“Mora, 41, who has three children, took in his two nieces before Christmas. Their father, Mora’s brother-in-law, was deported to Mexico after a Dec. 12 raid at a local meatpacking plant. Federal agents raided Swift & Co. plants here and in five other states and arrested more than 1,200 illegal immigrants as part of a probe into stolen and fake IDs that such immigrants allegedly have used to get jobs in the USA.

Exactly two months after the raid, the effects in this town are still apparent. Families are fractured, some illegal immigrants have left town or gone underground, and theres renewed debate about immigration laws. Police and some longtime residents say its about time there was a crackdown. Others say they feel new empathy.”
