Venezuelan Man, 24, Accused of Posing as Student at Ohio High School

Anthony Labrador Sierra, a 24-year-old Venezuelan man, attended Perrysburg High School in Ohio posing as a 16-year-old student since January 2024.
He used a Venezuelan birth certificate showing him as 16 and claimed to be a homeless migrant trafficked into the U.S., according to police and school reports.
The host family, granted temporary guardianship, helped Sierra obtain documents like a social security number and driver's license while he joined the JV soccer team.
After a woman informed the host family that Sierra was the father of her children, police apprehended him during a traffic stop on Monday related to a forgery warrant; he entered a not guilty plea to a fifth-degree felony forgery charge, with bail set at $50,000.
Authorities placed an immigration detainer on Sierra as federal charges may follow; the school called the case highly unusual, and DHS described his actions as disturbing.
