Behrmann Meat Processing and Behrmann Yorkshire Farms have been ordered to give the United States government $50,000 worth of properties and pay a $5,000 fine for hiding illegal aliens as workers.
The Behrmann companies pleaded guilty and court documents indicate they knew they had illegal workers and hid them in buildings and other places from February, 2004, to May, 2008.
The Behrmanns operate in Clinton County, Illinois.
The court ordered Dennis and Scott Behrmann to give up three properties where they hid workers. They will have to take compliance training and open their packing plant and farm to employment compliance inspections.
Nothing was said about the fate of the illegal workers. I guess they just got trashed after all their hard work.
