Chicago Alderman's dad took photos for fake IDs: feds

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:
The father of a Chicago alderman allegedly snapped the photos that were in the middle of a sophisticated fake ID scheme that culminated in a controversial Little Village raid last month.

Federal authorities say Elias Munoz, 62, of Chicago took the photos to help provide fake documents to Chicagoans every year. Munoz, who owns Nuevo Foto Munoz at 3105 W. 26th St., was charged with taking part in a larger scheme that ensnared 22 people last month.
Chicago has a style all its own.
