Restaurant’s Deceptive Act: Imposter “Priest” Unmasked in Unscrupulous Employee Scheme

In a shocking incident of employer misconduct, a California restaurant has come under scrutiny for orchestrating a scheme involving a fake priest who coerced employees into confessing alleged wrongdoings against the establishment.

CNA reported that the Catholic Diocese of Sacramento has firmly stated that there is no association between the imposter and the diocese, branding the situation as a complete fabrication.

The U.S. Department of Labor, condemning this act as one of the most brazen displays of employer corruption, recently reached a settlement with Che Garibaldi Inc., the company operating Taqueria Garibaldi restaurants in Sacramento and Roseville, California.

The federal investigation was prompted by multiple allegations of violations of labor laws.

During the legal proceedings, an employee testified that the restaurant operator arranged for someone pretending to be a priest to hear confessions during working hours. They found the conversations to be peculiar, as the fake priest focused on work-related matters rather than personal sins.

Under the guise of spiritual cleansing, the imposter probed the employees about theft, tardiness, and any ill intentions towards the employer. Feeling intimidated, several workers reluctantly participated in these questionable confessions.

As part of the settlement, Che Garibaldi LLC and its operators were ordered pay back wages and damages to 35 employees, plus civil penalties to the Department of Labor.
