Dozens of criminal illegal aliens were arrested on June 10 at an Omaha, Nebraska, food plant. All were using the stolen identities of Americans to lend legitimacy to their employment standing.
The Department of Homeland Security put the number of those arrested at "approximately 70." All were detained during an Immigration and Customs Enforcement raid at a Green Valley Foods plant. ICE agents, carrying warrants, entered the facility to begin making arrests following a months-long investigative effort.
Mark Zito leads the regional Homeland Security Investigations office involved in the case.
He said some people in the area have offered misguided interpretations of the arrests.
"There have been individuals who have gone on the record recently referring to the identity thieves we arrested last week as 'good, hardworking, and honest,' " he said. "These so-called honest workers have caused an immeasurable amount of financial and emotional hardship for innocent Americans. If pretending to be someone you aren't in order to steal their lives isn't blatant, criminal dishonesty, I don't know what is."
… Local KETV in Omaha reported that a special agent involved in the case said enforcement officers knew who they were looking for.
"This was a targeted criminal investigation looking to find the people that were stealing identities." The agent was asked by a KETV reporter about the best recommendation for people in the U.S. illegally. The agent replied, "Self-deport."
A release from ICE described one of the stolen identity victims as "working for nearly 15 years to regain their identity and fix the financial damage done by an illegal alien who was working at Glenn Valley Foods."

From the valley of the jolly - Ho, Ho, Ho. Green Valley Foods.
re: “All were using the stolen identities of Americans to lend legitimacy to their employment standing. “
Didn’t seem unusual to the employer that their Spanish-speaking-only employees were all named ‘Smith’ and ‘Jones’ and ‘Cartwright’?
Wouldn't it be interesting if names and info from democrat voters were used to start identity theft for this purpose, especially those who are activists for illegal aliens?
Hmm ,, Omaha Steaks too ?
Fine the employers BIGLY!!!
Make an undeniable and costly example out of the stupid/greedy jackasses.
DoJ needs to start prosecuting employers like this. No way they didn’t know.
The name of the site raided was GLENN VALLEY foods, so I am not sure where that GREEN valley in the article came from.
The latest on this is a bunch of leftists and immigrants have ambushed the Omaha Public Schools board with expectations for more support from the school district for the poor families that were victims of this ICE raid and had a parent deported, etc.
It is maddening that all these demands are being made. Any other criminals being “sent away” for years or life, no one seems to think their families are owed a bunch of free stuff.
lol !!! Now that’s funny !
This is the legal ace in the hole. Most of the working illegals are using bogus identification, which itself is a crime. So...they’re all criminals.
25K a head should get somebody’s attention.
Jail some HR personal for a few years.
I couldn’t agree more.
It WOULD be.
Smart money is on Bristol Meats out of Indiana replacing their workers immediately.
Exactly.
Identity theft should be regarded as kidnapping IMHO.
A number of years ago, I received a call from the AZ department of revenue. He asked if I ever lived or work in Yuma. I told him I had not and asked why. He said someone has been using my SSN. He then said he would stop the person from using it.
I told him to let go. He asked why. I told him it is helping increase my SS contribution and ultimately, my SS check.
He said he could not allow it to continue.
Peyton Manning was calling for this for years.
So maybe they could round up and deport Obama for using a stolen SS#?
Nice! More jobs for Americans!
