    Robert Brake sentenced for employing illegal immigrants

    Robert Brake sentenced for employing illegal immigrants

    1:51 PM, Sep 13, 2012

    St. Louis, MO (KSDK) - A 33-year-old Byrnes Mill man was sentenced Thursday to fraud charges involving his employing illegal immigrants to support his landscaping business, U.S. Robert Callahan said.

    According to court documents, between March 2007 and February 2010, Robert Brake and his company, identified as Brake Landscaping & Lawncare, illegally sub-contracted H-2B workers on a weekly basis at a profit of more than $2 an hour per worker.

    The indictment also alleged that Brake incorporated Brake Snow and Ice Removal to facilitate year-round employment of temporary H-2B visa workers that didn't actually exist. The snow and ice removal company was the same company as the landscaping business.

    Brake pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor charge of employing illegal aliens in June 2012. The landscaping company pleaded guilty to one felony count to commit visa fraud that same day.

    Robert Brake and the company were sentenced to two years of probation and paid a $145,000 forfeiture.

    The H-2B non-immigrant visa program permits employers to hire foreign workers and perform temporary, non-agricultural services on a one-time, seasonal, peak-load or intermittent basis. There is a set limit on the number of foreign workers who may receive H-2B visa status during each government fiscal year.

    It seems that they are really more interested in the MONEY and the forfeitures. They don't deport the illegals as they are supposed to, they just go after the cash.

    Yes and that is unfortunate because these consistent slaps on the wrist aren't going to get the job done. I say start sending them to prison for a couple years and the other abusers will think twice before taking the illegal road to financial success.
