COLORADO: Judge orders couple out of U.S. for running work camp for illegal aliens

Colorado -- A Hudson couple will be deported to Mexico for running a work camp for illegal immigrants, then keeping a portion of their pay in exchange for helping them enter the United States.

Moises Rodriguez, 65, and Maria Rodriguez, 61, were arrested last year on federal charges of transporting and harboring illegal immigrants and employing smuggled aliens.

U.S. District Court Judge Edward W. Nottingham today sentenced the Rodriguezes to time served, a total of about 11 months. He also ordered them each to pay a $2,000 fine and to be transferred to the custody of federal immigration officials.
