This is quite interesting. Immigration officials made a series of arrests yesterday nabbing hundreds of illegal immigrants and seven executives of the pallet manufacturing company they were working at.
Authorities raided offices and plants of IFCO Systems in at least eight states, the culmination of a yearlong criminal investigation, law enforcement officials said.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrested seven current and former IFCO Systems managers on charges they conspired to transport, harbor and encourage illegal workers to reside in the United States for commercial advantage and private financial gain, said Glenn T. Suddaby, the chief federal prosecutor in Albany, N.Y., where some arrests were made.
The investigation has been going on for more than a year, according to the report. Okay.
UPDATE: Michelle Malkin has the numbers. It makes the Bush enforcement effort look like what it is – a show.
