These individuals have been illegally residing and working in the United States; they may also have been exploited as part of this alleged criminal conspiracy.\u00a0 During the execution of these search warrants Aug. 8, 133 illegal workers were administratively arrested for immigration violations; some will be issued notices to appear before a federal immigration judge and released from custody; the rest will remain in ICE custody pending immigration court proceedings.<\/p>\n<p>Law enforcement believes the alleged conspirators, 17 individuals located in multiple states, colluded to create an illegal alien workforce in their respective businesses.\u00a0 By doing so, they defrauded the U.S. government and created an unfair advantage over their competition businesses. Additionally, authorities suspect the illegal aliens who were knowingly hired as part of this alleged conspiracy were exploited by the conspirators through force, coercion, or threat of arrest and\/or deportation. Specifically, these illegal aliens were allegedly required to cash their paychecks at an illegal remittance business for a fee, have tax money deducted from their pay even though this money was never paid to the government, and were coerced to remain quiet about this criminal activity.<\/p>\n<p>Search warrants were served at the following businesses and locations:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Christensen Farms with numerous locations in Appleton, Minnesota; Sleepy Eye, Minnesota; and Atkinson, Nebraska;<\/li>\n<li>Elkhorn River Farms in O\u2019Neill, Nebraska;<\/li>\n<li>O\u2019Neill Ventures in O\u2019Neill, Nebraska;<\/li>\n<li>La Herradura Restaurant in O\u2019Neill, Nebraska;<\/li>\n<li>El Mercadito (grocery store) in O\u2019Neill, Nebraska;<\/li>\n<li>A private ranch in O\u2019Neill, Nebraska;<\/li>\n<li>La Herradura Restaurant in Stromsburg, Nebraska;<\/li>\n<li>GJW LLC with three locations in Ainsworth, Nebraska;<\/li>\n<li>J.E.
