ICE Busts Criminal Illegal Alien Who Drove Flashy Cars and Partied With Models

Iranian citizen Farzad “Tony” Toutouni was known as the “King of Instagram,” posting racy photos of nude models and fancy cars for his more than one million followers. Toutouni was arrested by ICE on October 27 for allegedly entering the U.S. illegally from Canada, as well as an alleged crime spree dating back to 1989.

Toutouni, who lives in a $5 million Hollywood Hills mansion, spent years ducking immigration enforcement.

Here’s more:

Investigators say Toutouni, who also used the first name “Robert,” committed a series of serious crimes in the US after arriving here legally in 1983.

He has been arrested for criminal threats, criminal conspiracy, and possession and sale of a controlled substance, ICE officials said.

He was also sentenced to more than 16 months’ imprisonment for making or passing a fictitious check, grand theft, conspiracy, forgery, kidnapping, robbery and extortion, according to the officials.

In 1993, an immigration judge ordered Toutouni removed from the country, but he managed to remain, according to authorities. In 1999, another judge ordered him removed once again, and he was deported to Mexico, the feds say.

Toutouni said he again entered the US illegally on or about April 4, 2011, near Saint Clair, Michigan, by crossing the river using an electric raft purchased in Canada, according to ICE officials.

So for more than 30 years, Toutouni has flouted our laws while committing other crimes. 

Some find this very disheartening.

This is so unsettling.

I’ve fulfilled my social contract and civic duties, served, maintained a spotless criminal record as well as credit, but in this one lifetime I get, I know I’ll be pushing up daisies before I ever get behind the wheel of a luxury sports car.

I can live…

He’s not alone in feeling this way.

What a shame. That could’ve been a future NASA astronaut right there. Such a waste of potential. https://t.co/Wj8Bq2XHkn

ICE also issued a press release on Toutouni’s arrest.

“He has been arrested for criminal threats, criminal conspiracy, and possession and sale of a controlled substance. He was sentenced to more than 16 months for making or passing a fictitious check, grand theft of access card, conspiracy to commit crime, possess/alter access card equipment, forgery, kidnapping, robbery and extortion,” the press release said. It reiterated that he was ordered removed by an immigration judge in 1993 and again in 1999, when he was deported to Mexico.
