Feds Arrest Former Agriprocessors CEO

The dominos are continuing to fall in the case against Agriprocessors, the largest US kosher slaughterhouse. The company was fined $10 million on Wednesday. And Thursday, the former CEO, Shalom Rubashkin, was arrested by the feds. He’s now facing charges that could land him in prison for 22 years. In the history of meat industry sleaze, there’s probably never been a more unethical company than Agriprocessors. It’s great to see one of its key leaders facing felony charges—let’s hope there’s much more to come. Link.
