News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

53 former employees at Swift & Company meat processing plant in Cactus, Texas, charged in federal indictments

AMARILLO, Texas - A federal grand jury here has charged 53 former employees of Swift & Company's Cactus, Texas, meat processing plant with aggravated identity theft and other various related charges.

Today's indictments were announced by U.S. Attorney Richard B. Roper, Northern District of Texas, and John Chakwin, the special agent in charge of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Office of Investigations in Dallas.

"It is a serious federal crime to hijack and steal a citizen's good name and credit to illegally stay in the United States. These federal indictments demonstrate federal law enforcement's commitment to address rampant identity theft and immigration fraud," said U.S. Attorney Roper.
