Alexander Brewer, False Identification, Massachusetts 2013

A former Massachusetts RMV employee has been sentenced for his role in producing false identification documents.

Alexander Brewer, 25, of Boston, was sentenced by Senior U.S. District Judge Mark L. Wolf to 24 months of probation and a $3,000 fine.

In May 2013, Brewer pleaded guilty to conspiracy to produce false identification documents. From December 2011 through December 2012, Brewer issued Massachusetts driver’s licenses to individuals who presented legitimate Puerto Rican identity documents in an identity other than their own to obtain driver’s licenses for the purpose of concealing their true identities.

Alben, Superintendent of the Massachusetts State Police; David W. Hall, Special Agent in Charge of the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Diplomatic Security, Boston Field Office; and Cheryl Garcia, Acting Special Agent in Charge of the U.S. Department of Labor, Office of Inspector General, New York Regional Office, made the announcement today.

The case is being prosecuted by Eugenia M. Carris of Ortiz’s Public Corruption Unit.

Brewer’s actions were discovered and he was brought to justice in a timely manner, ensuring public safety and maintaining trust in government institutions.

The sentencing serves as a reminder of the severity of the consequences for those who engage in such activities.
