why would they do it in north county san diego, ?! And why just a few stores. I am actually checking out places to move in the area, not sure if it is still a good idea..................................

weird. they chose those three stores out of how many in north county? the fact that they invited the news crews along makes it seem like it was really just for show. i'm guessing that the attorneys that rep these stores should have plenty to work with.


About 40 law enforcement personnel were involved in Thursday's raids, authorities said. They included Escondido police officers and technicians, sheriff's deputies, and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.

a clue perhaps.
