WILMINGTON - Eight illegal immigrants from Honduras have pleaded guilty to federal charges related to a multistate scheme to steal and resell baby formula and over-the-counter drugs.
Officials say the products are worth over $2.5 million.
The defendants admitted in federal court in Wilmington Tuesday to conspiring and to aiding and abetting the transport of stolen baby formula across state lines. They will be sentenced April 25.
Federal prosecutors say shoplifters targeted more than 50 retail outlets beginning in September 2003 and ending in August 2004. More than 121 pallets of baby formula were prepared for shipment out of state, often to Columbus, Ohio, and Milwaukee.
Several of these defendants were arrested in August after federal agents seized a truckload of stolen baby formula and over-the-counter medications at a shipping terminal in Greensboro

So, next time that a $2.5 million theft ring is busted, which is composed of native-born American citizens, will you breathlessly rush to post it and put (American citizens) in the title?

Last week illegals were caught stealing diabetic glucometer sticks and now this week baby formula. I must admit, they are hard working shoplifters.

If you can bash an American that does not want to share his house with trillions illegal aliens... with that kind of a ringworm brain accusation.. Just making the point that not all theft rings are manned by illegal aliens as super duper whatever was breathlessly trying to imply.
And it seems I have hurt super duper whatever's itty bitty ego.
