Federal prosecutors will recommend that a judge impose a $37,500 fine against the company, according to a plea agreement filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Sioux Falls.
U.S. Attorney Marty Jackley said seven of the workers are being prosecuted on identity theft-type charges and the remaining eight are either at large or being processed for immigration violations.
An affidavit in the case is sealed, but a separate filing against one of the employees describes a June 24, 2008 immigration raid at the plant. It said Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents showed up to “execute criminal arrest warrants for company employees. Shortly after entering the plant, several Hispanic employees fled the plant on foot through a rear entrance.â€
