Carpenters union boss Michael Forde sentenced to 11 years in prison | Irish News | IrishCentral: "Ex-Carpenters union boss Michael Forde was sentenced to 11 years in prison after pleading guilty to corruption.
The main witness against Forde and other union leaders was a former Irish construction company owner James Murray who admitted he had bribed Forde with $100,000 dollars to look the other way on union jobs.
During his time as head of the heavily Irish Local 608 union, Forde allowed the hiring of many illegal immigrant Irish carpenters and paid them less wages and pocketed the difference with the union rate."
