“If immigration officials wanted the Worthington raid to send a message to those selling fake documents, it didnt reach a group of four young men in the Lake St. K Mart parking lot. The site is a notorious spot for scoring false IDs. It was even mentioned in a New York Times article last summer.

When an MPR reporter approached the men, one offers a one-word question — “mica?” which is Spanish slang for an ID that might include a drivers license, a permanent residency card or a Social Security number.”
