Workers' relatives came to the facility as word spread. "It's really sad and it makes a lot of people really angry and frustrated," the daughter of a detained worker said.
The raid was part of an ongoing investigation into complaints that the company may have knowingly hired people who are in the U.S. without authorization and that many of those workers were using fraudulent identification documents, the agency said. Relatives of workers came to the facility after word of the operation spread, some emotional and wondering about their loved ones,Anel Perez, the daughter of a worker who was been detained, told the station,"It's not fair. It's really sad and it makes a lot of people really angry and frustrated,"
Berger said that authorities were still vetting information and she did not have the nationalities, ages or any criminal backgrounds of those taken into custody.

dlstump 'ICE arrests more than 280 Illegal Immigrants at Texas business; biggest workplace raid in a decade.' There, fixed it for you.
Look at any large companies in Texas. I bet there are many more.
Did they arrest the owner?
Apparently the owner wasn't a Trump supporter.
We need more of these busts. To protect our jobs and to ensure decent wages for all Americans ,and those who follow our work visas
NOT ONE WAS PAYING TAXES ! SHIP THEM HOME AND CLOSE THE BUSINESS ... FOOLS --- ONE GUY WAS WORKING THERE FOR 17 YEARS NEVER PUT IN SS -- NOW HE WILL GO BACK TO HIS COUNTRY WITH CRAP ...DEMOCRATS LOVE THIS NOT PUTTING INTO SS
So much for that 'Minority Business of the Year Award'. Mental note: NEVER buy ANY refurbished electronics from ANYBODY. PERIOD.
I really wish we would hold the companies accountable as well.
ICE illegal vendor operation
We need them - countless Americans will not work at jobs where Hispanics will. They are HARD workers and our many Anericans to shame. And that’s a fact as we know.
It's about time
And somehow, the PEOPLE WHO KEEP DOING THE HIRING get off SCOTT FREE. If ICE arrested the BUSINESS OWNERS? This 'issue' would be cleared up TODAY!! Just shows that they don't want it to stop. They just want to keep receiving dollars to round up BROWN PEOPLE for PRIVATE PRISONS.
will the business owner do jail time!!!
They could break that record easy if California weren't a haven.
It's like they're coming after you soon too...
Yeap, this is Texas.
they must have gave to the Democratic party.
Did they arrest the business owners as well
Will Trump be investigated for having illegal aliens working for him? Not likely. You can’t tell me that certain people are not treated as though they are above the law. Disgusting double standards.
any word on if that number includes the employer? the owners?
good, deport them all!
What a waste of tax payer dollars.
Good. Now the businesses that knowingly hire illegals should face consequences.
Defund ICE!
Like when Trump hired 150 illegal immigrants to demolish the Bonwit Dept Store for TRUMP TOWERS and refuse to pay them. When asked about the money $4.00 per hour, they were Threatened. Deportation. Sad
So there will be stiff penalties for the company for employeeing all of them, right? 😂
Nice, ICE
Go get them boys,we must be a nation that enforces immigration
This was huge news a couple of days ago...saw it on Fox
Same thing would happen in the countries of those who were arrested had it been illegal Americans working there. Countries have laws and immigration processes, if you really want to get away from your nation then go and join the Foreign Legion and bleed for France. No excuses.
Did I miss something? I didn’t see anything in the article about the business getting in trouble for hiring the illegal workers. Why do all trump supporters get mad at the illegals but never at the business owners who chose the illegals over Americans?
Shouldn’t the bosses who hired them be arrested?
If they go to trumps golf courses how many would they have to replace or has Eric already gotten rid of them all?
Why are some people calling Trump presidency the reign of Trump? He's isn't a king. It's more like the pain or the rain of Trump where everything is dismal and gray. Like slipping into darkness, my my my, i yi yiiii. This a horrible depiction of Nazi like behaviorism.
YeA when are they coming to Vegas!!!!
Hope they have trouble getting new workers maybe they'll figure out who's gonna finally get jobs n will actually get employed or NOT who's to blame mmm
Bad thing about it is we still have to house them util they are deported ! taxpayers
If you are here illegally then you shouldn't be here..if you cannot abide by a countries laws then you should be arrested..Citizens have to abide by the law why should it be any different for illegals..
Hey, Texas! Wait 'til they come for the landscapers and pool workers!
Wow what else is new
if they start arresting the business owners who hire them this ends in a fast hurry
They got nothing else to do...
I wonder if that business owner voted for Trump.🤔
Yeah and you wonder why Democrats won't defend Americans...but put illegals over Americans...
Where is that business going to get replacement workers?
so ,,, the owner ,,, a republican ,,,, big trump supporter ? just curious
build that wall faster!!!
