Former Des Moines Schools Chief Sentenced to Two Years for Immigration Deception and Firearm Offense

Ian Roberts, the former Des Moines Public Schools superintendent who lived in the U.S. illegally, was sentenced to two years in federal prison for lying about his citizenship on an employment form and for possessing a gun while in the country illegally; his career unravelled after ICE attempted to detain him, a gun was found in his district vehicle, and he had years of working without proper authorization before he pleaded guilty in January, facing deportation.
