Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) reportedly detained more than 100 undocumented immigrants on Tuesday as part of a raid at a manufacturing company in Texas.
ICE detained 160 workers at a trailer manufacturer known as Load Trail, according to ABC News.
The network notes that the company had been previously charged with knowingly hiring undocumented workers.
“I knew these were clearly illegals. This is not the way we are supposed to be hiring,” Katrina Berger, the Department of Homeland Security's special agent in charge of investigations, told ABC News. “They told me to keep doing my job — that if they were visited by ICE again, they would simply pay the fine and go on.”
