In a strange story, a judge sentenced an Oregon man to federal prison Monday for trying to bribe ICE officer into deporting his estranged wife and stepdaughter.

The Daily Caller reports Antonio Oswaldo Burgos met and married his wife in El Salvador.

The couple, along with the woman’s daughter, eventually moved to Portland, Oregon. But, as they started the process of divorce in 2018, Burgos devised a plan against his soon-to-be ex-wife.

He met with an ICE officer in Portland, offering him $3,000 and then $4,000 to have his wife and her minor daughter deported.

Burgos pleaded guilty to one count of bribery of a public official.
