Federal authorities say poultry processor Koch Foods Inc. has paid more than $536,000 in fines
stemming from a 2007 immigration raid in southwest Ohio.
Authorities say they rounded up 161 workers who were in this country illegally at the
Koch plant in Fairfield, 13 miles north of Cincinnati.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Friday the fines have to do with filling out
and verifying employment forms, and that Park Ridge, Ill.-based Koch has taken steps to avoid
future violations.
An attorney for company has said there was no evidence that anyone at Koch knowingly
broke the law.
