JUDGE THROWS OUT RICO SUIT AGAINST TYSON
Anti-immigrant groups were hoping to use this case as a model to go after employers around the country. The civil action against Tyson was based on the Racketeering Influenced and Corruption Act and claimed that the company was knowingly hiring unauthorized immigrants to suppress wages for US workers. The judge held that the "plaintiffs failed to demonstrate Tyson was harboring or concealing illegal aliens" in plants in Tennessee, Alabama, Texas, Virginia and Missouri.
