85 illegals sentenced from meat plant raid
Excellent. Why screw around? No need for long, drawn out court matters. Just fess up, take your punishment, and get out. That leaves a whole bunch more to go.
Federal prosecutors say 85 people arrested in last week's immigration raid at a meatpacking plant in Postville have been sentenced on federal charges.
They are part of a group of nearly 400 people arrested at the Agriprocessors plant.
They pleaded guilty yesterday in Waterloo. The U.S. attorney's office says it's the largest number of defendants to plead guilty and be sentenced in one day.
