Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Tuesday’s raid stemmed from the February conviction of a former plant worker, Maria Moreno, 53, of Arkadelphia, who pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court at Hot Springs to one count of selling five or more identification documents, one count of possessing another person’s Social Security card, and one count of possessing a Social Security card with intent to sell.

Authorities said Moreno, who worked in the personnel office at Petit Jean Poultry for at least 10 years before she left in 2003, told agents that she had supplied people with "genuine U.S. birth certificates and matching Social Security cards for $780 per set."
