More than 50 security guards hired to protect asylum seekers bused upstate from New York City by a troubled migrant contractor are working without proper authorization, a New York Department of State investigation found.
The department on Friday notified the two security companies that hired the guards — Trace Assets Protection Service L.L.C.
and Wawanda Investigations and Security Company L.L.C.
In some cases, it was not even clear if the guards were employees of the two security firms.
“Please take notice that the continued employment of the above individuals, unless properly registered with the Department, is a continued and willful violation of law,” Ms. Clark wrote.
