Mexican-born actress charged with marriage fraud

[Hot Mega]

LOS ANGELES – Mexican-born actress Fernanda Romero has had bit parts in such movies as the horror film "Drag Me to Hell," but federal prosecutors say her biggest act was pretending to be a bride.

The 28-year-old actress and husband were arrested Friday at their separate Los Angeles homes and charged with marriage fraud, the U.S. attorney's office said. They contend Romero paid Kent Ross, 28, to marry her in 2005 so that she could become a U.S. resident.

Authorities said the two never lived together and Romero, whose full name is Maria Fernanda Romero Martinez, submitted phony documents with her residency application.

An investigation began after Romero's ex-boyfriend, fashion photographer Markus Klinko, told immigration authorities her marriage was a sham. The couple started dating after Romero and Ross were married.

If convicted, Romero and Ross could be sentenced to up to five years in federal prison.

They broke the law. Simple as that. Scornful ex-boyfriend screwed her over.

Oh yeah, she's clearly a very bad chica - I could tell the second I saw her. But instead of deporting her or the taxpayers having to pay for a lengthy trial, I think she should just be sent to a detention center... that doesn't charge anything: Rey C.'s Home for Wayward Latinas.

My dedicated staff of counselors (right now it's just me... business is a little slow) will help her to become a more well rounded human being. Up early in the morning to wash the cars (in a bikini), mow the grass (in Daisy Dukes and a halter top), pick up pencils when I drop them (in a mini skirt with no panties) and of course the punishment phase: daily (more like nightly) spankings until she realizes the error of her ways.

Does anyone doubt that Fernanda will voluntarily return to Mexico and never come back here after spending about six months with me? Hell, I didn't go out with one girl for much more than six months and she went back to Monterrey and won't even talk to me now... and I didn't even spank her! Well, maybe once, but she hopped across my lap so... :dunno:

OK, just let me know when to expect her. I'll be getting the guest... I mean, detention room ready.

What part did she play in Drag Me To Hell? I really enjoyed the ending to that by the way.

Damn, all she had to do was live with her "husband" for 2 years and then get a divorce or apply for a green card or she could have applied for a work visa.

FYI, the going rate on the street for Latin American illegals to marry a US citizen [like me] is 18k.

Something you should know. :2 cents:

Her boobs are tiny. Hence I don't care about this.
