    Now, Baez and Avila-Guel, a Mexican couple who are legal U.S. permanent residents, could lose everything after being accused of concealing and harboring immigrants who were in the U.S. illegally. It’s a rare case in which business owners face criminal charges rather than just a fine.

    I’m sure not being white citizens has nothing to do with them being charged, no sir. Must be a coincidence.

      Yeah this bothers me. They aren’t going after the farm owners who do this, the people who own the slaughterhouses, etch.
