DENVER -- A federal judge has scheduled oral arguments for Friday in a lawsuit filed by a union representing workers at a Swift & Co. plant that was raided by immigration officials last month.

The United Food and Commercial Workers union alleges the federal government violated workers' due process rights during the raids in a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Denver.

A total of 1,282 people were arrested Dec. 12 at Swift meat plants in six states in the raids, which Immigrations and Customs Enforcement said were part of a crackdown on an identity-theft scheme. The arrests included about 260 workers in Greeley.


Federal prosecutors have responded in court documents that workers were not forced to talk to immigration agents and that those who were arrested were informed of their rights.

those who were arrested were informed of their rights.

NOW wait just one minute here........... WHAT Rights?

First of all the shrub and company just removed EVERYONE'S rights in October.

Secondly I still want to know where the missing 782 and something went to. They only held 500 in the National Guard camp.

Is it possible they are the children behind prison barbed wire fence in Taylor Tx?
