The Immigration Reform Law Institute (IRLI) has filed a RICO and Fair Housing discrimination lawsuit against Connolly Properties, Inc. and other defendants on behalf of a former employee and several tenants in the Federal District Court in New Jersey. The lawsuit asks the court to find the Defendants liable for unlawfully harboring illegal aliens, laundering the proceeds of illegl alien rental income, discriminating against U.S. citizen tenants, and mistreating U.S. citizen tenants and a former employee in the process.
“Mistreatment of U.S. citizens is just another consequence Americans face daily when we tolerate the exploitation of illegal aliens for business gain,” said Mike Hethmon, General Counsel for IRLI. The United States Department of Justice is currently prosecuting a criminal RICO case in a federal district court in Kentucky alleging many of the same issues. See complete story
