Woman in marriage fraud changes plea

U.S. District Court for the NMI visiting Judge David O. Carter scheduled Camacho’s sentencing for Nov. 9.

Camacho’s co-defendant Crisanto Maderal Olivos is scheduled to appear in court for sentencing tomorrow.

Olivos has already pleaded guilty to one count of immigration document fraud.

Camacho and Olivos were separately arrested by federal agents last January. They are out on bail.

The maximum penalty for Camacho’s offense carries a maximum statutory sentence of five years, a maximum term of three years supervised release, a maximum term of five years of probation, a maximum statutory fine of $250,000, and a $100 special assessment fee.

According to the plea agreement, Camacho will “truthfully and completely cooperate” with the U.S. government, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency, and any other law enforcement agencies concerning their investigation on the matter and related activities.

Camacho was represented by her court-appointed attorney Robert Torres while Assistant U.S. Attorney Kirk Schuler served as the prosecutor.

The prosecution said Olivos entered into a fraudulent marriage with a U.S. citizen on Sept. 14, 2001.

Camacho paid the U.S. citizen to marry Olivos, the prosecution said.

Olivos received his “green card” on Jan. 4, 2007.
