FBI Arrests 2 San Diego Mortgage Fraud Fugitives

Two mortgage fraud fugitives have been arrested: Angel Armendariz, 27, and Rafael Santiago, 39. The arrests took place in San Diego and Los Angeles, California. Both fugitives were arrested pursuant to a federal arrest warrant involving federal fraud charges.

The first arrest occurred at approximately 8:30 a.m., on June 24, 2008, at the San Diego FBI Office located at 9797 Aero Drive, San Diego. At the time of the arrest, Angel Armendariz, self surrendered to FBI Agents. Armendariz was accompanied by his attorney at the time of his arrest.

Armendariz was fingerprinted and photographed at the offices of the FBI and then transported to the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC), 808 Union Street, San Diego, California. Armendariz will remain at MCC pending his appearance before a U.S. Magistrate Judge.

On this same date at approximately 1:30 p.m., FBI Agents arrested Rafael Santiago in the 11400 block of Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles, California. Santiago was arrested without incident after the FBI received information from the public concerning Santiago‘s location.

Santiago is expected to be booked into the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC), 535 N. Alameda Street, Los Angeles, California. Santiago will remain at MDC pending his appearance before a U.S. Magistrate Judge.

The FBI appreciates the public’s cooperation in this investigation to date. The FBI is still asking the public’s help to locate Lucette Montane, the last fugitive in this investigation.

mortgage fraud

1. A judgment was just entered against me in an unlawful detainer action.  The sheriff just served me with a notice to vacate with an eviction date of Thanksgiving.  In my answer to the unlawful detainer and in court I explained that Countrywide was committing fraud for not accepting my payment, for not working with me to lower my payments since my home had depreciated so much and for not honoring my requests for production of documents, like the original wet ink note.  The Commissioner (Ronald L. Grey that issued the judgment) wouldn’t even let me talk at the hearing and almost immediately issued the judgment.  I have not had due process.  The plaintiff, U.S. Bank National Association as Trustee for GSR 2006-8F was never holder in due course.  They were never a party in interest, were not at the trustee sale, no one was, and the sale was only on paper, transfered from Countrywide’s trustee Recontrust to another trust U.S. Bank National Association as trustee for GSR 2006-8F owned by and at the same address as Countrywide.  I have contacted the Realtor that has been hired by Countrywide to sell my home at auction, which proves that Countrywide never really sold my home, but instead illegally transferred the deed to themselves.  My family, which includes a two year old and a four year old are now dealing with the sheriff and facing eviction when Countrywide, Recontrust, U.S. Bank National Association as Trustee for GSR 2006-8F and their representing counsel (which I have also learned represents Countrywide for many of their foreclosures) are all involved in the fraud.  The story goes on and on and I could tell you much more, like my affidavit of recission that was ignored, my request to state a claim that was ignored and my negative averment that has gone unanswered.  Not to mention the many people I have met that are dealing with Countrywide and the same situation.  I am just panicing because I do not want my children and I to lose possession of our property due to the fraud of the corporations and legal system we are dealing with.  If you can help, please contact me!
   Thank you!
