SC poultry plant manager faces immigration charge
SC poultry plant manager faces immigration charge
Thursday, April 16, 2009
COLUMBIA, S.C. — The manager of a South Carolina poultry plant has been indicted on a charge he knowingly hired illegal immigrants.
Prosecutors say Barry Cronic began hiring illegal immigrants at Columbia Farms in Greenville in 2000, and kept hiring them until a raid last October. The raid found more than 300 people working at the plant who were in the county illegally.
Personnel manager Elaine Crump also was indicted Wednesday on a similar charge. She already faces 20 counts of telling workers to use falsified immigration documents.
Court records didn't show an attorney for Cronic, and a phone listing couldn't be found. Crump's lawyer was handling a case out of state and couldn't be reached.
North Carolina-based House of Raeford owns the plant. The company said it doesn't knowingly hire illegal immigrants and is cooperating with investigators.
