Re: California crash

Here's more recent information about day workers, indicating early evidence that that's not what they were.

The UFW took to Twitter on Tuesday, citing a bus accident that killed 19 farmworkers in 1974 and another that killed 13 tomato pickers in Fresno County in 1999. Initially, Strater said, the organization thought those involved in Tuesday’s crash might have been farmworkers, but evidence from the scene persuaded them otherwise.

“We did think, based on geography, that there was a likelihood that it was farmworker transport,” Strater said. “Once we realized it wasn’t a bus or a van, that started to change.”

Strater also looked at the debris photos and noted something missing: lunch boxes.
