If some one gets hurt you will be open to some major legal
problems if in the U.S..

Not if he is employing illegal aliens. They are not likely to sue.


not necessarily so....

Given that two of the defendants didn't even defend themselves and
the third settled out of court that isn't much of a 'precedent'.

Back in the early days of the Icelandic Allthing there were basicly
two punishments. One was a fine. For example, if someone murdered
your brother they might be required to pay you 200 pieces of gold.
But if you wound up supporting his widow and children, or if the
murder was particularly foul, like backstabbing then that might
be increased. OTOH, if your brother was kind of a jerk the fine
might be reduced and if he had it comming to him, no compensation
would be required.

The second punishment was outlawry. If the wrongdoer could not
pay or refused to pay the fine then he was declared an outlaw which
meant you could kill him and not be fined.

Outlawry has long passed into the history books. Today, no matter
how evil a person is, it is still possible to commit a crime (or a
tort)
against him and be punished for it.

Not to conclude that the defendants in the suit above actually did
committ the tort in question but if someone does commit a tort
agains an illegal alien there is no reason why they should not be
allowed to sue, same as anybody else, and then be deported right
after they collect.
