“Fifty-three workers arrested in Texas during the raids at Swift & Co. earlier this week have been charged with criminal identity theft, shedding new light on victims in the state and as far away as Puerto Rico and Massachusetts.
Nationwide, more than 100 immigrants have now been charged with criminal identity theft, and that number is expected to rise through the weekend, immigration authorities said. The Swift immigration raids were the largest in history, with 1,282 immigrants detained, including 295 at the Panhandle plant in Cactus.”
