Postville Raid Detainees Database

The Des Moines Register has compiled a database of the immigrant detainees, and their cases, who were arrested in May in the immigration raids in Postville, Iowa.  Nearly 400 workers were arrested on Monday, May 13, at Agriprocessors Inc., the nation’s largest kosher slaughterhouse. The workplace raid was the largest in Iowa history. The 390 people arrested represent almost one-third of the plant’s 968 workers. Officials haven’t released a comprehensive list of those detained in the raid, but the Register has been updating this list of detainees as names are made available.
