The owner of a Buffalo home-improvement company pleaded guilty to engaging in a pattern and practice of employing illegal aliens, the U.S. Attorney’s office reported on Thursday.

Klyde Bynum, of Buffalo, owner of Bynum Brothers Home Improvements, admitted to a misdemeanor charge before U.S. Magistrate Judge Jeremiah J. McCarthy.

Seven illegal aliens from Mexico and one from Guatemala were found living in a home on Glenwood Avenue earlier this year, and federal agents learned they were working for Bynum, prosecutor Jack Rogowski said.
