A local business leader has pleaded guilty to federal charges of employing an illegal alien, according to court records.

Juanita Sue Salyers was indicted back in June along with her employer, White Dairy Ice Cream.

Federal prosecutors said the defendants knowingly harbored an undocumented alien for financial gain. The government agreed to drop the indictment, which would carry stricter penalties, and to file separate criminal complaints against the defendants in exchange for a guilty plea.

Officials said sentencing will happen at a later date.
