56 ILLEGAL ALIENS ARRESTED BY ICE AT CONSTRUCTION SITE
ICE executes a criminal search warrant against Reich Installation Services Inc.
CARTHAGE, Mo. - U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents here arrested 56 illegal aliens this morning following the execution of a criminal search warrant against Reich Installation Services Inc. of Pewaukee, Wis.
The search warrant was executed at the Schreiber Foods construction site at 1206 W. Fairview, Carthage, Mo. Reich Installation Services is employed as a sub-contractor at this site. In addition to arresting the aliens working at the site, the criminal search warrant authorized seizure of business, financial and personnel records, as well as computers maintained by Reich Installation.
Of the 56 aliens administratively arrested today for illegally residing in the United States, 28 were Reich Installation employees. Eight others worked for Top Flight, another construction site contractor. The aliens all claim to be citizens of Mexico. ICE agents are still interviewing and processing the aliens for deportation.
“Reich Installation Services has been associated with at least two other U.S. sites where illegal aliens have been arrested within the last year,” said Elissa Brown, ICE special agent-in-charge of the Chicago office. “Employers must get the message that hiring illegal aliens is against the law. ICE will especially scrutinize those employers who are repeatedly identified in these operations.” Brown oversees the ICE Office of Investigations for a six-state area, including: Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky and Wisconsin.
It is against federal law to knowingly hire or continue to employ illegal aliens. Punishments range from $200 per paperwork violation to $10,000 per hiring violation, to include potential prison sentences.
Today's operation is part of ICE's comprehensive strategy for worksite enforcement aimed at promoting national security, protecting critical infrastructure, and ensuring fair labor standards.
Carthage Police Department and Jasper County Sheriff's Department assisted ICE with executing this criminal search warrant.
According to its website, Reich Installation Services Inc. nationally designs and installs custom warehouse distribution systems in factories and warehouses in excess of five million square feet.
This is an ongoing investigation.
56? Damn.
Kind of hard to believe the contractor could hire that many without catching on.
Now, STICK IT to the subcontractor.
Iced by ICE. That is so, like, OhmyGaaawd.
And a kid was stabbed at a rallyhttp://www.dailypress.com/news/local/virginia/dp-dc-brf--immigrationpr0331mar31,0,3593254.story?coll=dp-headlines-virginia
So what?
It's just more of the same catch and release hogwash.
Let the games begin...

umm they caught on all right we have a President who "intends" to enforce the law, he has had 5 years to start doing so...
56 Construction Jobs that AMERICANS should have had! Fine the BLOODY BLAZES, BIG TIME, out of the Construction Company that hired the illegals.

About time, but a nice start...
Several years ago when I was sitting in the bar after work when some guys I knew from another shop came in and told me that the INS had arrested 26 illegals from their shop. Unfortunately most of those were back inside of a week.
No one's going back.
Thanks for that idiot graphic. I don't think that's appropriate in the slightest.
I wonder how many construction companies couldn't compete legally because of this company? Or how many had to go out of business because of this company?
"Kind of hard to believe the contractor could hire that many without catching on."
You would think that the fact that they all had the same SSN would have tipped them off.
