Postville Redux

We have written much about the massive ICE immigration raid in Postville, Iowa last May.  Now, the N.Y. Times reports that two supervisors at a the meatpacking plant were arrested Thursday on criminal immigration charges. Federal prosecutors said they had also issued an arrest warrant for the plant manager. They were the first employees who were not rank-and-file workers to be arrested since the round up at the plant on May 12. Unions and immigrant groups had criticized immigration officials for arresting workewrs, with no punishment of the employer.
