 Posted: Fri Dec 15, 2006 9:23 am Post subject: Some Illegal Immigrants Caught In Raid Are Sent Back To Mexi |

The meat packing plants raided in a massive immigration sweep on Tuesday are running at reduced levels. Swift and Company said its plants in Greeley and five other states resumed operations at reduced levels Wednesday, just a day after nearly 1,300 employees were arrested.
Two bus loads of those suspects were taken to Denver International Airport Wednesday where they boarded a plane to Mexico. The workers chose deportation rather than appear before an immigration judge. Barbara Gonzales with Immigration and Customs Enforcement said, "These civil search warrants are part of an ongoing work site enforcement that has revealed that individuals have been assuming the identity of us citizens and of U.S. residents in order to obtain employment."

It was wise of them to choose deportation rather than see a judge. I just hope they understand that illegal immigration is a crime. |
