Covering Up Kosher Crimes

It figures that the New York Times would only give you a half-assed, upside-down investigative article on this Zionist drug and sex factory.

First, the kosher meat plant that was Israeli drug factory.

That sure DISAPPEARED from whatever minimal MSM coverage it received, huh?

But ZIONIST CONTROL of the MSM has NOTHING TO DO WITH IT, uh-huh!

"After raid, underage immigrants fuel labor inquiries; Describe lapses, long shifts at Iowa meat plant" by Julia Preston, New York Times News Service | July 27, 2008

"I felt like I was a slave" -- Elmer L. who said he was 16 when he started working on the plant's killing floors, said he worked 17-hour shifts, six days a week

POSTVILLE, Iowa - When federal immigration agents raided the kosher meatpacking plant here in May and rounded up 389 illegal immigrants, they found more than 20 underage workers, some as young as 13.

Now those young immigrants have begun to tell investigators about their jobs. Some said they worked shifts of 12 hours or more, using knives and saws to slice freshly killed beef. Some worked through the night, sometimes six nights a week.

One, a Guatemalan named Elmer L. who said he was 16 when he started working on the plant's killing floors, said he worked 17-hour shifts, six days a week. In an affidavit, he said he was constantly tired and did not have time to do anything but work and sleep. "I was very sad, and I felt like I was a slave," he said.

At first, labor officials said the raid had disrupted federal and state investigations underway at Agriprocessors Inc., the nation's largest kosher plant. The raid has drawn criticism for what some see as harsh tactics against the immigrants, with little action taken against their employers.

But in the aftermath of the arrests, labor investigators have reaped a bounty of new evidence from the testimony of illegal immigrants, teenagers, and adults, who were caught in the raid. In formal declarations, immigrants have described pervasive labor violations at the plant, testimony that could result in criminal charges for Agriprocessors executives, labor law specialists said.

Out of work and facing deportation proceedings, many of the immigrants say they have nothing to lose in speaking up about the conditions in the plant. They have told investigators they were routinely put to work without safety training, and were forced to work long shifts without overtime or rest time. Underage workers said their bosses knew how young they were.

Because of the dangers of the work, it is illegal in Iowa for a company to employ anyone under 18 on the floor of a meatpacking plant. In a statement, Agriprocessors said it did not employ workers under 18 and would fire any underage worker found to have presented false documents to obtain work.

To investigate the child labor accusations, the federal Labor Department has joined with the Iowa Division of Labor Services in cooperation with the state attorney general's office, officials for the three agencies said.

Sonia Parras Konrad, an immigration lawyer in private practice in Des Moines, is representing many of the young workers. She said she had identified 27 workers under 18 who were employed in the packing areas of the plant, most of them illegal immigrants from Guatemala, including some who were not arrested in the raid.

"Some of these boys don't even shave," Parras Konrad said. "They're goofy. They're teenagers."

Iowa labor officials said they rarely encounter child labor cases even though the state has many meatpacking plants.

"We don't normally have many underage folks working in our state," said Gail Sheridan-Lucht, a lawyer for the state Labor Department, who said she could not comment specifically on the Agriprocessors investigation.

Other investigations are also underway. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission is examining accusations of sexual harassment of women at the plant. Lawyers for the immigrants are preparing a suit under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act for wage and hour violations."

For those who fail to understand, the Zionist mafia has replaced the Cosa Nostra in AmeriKa!!

Notice how this NYT just skims the surface, too?
