There are about 475,000 illegal immigrants in Georgia. In September agents from the Immigration and Customs Enforcement swooped in on the tiny town of Stillmore, Georgia, arresting about 130 illegal workers. Those that weren't arrested left town or went into hiding. Now, the population of Stillmore is 80 percent of what it used to be. Philip Graitcer visited Stillmore and spoke with some of those who are still there.
