DPS, DA'S DIRTY DEEDS TURNED WOMAN'S LIFE UPSIDE DOWN

By Claudia Elisa Sanchez

1 am 43 years of age and I have never been arrested for anything in my entire life.

I have been married for 23 years. Prior to (Texas Department of Public Safety Agent Rene) Olivarez becoming involved in my life, I had never been involved in any kind of legal problems. The evidence at hand as well as the manner in which he handled the baseless allegations he made against me clearly demonstrate that he solely arrested me in order to coerce me and as a means of oppression.

On or about October of 2014, my husband began his car sales business where I would help him in processing the title registrations for his customers as well as perform Used Motor Vehicle Dealer Appraisals. Throughout this time, I conducted all my appraisals legally and honestly.

On March 23, 2016, I was indicted for Felony Tampering with Government Records.

The Search

On January 6, 2016, agent Olivarez submitted search warrant affidavits to Judge Elia Cornejo Lopez of the 404th Judicial District Court of Cameron County, Texas. In said affidavit Olivarez, under oath, accused me of Tampering with Government Documents alleging that I signed a Used Motor Vehicle Certified Appraisal Form for a vehicle that did not exist.

Once agent Olivarez secured the signature on this search warrant, he then orchestrated the search of my home and my husband's car lot. This was an extremely serious invasion of my family's privacy. Numerous police vehicles showed up at my house and armed agents rummaged through all my personal and private belongings. This search was a farce and clearly meant to intimidate me and my family and to embarrass me in front of friends and neighbors.


1 would later find out Olivarez willfully omitted from his search warrant the affidavit he submitted to the court that he had previously arrested his "cooperating individual", Mr. Melquiades Sosa, and had charged him with several counts of Tampering with the exact same documents that he accused me of tampering with. In other words, he had already arrested Mr. Sosa for creating these documents and then proceeded to arrest me for creating the exact same documents. He thus knew that Mr. Sosa was the one responsible for these documents, but he arrested me anyway.

The Arrest as a Means to Coerce

On March 30, 2016, agent Olivarez appeared at my place of employment and arrested me. He handcuffed me and then paraded me in front of all my fellow employees and customers. I was extremely distraught and crying, as I could not bare the humiliation. 

He placed me in his car and immediately threatened that if I didn't cooperate with him he would file more criminal charges against me. He tells me that he can make everything go away, but only if I agree to help him. 

I told him that I have not done anything wrong. 

He insists that I am lying. It would be more than 8 months of constant worrying about the felony charges he initiated against me, before all charges would eventually be dropped for lack of evidence. Agent Olivarez knew that Mr. Sosa created these fictitious documents then falsely arrested me for same.

1 later found out that Agent Olivarez and the District Attorney's office cut a deal to dismiss all charges against Mr. Sosa if he could help build a case against the Tax Office. In other words, agent Olivarez knew Sosa had committed the crime and rather than seek punishment against Sosa, he rewarded him and punished me instead. 

Agent Olivarez knew there was no evidence of wrongdoing on my part, yet he arrested me in order to coerce and threaten me. This behavior by agent Olivarez must be punished. This ordeal was a nightmare for me and my whole family. This agent cannot continue to strong arm people by falsely charging and threatening them to cooperate or else. This is how innocent people wind up in prison.

A quick comparison between my signature on my driver's license and any of the documents seized from my home, with the signatures of the Used Motor Vehicle Certified Appraisal Forms filled out and signed by his informant, clearly reveal that these are not the same, nor do they have any similarities. (Seized document is on top.)
Below is the signature as it appears on my driver's license.
Thus, Agent Olivarez knew that the signatures in these Used Motor Vehicle Appraisal Form as submitted by his informant were not mine, nor did they resemble my signature.

The Agent Knew I Did Not Complete the Forms

GILMAN Q. This document shows that it was appraised at Luxury Auto -- Autoplex.
SOSA       A. That's correct.
GILMAN Q. Who owns who owns Luxury Autoplex?
SOSA       A. I believe it's Mr. Rolando Sanchez.
GILMAN Q. And it says here the appraiser was Claudia Sanchez,
SOSA        A. That's his wife.
GILMAN  Q. Whose signature is that?
SOSA         A. I don't know.
GILMAN   Q. Did you make this document? Did you fill out all the forms?
SOSA          A. Yes,...

Olivarez was aware that Sosa was completing these Motor Vehicle Appraisal Forms himself and not me, Olivarez also knew that the reason Sosa was cooperating was because he had caught Sosa tampering with these same government documents.

Falsely Swore That Vehicles Did Not Exist
From warrant affidavit:
"This was a false entry in a government document as the vehicle did not exist."

However, the custodian of records for the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles revealed through various title history reports that said vehicles utilized by agent Olivarez, including the cars mentioned in these Motor Vehicle Appraisal Forms, did in fact exist and had vehicle registration records predating his investigation. 

In other words, Agent Olivarez lied on his affidavit in order to secure a search warrant. If anyone committed a crime of falsifying records, it was Agent Olivarez when he submitted this false document to the Court.
Conclusion: 

In sum, agent Olivarez knew that (1) Mr. Sosa was the one that tampered and forged the documents in the title packets containing the Used Motor Vehicle Appraisal Forms in question; (2) the signatures in these are not remotely similar to mine; (3) the vehicles which he swore didn't exist, did in fact exist (4) anyone from the general public, specially a used car salesman, could have access to my husband's dealer license information.

Because of(his) reckless disregard for the truth, questionable investigative tactics, and illegal enforcement of the law, I was arrested, booked into the Carrizales-Rucker Detention Center and subsequently indicted by the Cameron County District Attorney's Office. On February 9, 2017 these frivolous charges were subsequently dismissed.

In order to maintain the public's trust in Texas law enforcement and its judicial system, the Texas Department of Public Safety must take decisive action. It must immediately investigate and must take corrective action in order to preclude reckless and coercive agents such as Olivarez from harming the public. 

Therefore, I hereby submit my official complaint against agent Olivarez and respectfully request that the matters as herein stated be adequately investigated and that criminal charges be taken should they be deemed necessary.

What has the yes man Lazoya done since he got into office, besides pay off Gilbert Salinas. What has he done about the credit card thief Jason Hilts, and the Columbian scam and fraud except say YES, YES, YES. This is what he is being paid for. Mr. YES MAN Lazoya, what is it like to be a high paid puppet, who is paid to say YES all the time, do you get to say what to eat, or do you say YES to what you are served. For God's sake be a man and grow a pair of balls and make sure you use them. Start with the Jackass Jason Hilts and don't let Gilbert Salinas laugh at you, and don't even think about hiring the scumbag Rene Oliveria as your lawyer, unless you need him privately.

At 250K annual salary he's allowed to say only one word YES or SI.
