Is this a sign of the times? Are more crack downs to come?
CINCINNATI — Three people and the temporary labor companies they ran in Ohio and Tennessee pleaded guilty to using more than 1,000 illegal aliens to sort air freight over several years.
Maximino Garcia, owner of Garcia Labor Company of Ohio Inc. and Garcia Labor Company Inc. of Morristown, Tenn., also agreed Tuesday to forfeit $12 million in proceeds from his businesses.
Garcia and his sister, Dominga McCarroll, former vice president of the two companies, both pleaded guilty to a conspiracy charge in U.S. District Court. Gina Luciano, director of human relations for Garcia Labor in Tennessee, also pleaded guilty to the charge.
All had been named in a July indictment alleging they encouraged and enabled illegal aliens — most from Mexico — to work at the ABX Air Inc. hub in Wilmington, about 40 miles northeast of Cincinnati.
No date was set for sentencing. Each could be sentenced to 10 years in prison and fined $250,000.
A woman who answered the telephone at Garcia's Tennessee office said she had no instructions on how to refer a call for comment from the company.

That is how employers get 'around' the requirements while strictly following the law. They hire temps or contract workers from agencies, and then the agency is supposed to screen for immigration status.

No, not at all. These three are a statement, so that people will wonder if there are more crackdowns to come. The statement has been made, there is no need to go through the work of actually following through anymore.

i imagine that their are terrible crimes dedicated by skill of many individuals in this united states of america. What you do is only concentration on inspite of a few unlawful did that became incorrect. One man or woman does no longer outline all of them. I cant stereotype black human beings because their became an huge rebellion in L.A. years in the past proper? Ofcourse no longer. Then why are you doing it. Stereotyping as continually. you genuinely dont get drained in any respect. Gratefully theres those who see those questions as what they extremely are. Hatefull...

That is good to hear. The next people to get caught doing it should have a longer sentence and/or a bigger fine and then people will really get the message.

I hope it is a sign of the times. If we can't secure our borders to prevent illegal immigrants from breaking our laws, at least we can prevent American companies from breaking the law.
