Beardstown plant site of ICE operation over identity theft

Carolyn Hileman* | April 6, 2007

Two managers of a Beardstown cleaning company were arrested today and charged with helping illegal immigrants steal the identities of U.S. citizens. Identity-theft charges were filed against the plant manager and personnel adminsitrator at Quality Service Integrity Incorporated, a contractor for the Cargill meat-processing plant in Beardstown. Officials claim they provided false identities to new employees and gave them information about obtaining false identification documents, including social security numbers. Federal officials also arrested eleven other QSI employees and took 49 illegal immigrants into custody.
