Is it even legal to not hire family referrals?

I have an aunt that works in a factory that's always hiring. I need the money so she told me about this place. I went right over and talked to the hiring manager and told him even though it was an entry level position I had lots of experience already. The interview was flawless and I was certain I'd be hired. Then at the end I said I was excited to be working there and thanks to Kelsey (my aunt) for letting me know about the job. Then the hiring manager immediately frowned and said “oh I didn't know you had family working here” he proceeded to tell me that they don't hire family because they had experienced when maybe two brothers worked there and one got fired for whatever reason, then the other quit. Idk if this is discrimination or what. I'm just wondering. Sorry if this isn't exactly…
