A Jamaican has been sentenced to 13 months in federal prison for trying to hide his identity to escape deportation from the United States

Associated Press:

But this isn't any normal case involving an illegal immigrant. Prosecutors said 41-year-old Marc Terrance George tried to sneek back into the country by using skin from his feet to change his fingerprints.

George was caught when U-S Customs and Border Protection officers in Nogales, Arizona, noticed something unusual about his fingers when he attempted to enter the country from Mexico

George was sentenced yesterday after having pleaded guilty to illegal entry after deportation.

After serving his prison time, George will be extradited to New Jersey to face charges of money laundering.
