FAIRFIELD, Ohio (Reuters) - When 300 U.S. immigration agents surrounded the chicken processing plant where Danny Alvarez-Reyes works, he did the only thing he could think of: he gave his coat to a scared friend determined to hide in the walk-in freezer.
Alvarez-Reyes, 27, works legally at the Koch Food plant near Cincinnati and could only watch as co-workers were rounded up during a raid on Tuesday that netted 160 illegal workers.
But after an exhausting day trying to help his friends' families, Alvarez-Reyes was still worried about the five co-workers he watched hide in the giant freezer.
"I don't know if they ever got out, that's all I want to know," he said, gathering with friends at a neighborhood taco restaurant to rehash the trauma of the day and trade rumors about who will be deported.

So the guy aided in a possible murder by not reporting those hiding in the freezer and THAT WAS SOMEONE ELSE’S FAULT?
I think the guy confessed to breaking the law IMO.
160 illegals arrested.......I don’t see any mention of the owners being arrested.
these people BROKE THE LAW
THEY ARE NOT ‘VICTIMS’ DO YOU UNDERSTAND?
let me spell it out I-L-L-E-G-A-L (for the people in Rio-Linda, this means they did not obey the rules)
That is why they are in trouble. Not because of EVIL white people. JESUS!
I will never understand the thought processes of some people.
Five Frozen Bodies Found in Freezer: Bush’s Fault! Says Elvira Arellano
Now two Ohio locations harbor frozen aliens: Fairfield and Wright-Patterson Air Force Base
The names’ Koch, as in Doro Bush Koch.
Maybe they just wrote ‘immigrant’ instead of ‘illegal’ just by mistake? /s
Their concept of illegal is that it’s a sick bird.
ill eagle? sorry.:-)
Or maybe a jewish bird as in the case of seagal. I mean no offence to our Jewish freepers.
We need a lot more East European immigrants and a lot fewer uneducated, non-English speaking illegal immigrants from Mexico/Central America
CHICKEN RUN.

This article presents information about Koch Foods. In 2005, Koch sold $1.4 billion worth of chicken, making it the fifth-largest poultry producer in the U.S. In the next three years, CEO and owner Joseph Grendys wants to make Koch the third-biggest, right behind industry giants Tyson Foods Inc. and Pilgrim’s Pride Corp. Grendys is laying expansion plans even as the entire poultry industry is being pounded by avian flu hysteria in Europe and Asia. In May 2006, Koch bought an Alabama chicken company out of bankruptcy for $58 million. Sylvest Farms Inc. should add at least $200 million in annual sales to Koch. Reading Level (Lexile): 1150;
This statement caught my eye...
“Still, only 37 percent viewed deportation as a solution, while about one in four said workers should be allowed to stay if they have jobs and pass background checks.”
Is it just me, or is this sentence purposefully deceiving.
One in four = 25%, which is less than 37%...
Then why use the word “only” when referring to the 37%
of us who understand the threat of illegal immigration?
Appears they’re trying to confuse the issue..
