenities, ordered agents out of the Linda Vista neighborhood, and then called in what he described as his “reinforcements.” Multiple vehicles soon arrived and people began harassing and chasing federal agents onto the highway — an encounter Alvarez-Gonzalez filmed himself.

GOT A TIP?

He was arrested days later. But investigators say the impersonation was only part of the story.

A series of photos shared by prosecutors show Alvarez-Gonzalez handling firearms at a Houston-area shooting range after traveling to Texas, despite being barred from possessing weapons. In one image, he is seen holding a Kalashnikov-style rifle alongside a caption referencing “Pancho Villa” in the United States.

Authorities say other photos place him in front of an actual Border Patrol vehicle and, in a separate shot, near a heavily secured stretch of the U.S.-Mexico border, where he is seen wearing what appears to be a vest and badge while standing by a “No Trespassing” sign.

Investigators say they also recovered an FBI-style badge and found that Alvarez-Gonzalez had access to firearms, including a Glock pistol, along with ammunition tied to weapons he was not legally allowed to possess.

Court documents further allege he tried to cover his tracks. While in custody, authorities say he called an associate and asked that law enforcement-style markings be removed from his vehicles. When agents later searched them, much of the apparent impersonation gear had already been taken off.

Following his guilty plea, Alvarez-Gonzalez now faces a potential sentence of up to 15 years in prison on the firearms charges alone.

Hiker airlifted after terrifying rattlesnake bite on remote trail as incidents surge in area

He revealed that a Thousand Oaks woman who died in March was bitten and killed by a snake while hiking at Wildwood Regional Park. This incident occurred just a few miles from where the hiker was airlifted. Dowd told Fox News Digital that the number of rattlesnake bites and incidents has increased since last year. “However, two of these incidents did not occur on hiking trails or hiking areas. “While the number of rattlesnake attacks has increased in the same time period as last (we had nine in total in 2025), this is still a very low percentage of the total calls that we receive here in the county,” said Mr. He. “These are still serious emergencies that can be traumatizing for those who experience them. We encourage residents and visitors to immediately call 911 if they have been bitten. Police: Tourist dies at luxury resort after cobra from snake show bites him and pulls up his pants.
