SAN DIEGO -- The founder of a Southern California fence-building company is due in federal court in San Diego this week to be sentenced for hiring illegal immigrants.
In December, Riverside-based Golden State Fence Company agreed to pay nearly $5 million, one of the largest fines for immigration violations.
Even more striking: two company executives pleaded guilty to felony charges of knowingly hiring illegal immigrants, which carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison. At the time, federal prosecutors said they planned to seek a prison term of at least six months.
Due to be sentenced Wednesday are Mel Kay, the company's founder, chairman and president, and Michael McLaughlin, manager of the company's Oceanside office.
