Foley man gets probation for hiring illegal immigrants - al.com: "A federal judge in Mobile sentenced a Baldwin County businessman Monday to five years' probation — three more than the prosecution's recommendation — for hiring illegal immigrants.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Sonja Bivins also ordered Gerald Jones, 56, to pay a $24,000 fine — $1,000 for each count.

The Foley man admitted in March that he hired illegal immigrants for his now-closed labor-finding company, Skyline Services."
