Thomaston police arrested two illegal Hispanic construction workers at the old Martha Mill facility last week.
Audoro Fernandez and Flores Santiago Vazquez were employed by 325 East Goodrich, LLC and were observed by officers removing flooring. The two were using false social security numbers and false employment information. Fernandez and Vazquez have been turned over to immigration officials.
Mathew Molenkamp the supervisor on the site was arrested and charged with operating the demolition without a permit. The work had been ongoing for months after the permit expired in 2010. Piles of lumber and debris litter the site and in addition to the lack of a permit, the company had no bond to protect the city in the event the company failed to clean up properly.
325 East Goodrich, LLC is owned by Mathew P. Appelget of Richmond, Virginia.
