Michael Devine, one of the plaintiffs, said the settlement [of $324.5 million] is unjust. In a letter he wrote to the judge he said the settlement represents only one-tenth of the $3 billion in compensation the 64,000 workers could have made if the defendants had not colluded.[19] The final settlement was for "$415 million and other companies settled for $20 million." Remember, wage theft and related crimes are wide-spread because they are so profitable and because people don't get thrown into jail over them.
