WEST DES MOINES — A second supervisor arrested after a large raid at a kosher meatpacking plant in Iowa has pleaded guilty to immigration charges.
Martin De La Rosa-Loera (loh-EHR'-uh) appeared in federal court Wednesday on a charge of aiding and abetting the harboring of undocumented immigrants.
The 43-year-old was arrested in July following a raid two months earlier at the Agriprocessors Inc. plant in Postville.
Another supervisor, Juan Carlos Guerrero-Espinoza, pleaded guilty last week to the same charge, as well as conspiracy to hire illegal immigrants.
De La Rosa-Loera faces a maximum of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
Nearly 400 people were arrested in the immigration raid, one of the nation's largest.
