Good help is hard to find, or so the saying goes. So a Key Colony Beach couple decided to sail their boat to the Bahamas and import their own domestic servants for their Keys and New York homes, according to federal court papers.Lawrence W. Blessinger and Janet Meadows, who have homes in Key Colony Beach and on Long Island in New York, face federal charges of conspiring to knowingly bring illegal aliens into the United States. According to a U.S. Department of Homeland Security arrest affidavit, Blessinger and Meadows brought three women from the Bahamas to the Key Colony Beach house between 2012 and 2015. All three women were citizens of Paraguay who flew to the Bahamas before being picked up and taken to Florida on Blessinger’s boats.Federal agents arrested Blessinger and Meadows on Nov. 25. They are out of custody after each paying 10 percent of a $250,000 bond.
