This individual has worked at our farms for four years, was vetted through the government's E-Verify system, and was an employee in good standing. On Monday, the authorities visited our farm and talked to our employees. We have cooperated fully with their investigation. So, either the guy was legal, or someone screwed up. Screaming "immigrant! HURR DURR!" is either disingenuous or ignorant, probably willfully so. So two GameFAQs threads point out that this guy was an illegal immigrant, but it turns out that the guy was vetted by a government program and was cleared to work? I can't wait for this whole case to get worked out so we know all the facts, instead of facing a wall of "ILLEGAL MURDERER! HANG HIM BY THE FUCKING NECK!!". The plot thickens. https://www.cnn.com/2018/08/22/us/mollie-tibbetts-iowa-student-autopsy/index.html "Someone screwed up" happened, but you can't really blame the employer for what looks like legit paperwork. Yeah. Well, it's good to have any new information about this case anyway - still waiting for things to really come together, but either way Mollie Tibbetts' death is fucked up and I hope they nail the guy who did it. VectorChaos posted... Funbazooka posted... Calling them illegal immigrants is very offense. The correct terminology is "unregistered sightseer" IIRC some colleges in California really did ban the phrase illegal immigrant as "hate speech", during the election I think Any chance that it was banned because Trump supporters called anyone who looked vaguely Hispanic or middle-eastern "illegals" during the election? Because it seems plausible to me that Trump fans would have used it against anyone who looked vaguely off-white, including people whose families immigrated legally and who might have grown up in the States. You generalise a group of people, and that shit gets cracked down upon. Any decent person wouldn't characterise all Muslims as terrorists, so why generalise hispanic-looking people as all being illegal immigrants? --- But if I've come here to drown, I'm gonna take a few people down.
