Carmelita is the kind of immigrant folks around here complain about.
She is a legal resident, with a valid driver's license. On New Year's Eve she was caught driving while under the influence with a blood alcohol level of .18.
.
I know Carmelita from the store where I work. She comes in to put money on her prepaid plan. She says she works for a local dairy farm.
In court, she told the judge that she's disabled. Her brother supports her and she receives public assistance.
I'm fascinated by Carmelita. Her teeth covered with gold x's and her wide smile. Her stories about working undercover for INS and the local police. I didn't translate those stories for the judge or the public defender.
