Quote:
The Evensons and Strehlow are charged with a variety of criminal violations, including the unlawful hiring and harboring of illegal aliens, conspiracy to defraud the IRS and tax evasion.
If convicted of all the charges, Mark faces up to 86 years in prison and a $5.33 million fine; Christopher faces up to 81 years in prison and a $5.08 million fine; and Strehlow faces a maximum prison term of 40 years and a $2 million fine.

This is exactly what needs to be done. Illegals wouldn't be here unless there was a draw courtesy of American employers.
However, I have the idea that tax evasion in this case far outweighs illegal employment in the minds of ICE, IRS, and the Labor Department. and was the driving concern for filing of charges.
In fact, I'm surprised that the Labor Department was involved at all, considering Labor Secretary Hilda Solis' hands off agreement with Napolitano. Must have been the IRS that pushed the raids.
