Texas DPS Trooper Guilty of Illegally Selling Drivers Licenses To Unqualified Applicants

Houston, Texas

A Texas Department of Public Safety trooper from Houston pleaded guilty today to selling driver's licenses to unqualified applicants, federal officials said.

Trooper Mark DeArza, 39, is the second DPS employee to plead guilty in a case that involved the operator of a gas station on Almeda-Genoa who acted as a middle man to sell the licenses, officials said.

DPS clerk Lidia Gutierrez, 37, of Galena Park pleaded guilty on Sept. 30.

Both face up to 15 years in prison and $250,000 in fines. Both are out on bond awaiting sentencing.
