ICE Raids Net Innocent People



 This article seems a bit vague, but that could be because the reporter was getting conflicting information. 
 FORT MORGAN, Colo. (AP) - U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials in a statement announced the arrest of 11 people in Fort Morgan. KUSA-TV reports that the raids took place at Wildcat Dairy that resulted in 40 other people being detained but later let go. The station reports that 50 of the dairy's 60 workers are gone.
 Not only are the cows distressed, no doubt many people are as well.  FORTY (yes, 40) were apparently detained and eventually released, and eleven (11) were arrested.  That seems like a WIDE sweep.   Did those 40  workers decide working where they may be targeted wasn't worth the emotional toll on their well-being? 

Police Chief Keith Kuretich (KEHR-etch) and dairy owner Ed Wilgenburg did not immediately return messages left by The Associated Press.  

ICE says 20 egregious violators were indicted by a state grand jury on accusations that they possessed or used fraudulent "green cards" and Social Security cards to obain employment in the United States.
Is it that ICE could find only 11 of the 20 indicted people?  Or was information later deemed to be faulty resulting in the other 9 being released?
