At least she has to quit as Assemblywoman. But she’s not being deported for criminally lying.
Via NY Post:
A Washington Heights assemblywoman was forced to resign Friday as she pleaded guilty in Manhattan federal court to a sham marriage that paved the way for her to become a US citizen — and the first Dominican woman elected to a legislative office in New York.
Her head hanging in shame, Gabriela Rosa, 47, elected in 2012, admitted to filing bogus documents with the federal government in which she lied about her first marriage to obtain citizenship.
Rosa paid $8,000 to a US citizen to engage in the fraudulent nuptials while she maintained a romantic relationship with another man. She is currently married to Victor Estrella and has a 14-year-old son.
