Iowa man pleads guilty in illegal immigrant case
The Associated Press
CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa —
Federal prosecutors say a Dubuque contractor has pleaded guilty in a case involving illegal immigrants.
The U.S. attorney's office says Thomas Kehoe pleaded guilty on Friday to one count of conspiracy to transport, harbor and encourage illegal immigrants to live in the country.
Prosecutors say between 2009 and 2011, Kehoe conspired to recruit and hire illegal construction workers as roofers for his construction company, Always on Time Construction. Officials say he hired as many as 20 illegal workers.
Kehoe faces up to 10 years in prison. A sentencing date hasn't been scheduled.
Prosecutors say as part of a plea deal, Kehoe will forfeit assets and property traced to the illegal activity, including $140,000 and three vehicles.
