DES MOINES, IOWA (AP) -- A man implicated in an immigration scam at a Marshalltown meatpacking plant has pleaded guilty to harboring an illegal immigrant.
   
Christopher Lamb is a human resources manager at Swift & Company. He was arrested last summer after authorities recorded him coaching an illegal immigrant on how to use fake documents to get hired.
   
In his plea, Lamb also admitted hiding an illegal immigrant at the plant from June 3rd to June 25th.
   
Lamb has been sentenced to 12 months of probation.
