Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) conducted its largest single-state enforcement operation in history, in six central Mississippi cities on Aug. 7.

ICE’s investigative arm, Homeland Security Investigations, swept up 680 illegal immigrants at seven meat processing plants, while executing federal search warrants. Agents also seized business records at all plants.

The arrests were the culmination of a yearlong investigation into five companies, according to ICE.
