HICKORY, N.C. — Eyewitness News Reporter Rene Romo spent the day in Hickory tracking down more details on the man arrested for having a blue light and driving an SUV that resembles a law enforcement vehicle, both felonies.

N.C. Highway Patrol troopers have now contacted several federal and state agencies because they are afraid what Milan Krivsky is not telling them.

Krivsky, who’s from the Czech Republic, and is charged with operating a vehicle that resembled a law enforcement vehicle after first being pulled over for speeding along I-85 on Saturday, is expected to make his first court appearance on Monday.

Troopers said the SUV Krivsky was driving had been outfitted with blue lights, video cameras mounted to the dashboard, a siren, a radar gun, and even a department of homeland security sticker.

Several local and federal agencies are now investigating where Krivsky has been and what he’s been up to.Records from a Hickory motel show he checked into the Royal Inn on January 30th and checked out Feb. 6.

“He kept to himself,” said motel employee Andy Hall after recognizing Krivsky from a Gaston County jail mugshot.
“He didn’t want anybody around.”

Hall said that he entered Krivsky’s room to clean up and noticed a lot of electronics, some of which were covered up by blankets.

State troopers also said Krivsky recently signed a two-year lease agreement at a Newton apartment complex. Eyewitness News went to that apartment complex on Sunday. The management office is closed until Monday.

GASTONIA, N.C. — Eyewitness News has learned that a European man who was allegedly driving a sport utility vehicle outfitted like a police car has been accused of eluding police in the past.

Now Gaston County authorities have asked the Center of Missing and Exploited Children to check and see if Milan Krivsky or his unusual Jeep appears in their databases in Missouri or West Virginia. Those are the last two states where he is known to have lived before he was pulled by troopers in Gaston County this weekend.

Gaston County troopers said they called police in Lewisburg, W.V., and learned that officers there suspected Krivsky was producing fake vehicle registrations. They said after they questioned him, Krivsky disappeared and his room was professionally cleaned. Police said they found out that his apartment had externally mounted cameras allowing him to see people just outside.

On Saturday authorities seized dash cameras, a siren, a blue light and other electronic equipment from Krivsky’s Jeep Grand Cherokee. Federal Bureau of Investigation agents plan to go through his laptop computer. Troopers said it contained pornographic images of what could be minor boys.

Krivsky was stopped near Belmont on Saturday afternoon for speeding on Interstate 85, the Highway Patrol said. That’s when, they said, they discovered equipment that made the Jeep look like an undercover police vehicle, complete with a Department of Homeland Security sticker on the back window.

They said what was even more disturbing was what they found in a duffle bag — gloves, a box cutter and duck tape.

Troopers said information found in the SUV show that Krivsky has traveled the country and has worldwide connections. They said he did not reveal that he was a citizen of the Czech Republic. They found that information on his passport and visa.

Krivsky is being kept in jail on an immigration hold.

GASTONIA — A trooper in Gaston County said he stopped a man for speeding on Interstate 85, but discovered a lot more once looking inside the vehicle.  The trooper said Milan Krivsky had identification from several states and a West Virginia registration.

When the trooper looked inside the SUV, he says he found a radar gun, video monitor, digital video and audio equipment, laptops, cell phones and blue lights. Other items found inside, such as various kinds of tape and cutting devices, could also be a cause for concern.

“There’s a lot of disturbing things we found inside of the vehicle,” said Trooper J.J. Letcavage. “I would definitely fear the worst, anywhere from a possible abduction to physical harm. I have no doubt in my mind that that would be a capability of this guy.

Letcavage continued, “We found three different types of duck tape as well as box cutters…along with black gloves.  That’s definitely a scary find.”

There was also a Department of Homeland Security sticker on the rear of the SUV, and a CIA button inside.

The trooper says the FBI, Immigration Control and DHS have all been notified. Krivsky is charged with speeding, operating a fictitious law enforcement vehicle and possession of a blue light.

The towing company, Heafner’s Towing and Recovery, granted News 14 Carolina access to the vehicle in question.

Lewis M. Fetterman Jr. (58) was killed and Joni-Fay Watts Fetterman (56) was injured when a vehicle driven by Alejandro Antonio Rivas, an illegal alien, crossed the highway and collided head-on.

Rivas, who also died at the scene, was thought to have been drunk at the time of the accident.

In typical government fashion, they sit on their thumbs regarding important issues, and someone ends up paying a high price for it, usually resulting in death.

When police went to a home to serve a warrant to Rafael Wilfredo Rivas for charge of altering the title of a vehicle. They were lucky to have been informed upfront that they may involved in a shootout with 13 illegal aliens who were members of the MS-13 gang.

When SWAT entered the home, they were indeed greeted with gunfire. Riva’s own brother shot at the cops. Bullet fragments struck one officer who was not injured.  Riva’s brother is in critical condition after the police were forced to fire back.

Twelve individuals were taken into custody and all but one was found to be in the country illegally.  Rivas was one of those illegally in the country.

In much the same way that a bad marriage is not healthy if one partner is in it for what they can get out of it, and the other is co-dependent on that partner. Illegal immigration is unhealthy for the co-dependent country involved.

Almost daily we hear how our crashing economy is causing an exodus of illegals returning to their homelands when the work, money, and handouts runs out. Many of these are represented in the media as hardship stories built to display the “poor undocumented worker”, “poor businesses”, and in some cases “poor community” who are being affected by the loss. While no one can dispute the effect this loss has on those elements, they are in essence, no different then those who are co-dependent marriage partners who suddenly find themselves struggling to learn to survive.

What needs to be understood, and understood firmly, is that illegal immigrants are not here “for better or for worse”. They will not hang around when this country struggles. They will not hang around if the country falls. Their loyalty is not to this country at all and they will return home to the place their loyalty lies, or move on to another country that has what they desire. In this case money, work, and someone to take care of them.

American citizens and many legal immigrants have a deep loyalty to the United States. No matter how hard it gets in the nation, they will hold on, they will struggle through, and they will work to improve the situation of the home they love unconditionally. “For better or for worse” is not even a thought for them, it’s a way of life.

Just as one would not support a loved on, or friend in an unhealthy relationship. America needs to not support this unhealthy relationship that’s been created by illegal immigrants and their advocates. Americans need to support and advocate for healthy relationships with Citizens and legal immigrants who had a deep unseated love for this country. Who will stick with her through thick and thin, no matter how thin it gets. It is that, and that alone that makes for a healthy relationship and a healthy nation.
As for the “woe is me” tales, well just like the co-dependent partner learns to live again. These co-dependent individuals, businesses, and communities will also learn to live again. In many cases they will learn to be stronger, stabler, and healthier then before when they were in the unhealthy relationship. In some cases they might not ever break the bonds of co-dependency but above all they will learn what the signs of co-dependency are and be able to advocate against it, while helping awake other co-dependents to be able to survive the “life without” too.

Hispanic exodus is under way
Workers leave Lee as jobs disappear
The News Press
March 9, 2008

In this case, cold, hard statistics don’t tell the story.

“I am not aware of anyone who would track that locally,” said Glen Solier, business development specialist for the Lee County Department of Economic Development.

“Those people are off the grid. Undocumented,” said Susanna Patterson, economic analyst for the Florida Agency for Workforce Innovation.

But the oh-so-human snapshots of everyday living are revealing.

Like a weekend soccer league down from 32 teams to 25 because more than 100 players have had to leave.

Or a church that has cut two Sunday services to one because about 200 former members have returned to their homeland.

Or the western-wear clothier who gave up one of his three shopping center units and said business is off by 40 percent because customers are gone.

Put these and other pictures together and the collage tells the story of Hispanics who are leaving Southwest Florida to find work or to return to the support of their families back home.

“There is a loss in the number of Hispanics in our communities,” said Robert Selle, director of the Amigos Center, which aids Hispanics with immigration issues and offers other services in Lee County. “The underlying reason is economic; the same reason they came here in the first place.”

Population drain

The loss comes from a good portion of Lee County’s population. The U.S. Census Bureau listed the county’s Hispanic population at more than 90,000 - about 16 percent of Lee’s 571,000 population - in 2006.

What the statistics further show is that work is gone. Unemployment in the Fort Myers-Cape Coral region has risen this past year, from 2.7 percent to 6.3 percent.

Many of the lost jobs are in construction, which has been put on hold as the sluggish market struggles with a glut of unsold houses.

Because many Hispanic construction workers are believed to be illegal immigrants, because construction and agricultural workers are a mobile population anyway, because many are single with families back in their native lands, and because their leaving was often spur-of-the-moment, no governmental or social service agency is keeping accurate records of this exodus.

Lee County School District reported a loss of Hispanics in all grades totaling 388 pupils through January of this school year - this after growing by almost 3,000 Hispanic students a year earlier.

But the white student population dropped as well. The big difference was while dropout rates tend to increase as the year goes on in the upper grades, the Hispanic population was the only one also to lose ground in the kindergarten through fifth-grade range. It fell by 87 pupils - an indication their families moved from the district, according to Michael Smith, director of planning, growth and school capacity.

“Many workers in the construction industry and related industry are leaving the area and following the money,” said Barbara Hartman, spokeswoman for the state’s Career and Service Center in Fort Myers. “It seems to be an increasing number of people who are temporarily relocating. I wish we did track that.”

Hartman said she knows people are leaving because they tell counselors when they come in seeking work, saying they need the higher construction industry wages, which begin at $10 to $11 an hour for the most unskilled, to maintain their standard of living……..

Dacus Lamont Sims would still be alive today if the driver who hit him would have been deported for a DUI arrest a year prior.

Luciano Melendres, an illegal alien, was charged a second time for DWI but this time added a felony hit-and-run to his record.

Sims, who was hit while crossing a street in Charlotte, North Carolina, died at the scene.

Melendres rather then stopping to offer aid, continued to his friend’s house and was only found because a good hearted driver witnessing the accident followed him in his car and contacted the police.

Melendres shouldn’t have even been in the country.  He was arrested a year prior.  But the Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office had not instituted a screening to determine whether prisoners were in the U.S illegally.  This failure resulted in Melendres being released to get back on the streets.

After the Sheriff began the new screening program.  They identified more then 900 illegal aliens at the jail between April and November of 2007.  DWI’s were the most common and accounted for 190 of the arrrests.  Traffic violations in general counted for 176 counts.

But for Sim’s, it was to little, to late.

Three people are under arrest in Raleigh N.C. after they supplied 34 unspent anti-tank shells to a metal scrap yard. Two of the shells had gone off before being discovered injuring workers at the scrap yard.
One individual being held even had similiar shells stored in his home and yard, putting his neighbors and community at great risk.
The shells have been connected back to the Fort Bragg area.

How these shells were obtained is still a mystery to law enforcement.  One can only hope answers are offered soon as it seems our Military bases are easily breeched and American’s safety questionable.

Carlsbad City Council agreed Tuesday to give Catholic Charities $108,500 needed to begin building a shelter for immigrant farm workers in town.  The final cost of the project is expected to be $2 million dollars.

This might not be a bad idea, provided a few clauses be made:

• That the “Farmworkers” they shelter are legal immigrants, anything short would be against Federal Law in aiding and abeding illegals.
• That the “Homeless” they shelter are American citizens who are out of work from having the illegals taking jobs in the fields they could be doing to get back on their feet again.
• That the Catholic church pushing for this is also paying the lions share of the bills.
• That the Church and Farmers pay for the food, housing, medical expense, and schooling for the illegals.
• That should any illegal alien “disappear into the shadow” the Farmers and Church that is demanding this be held fully accountable by law for aiding and abeding a known criminal.

After all that would be the Christian neighborly thing for them to do.

In a new study conducted it was found that one in five inmates in North Carolina metropolitan jails are not born in this country.

The Sheriff’s Association goes so far as to state that they believe the large number of these inmates are here illegally as well.

State lawmakers cite lack access to I.C.E. databases for part of the problem facing law enforcement.

With a past track record of law enforcement agencies being given no authority to enforce immigration laws, those same countries that once refused enforcement are now looking into new programs that can lead to quicker deportation. One such program being implimented is known as 287g which gives speciallty trained deputies the authority to process illegal immigrants who commit crimes.  Counties such as Mecklenberg, Alamance, Gaston and Cabarrus have already signed up for this program and fifteen others have pending applications.
