MONTE VISTA, Colo. — Special agents from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on Tuesday executed criminal arrest warrants for three employees who worked at “Worley & McCullough Inc.,” a potato farm and processing plant here; 19 illegal aliens were also arrested on administrative immigration violations while a search warrant was executed at the facility.

The April 17 operation followed an 11-month investigation into the alleged illegal hiring practices at the facility.  The six-count November 2006 criminal indictment had only been unsealed late yesterday.
