CONCORD, N.H. (AP) – A Nashua man faces 15 years in prison for selling counterfeit documents.

U.S. Attorney Tom Colantuono said Gilmar Miranda, 33, pleaded guilty Friday to selling a fake resident alien card – known as a “green card” – and a counterfeit Social Security card. He was arrested by immigration officials last summer.

Besides the prison sentence, Miranda faces a maximum fine of $250,000. A federal judge ordered him held until his sentencing hearing on Jan. 24.
