Sessions Says He’s ‘Not Shedding Tears’ Over Tennessee Immigration Raid

Nashville, Tenn. (AP) -- The nation's top law enforcement officer said Tuesday that he's "not shedding tears" over an immigration raid at a Tennessee meat processing plant where 97 workers were arrested.

Advocates for the workers said the comments Attorney General Jeff Sessions made at a law enforcement conference suggest he's "out of touch" with what happened as a result of the April 5 raid at the Southeastern Provision Plant in Bean Station, Tennessee, since the plant remains open and nobody who benefited from the workers' labor has been charged.
