John Miller was sentenced at the Johnstown District Court Monday morning. When asked about his reaction to the sentence, Miller said, “I was definitely not expecting this. I’m considering all my options, including applying for citizenship.”

Miller’s troubles started when he was pulled over by Officer Lucy Hill for having driven through a stop sign. Brian Kemp, spokesperson for the Johnstown Police Department, explains, “Officer Hill was immediately clued to the strangeness of the situation by the fact that Miller’s truck had no license plate, and had huge truck nuts hanging from the back. She deduced from this that the truck was male.”

Kemp continues, “When she congratulated Miller on the truck nuts, and asked for his driver’s license, Miller declared that he did not have a license, because he is not a citizen of the United States.” Miller’s declaration was his own undoing.

The Honorable Judge Julie Moon asked Miller for his birth certificate or anything providing that he was a US citizen. Miller refused to provide the evidence, still claiming to be a “sovereign citizen,” not bound by US law. Consequently, Judge Moon found that Miller was a foreign national, illegally present in the United States, and ordered him deported to Mexico.

Authorities in Mexico are already planing to deport Miller to Brazil, since he is not a Mexican national either.
