Supreme Court decision could grow farm labor trafficking in California

Salinas Californian In June of 2018, two Monterey County site inspectors visited a Salinas cannabis farm, where they encountered a small group of farmworkers who they suspected had been trafficked.  The farmworkers, who spoke no English, took off running when Monterey County Resource Management Agency officials approached them. They couldn t go far, though –– the cultivation site was fenced in. The farmworkers seemed terrified, the county s prosecuting attorney later said.  Their behavior was unusual enough that inspectors asked Monterey County Sheriff s deputies to investigate. It soon became clear the dozen or so Hmong farmworkers, employed by labor contractor Levi Trimmigration, were living in substandard housing: metal shipping containers furnished only with camping equipment. They had no running water, no ventilation, and slept on camping cots.
