HOUSTON (FOX 26) - Helmut Mayer was born in Germany.

In 1997, Mayer said he came to the US on a temporary VISA. He has a driver's license, a Social Security number and has worked for years as a cab driver in Pasadena.

Hmmm, what else can he do to get someone's attention...

drive recklessly or DUI and get pulled over? No, that wouldn't work - he'd just get a ticket or a short stay in jail.

steal something? No, just released with a court date.

Anything major would get him jail, court and prison before ICE got a hold of him.

Guess he will just have to go to ICE during business hours and take a number. Probably fill out some paperwork and be asked to come back in a few months for a status summary.

He could register to vote as a republican, work Rmoney campaign events and say he is going to vote republican. . .THAT would get holder’s people after him. . .in a split second.

That should do it.
