Koch Foods in Fairfield, Ohio, was raided by about 300 agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Fairfield police and Butler County Sheriff's deputies, they surrounded the building just after 9am and by 11:45am, 160 people out of 180 that were questioned were handcuffed and arrested.
Butler County, Ohio, Sheriff's Department spokesman Sgt. Monte Mayer said hundreds of federal agents, sheriff's deputies and other local law-enforcement officers joined forces in a raid at Koch Foods in Fairfield, Ohio, in what he called "the latest crackdown on illegal aliens and the businesses who employ them."
As of early afternoon, Sgt. Mayer said more than 160 people had been arrested on immigration violations.
Immigration spokesman Richard Rocha said the operation was the end result of a two-year investigation.
"I've been saying for 2½ years we're coming," said Butler County Sheriff Richard Jones during a news conference Tuesday afternoon. "Don't have illegals. Don't violate the law. I personally have no sympathy for you whatsoever."
Cracking down on employers is one of the most important aspects of controlling the border because those employers and one of the major reasons people cross the border illegally.

I am so pleased to hear this! Ohio is doing some serious raids now! Hopefully we can rid this state of all illegals! That's the plan anyway! One Ohio man actually recruited illegals for his business in Centerville, Ohio. He's ruined! I'm not sorry for anyone who intentially breaks our laws!

Get a No Cost Background Check Scan at https://bitly.im/aNWGN
Its a sensible way to start. The site allows you to do a no cost scan simply to find out if any sort of data is in existence. A smaller analysis is done without cost. To get a detailed report its a modest payment.
You may not realize how many good reasons there are to try and find out more about the people around you. After all, whether you're talking about new friends, employees, doctors, caretakers for elderly family members, or even significant others, you, as a citizen, have a right to know whether the people you surround yourself with are who they say they are. This goes double in any situation that involves your children, which not only includes teachers and babysitters, but also scout masters, little league coaches and others. Bottom line, if you want to find out more about someone, you should perform a background check.

What about the employers.. were they handcuffed and arrested too?
I don't agree with illegal immigration... but just ask yourself this question:
Who's more to blame, the one who gets paid to buy food for his children or the one who pays knowing it's going to mean more money for him at the expense of other people, including his fellow Americans?

Good I hope they deport all of them and jail the people who hired these people.
I can't believe people actually stick up for the illegals or say well they will just come back. At least they are doing something. Would you prefer we just go down to Mexico and say "Hey come on in"? Doing nothing is why we have this problem in the 1st place.

Before you get too excited wait for the news release which tells exactly how many were detained and deported.Probably only 9 to 10 will end up deported.the rest will be let back out.Sorry to burst your bubble but that's how it's gone so far.Caught and released except those with criminal warrants.
