    Fl: 25 IA's arrested in Santa Rosa Mex. restaurant

    Seems like ICE is focusing on the restaurant industry these days. ....that's a good thing. There's been several raids of restaurants owned by Chinese and Mexicans that are also hiring/harboring/housing illegal alien workers.
    Don't forget that you can report suspected illegal aliens and their employers anonymously to 1-866-DHS-2ICE. This is something all of us can do.

    SANTA ROSA CO., Fla. -- Santa Rosa County investigators raided two Mexican restaurants and arrested ten suspected illegal immigrants, making a total of 23 illegal immigrant arrests this week. They were working at a popular Mexican restaurant...La Hacienda.

    Investigators believe the suspects paid up to $200 for other people's social security numbers and used them for employment. Most of the numbers were from small children, people who are deceased, or people living abroad.

    Scott Haines with the Santa Rosa County Sheriff's Office told FOX10 News, "It's not just a problem of undocumented workers, issue is identity theft, they're using social security numbers that belong to legitimate hard working people."

    Investigators first found out about the issue through a complaint. The Santa Rosa County Sheriff's office is now joining up with Escambia, Okaloosa and Walton counties.

    We spoke by phone with a man who claimed to be one of the owners of the restaurant. He says he didn't know the workers might be illegal. No one else affiliated with the restaurant has been accused of wrong doing.

    Well i sure needed these raids today to raise my spirits after th Romney deal!!
    At least ICE is not sitting around just twiddleing their tumbs, although I think they could be doing more, this is probably just enough to pacify Americans!!
