That is the question Daron Keith Stalvey, a Horry County contractor is probably asking himself after pleading guilty to hiring illegal immigrants and tax evasion. Stalvey Construction Company, Inc. and some other small businesses of his were used to conceal earned income. Stalvey billed jobs in the name of his other entities and then claimed Stalvey Construction expenses as tax deductions.

A search was done in May of 2007, where Company records showed that wages were reported for legal workers. However, nothing was reported for the illegal workers nor did Stalvey ask for or keep records of personal identification. This case was investigated by the IRS and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which resulted in the arrest and deportation of 13 illegal immigrants.
