FAYETTEVILLE — The owner of a northwest Arkansas used car business has pleaded guilty to harboring an illegal immigrant.
Kendall Wright entered the plea Monday in federal court. Wright, the owner of EZ Credit Auto Sales in Springdale, was indicted in February on five counts of harboring illegal immigrants. Four of those counts were dismissed as part of the plea deal.
Prosecutors say Wright knowingly provided an illegal immigrant a job and a car.
Wright faces up to 10 years in prison, a fine of up to $250,000 and up to three years of probation.
