From Fox News: Former Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) clerk Melissa Moorman sued her old employers for allegedly firing her because she reported on co-workers selling driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants.
According to court documents obtained by Fox News Digital, Moorman discovered in 2024 that two co-workers from the Department of Vehicle Regulation were selling documents to “nonresidents” without proper immigration screenings or testing. Her lawyers argued that she knew of the crime after being invited to participate.
“The employees were being paid under the table,” Moorman told WDRB News on Monday. “I immediately let my supervisor know about it.”
She also informed WDRB News that these co-workers would sell licenses for $200 per person approximately four to five times a day, for over two years. Moorman said that every case she encountered involved an illegal immigrant.
After she reported the criminal activity to her superiors, Moorman said her co-workers were fired an an investigation was launched. Then, the situation took a twist, as Moorman herself was fired on the day she met with investigators in January.
In April, Moorman filed a lawsuit, asking for her job and benefits to be restored, with back pay.
