Julio Cesar Alvitres: Los Angeles Man Charged in DMV Scam. If convicted he could get 7 years in slammer.

Image via WikipediaLOS ANGELES – A 54-year-old man accused of scamming as much as $10,000 from seven victims by posing as an employee of the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) is expected to be arraigned next week, the District Attorney’s Office announced.

Julio Cesar Alvitres (dob 10/29/56) is charged with seven counts of grand theft of personal property and one count each of counterfeit seal and forgery.

Alvitres will appear in Department 30 of the Foltz Criminal Justice Center. He is charged in case No. BA378672.

The defendant allegedly sought business from persons seeking to register vehicles or obtain drivers’ licenses and social security cards. Alvitres allegedly showed the victims a DMV employee identification card, which prosecutors contend was fake. The defendant purportedly told the victims that he could obtain the documents they sought for a fee. The majority of the victims were Latino.

Each victim paid the defendant between $100 and $4,500, prosecutors said. The alleged offenses occurred between April and November 2010.

Bail is recommended at $200,000 for the defendant. If convicted as charged, Alvitres faces a maximum state prison term of seven years.

Meet Randy Economy

You may know me from my role as the Senior Advisor and Official Media Spokesman for the Recall Gavin Newsom campaign that established a worldwide blitz of interviews. I conducted more than 2,200 media interviews on behalf of “The People’s Recall” during a 10-month period from November 2020 to September 2021. The iconic magazine Mother Jones in a dramatic feature article called me “A ‘Superhero Pirate’ Radio Host, (and) Gavin Newsom’s Strangest—and Most Dangerous—Threat. Meet Randy Economy, the man behind the effort to recall California’s governor.” I appeared on more than 330 media outlets around the world in my capacity with RecallGavin2020. Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, Newsmax, NBC Nightly News, ABC News, as well as the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Politico, and dozens of other media outlets aired featured reports on my work on behalf of “The People’s Recall.” I am and will always consider myself to be a journalist. Sometimes I think I bleed ink. My talents as an Investigative Journalists in California earned me FIVE top awards from the prestigious Los Angeles Press Club in 2013, 2014, and 2016. I am tenacious. My reporting over the years has led to the prosecution of several elected officials in California. While working for a tiny community newspaper in Southeast Los Angeles County, I worked doggedly to expose the biggest public corruption case in Los Angeles County history when I unearthed a massive pay to play scheme inside the Assessor’s Office that led to the arrest of then Assessor John R. Noguez and four others. However, politics has been in my DNA since I was a child. I have worked on more than 300 political campaigns as a consultant and advisor since 1982 for candidates from all sides of the political spectrum including Democrats and Republicans, and even Libertarians. I am also a small business owner, serving as the President and CEO of Hot Water Studio & Production, LLC. My company works with media outlets across the state, nation, and world exposing public corruption via several new media platforms. I have also overcome personal challenges. I am legally blind with zero vision in my right eye and only 40 percent vision remaining in my left eye. I sometimes wear an eyepatch due to my failed vision. (Hence the nickname of “America’s Political Pirate.”
