United States immigration authorities have arrested 475 people in a raid on a Hyundai manufacturing site in Georgia, Steve Schrank, a special agent in charge of Homeland Securities Investigations Atlanta, said at a press conference on Friday.
The Hyundai facility, located in Ellabell, Georgia – approximately 30 miles west of Savannah – was raided “as part of an ongoing criminal investigation into allegations of unlawful employment practices and other serious federal crimes,” according to a statement from the Department of Homeland Security.
If the charge is unlawful employment practices maybe they should arrest the management instead
Well, good news!
The raid was authorized by a judge-issued search warrant following a monthslong investigation of the facility, Schrank said. The investigation of the worksite remains active, he added, but no charges of wrongdoing have been filed.
…Oh.
Supposedly a few executives from Korea were arrested in the raid. Although I’d guess its not for illegal hiring specifically and only because they are not Americans so got treated like the workers by ICE.

“Inauguration fund”
100% straight-ass bribery. Straight into his pockets.
Here is what I don’t understand - why don’t they arrest the board members and executives of such companies?
I mean, if you actually cared about “illegals” working here. Seems it would be much cheaper and much more effective, but this is never done.
Gee, I wonder why?
475 people taken into ICE custody
but no charges of wrongdoing have been filed.
I am so very deeply confused.
They can just kidnap people now.
It was in the news and everything.
Surely this is a boon for the manufacturing industry /s
I’m pretty sure the UAW doesn’t represent workers in American Hyundai plants and they’ve been trying to. This sounds all too familiar.

What a turd.
I feel for the workers, but fuck Hyundai. They put out vehicles that can be stolen by literal children. Ask me how I know.
