GREENVILLE, S.C. - Federal agents say they have detained more than 300 suspected illegal immigrants in a raid on a South Carolina chicken processing plant.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Kevin McDonald says the raid began shortly before 9 a.m. Tuesday during a shift change at House of Raeford's Columbia Farms plant.
Federal prosecutors and immigration agents have been investigating the plant's hiring practices. McDonald says 12 people have been arrested in past months, and seven have pleaded guilty.
McDonald says a recent review of 825 workers' immigration paperwork showed false information for more than 775.
A woman at the company's Rose Hill, N.C., headquarters had no immediate comment.
The raid was in Greenville, about 100 miles southwest of Charlotte, N.C.
Note that 94% of them were using fradulent documents. This is a felony.
300 caught, another 11,999,700 +/- to go......
