A company that owns 11 McDonald's restaurants in Nevada was fined one million dollars Wednesday after pleading guilty to employing 58 illegal immigrants.
The company, Mack Associates Inc., knew the employees were illegal immigrants and had offered them names and social security numbers belonging to other people, the US Justice Department said.

The company pleaded guilty in federal court in Las Vegas to conspiracy to encourage and induce an alien's unlawful residence in the United States and aiding and abetting an alien to remain in the country, the department said.

The company's director of operations also pleaded guilty to aiding and abetting an alien to remain in the country.

And the former vice president of Mack Associates pleaded guilty to inducing an illegal alien to remain in the United States and faces a possible sentence of up to five years in prison and a 250,000 dollar five.

About 30 of the illegal workers have returned to their native countries while the rest were allowed to stay in the United States until the case closes.

So I guess this company will be legally liable to the people whose ID they stole? I hope they get their pants sued off and lose ALL their franchises.

This is really good news but I hope the owner gets some jail time. finally someone actually enforced the law on aiding and abetting, and Nevada no less!

let's hope this sends a message to everyone who hires illegals.....

For once, the company and its officers instead of just the illegal workers!

ITS ABOUT TIME. AND WE NEED TO SEE MANY MORE OF THESE OWNERS DOING JAIL TIME. THEY SHOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO GET A BUSINESS LICENSE AGAIN. LET THEM WORK AT THE DEPRESSED WAGES THAT THEY HAVE HELPED TO CREATE.

I hope this sends a ripple effect throughout the fast food franchises of America!

HIRE AMERICAN CITIZENS!

SHOCKED!
Nevada actually did something

FINALLY

SHUT MY MOUTH!!!

Now...were the illegals deported????

It is about time. But million is not enough. :P

Think about all the McDonalds; and illegals working there in the front, waiting on customers. These illegals do not even understand English. I have seen this locally.
