Central Ky. businessman sentenced for hiring illegal immigrants
The Associated Press
LOUISVILLE, Ky. --A man who pleaded guilty to knowingly hiring illegal immigrants to work at his central Kentucky restaurant was sentenced Monday to home confinement and probation.
Jian Chai Lin, 35, of Radcliff in Hardin County, was also ordered to forfeit $42,788 that was previously seized by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, according to the U.S. attorney's office in Louisville.
U.S. District Judge John G. Heyburn II sentenced Lin to six months of home confinement and two years' probation.
Lin admitted hiring 10 illegal immigrants to work at his Golden China Buffet in Radcliff.
His brother, Jian Tian Lin, pleaded guilty to similar charges and was sentenced in December to seven months in prison, plus two years of supervised release.
Prosecutors said the brothers are also illegal immigrants and will be turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement for detention and deportation proceedings after serving their sentences.
