A federal judge sentenced Novi's Kim's Garden owner to nine months in jail after five undocumented Mexican employees who lived in his basement died in a fire.

The Freep reports that Roger Tam, 56, pleaded guilty last February to harboring five undocumented immigrants who lived in his basement and worked in his Chinese restaurant for $2,000 a month. He owned the home on Mystic Forest Drive, where the Mexican immigrants slept at night after working six days a week, 10-to-11-hour-shifts at the restaurant.
