NEW BEDFORD, Massachusetts -- Rows and rows of metal stations at a processing plant, where workers typically fillet thousands of fish, stood empty yesterday following Monday's immigration raid when officials arrested 13 undocumented immigrants.
At least 25 people failed to show up for work at AML International, said Frank Ferreira, plant manager. Eight of those arrested Monday worked at AML.
Ten of the 13 people arrested have been released and have pending cases before the immigration court, a branch of the Department of Justice, said Paula Grenier, spokeswoman for the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
