Sigh...and so it also goes in Marion County
Well, apparently some jobs become more valuable:
Ocala - Fifteen years ago, when Milagros "Millie" Rosa first started working as a Spanish-English interpreter in the 5th Judicial Circuit, the calls were few and far between.
Now, her phone doesn't stop ringing.
The contract interpreter works seven days a week, shuttling back and forth between court and the jail, translating for nearly 90 to 100 Hispanic individuals per month in misdemeanor, family law and juvenile cases. Most of her misdemeanor cases involve petty traffic offenses, such as driving without a valid driver's license. Over 90 percent of her clients, she says, are in the country illegally.
What would be really cool is if there was a serious influx of legal aliens with money. (Heavy sigh)
