Its price tag still on and bar code still intact. The homeless man who found it told me he was hungry and was going to sell the ring for 40. I decided to buy it to track down whoever lost it. We called nordstrom to ask about the ring, but before they could help, our story took a sudden turn. As we were working on broadway right where the ring was supposedly found, we caught the same man in the act holding an identical ring box telling another woman about a lost ring. You dont want to show us that . No. When he saw me, he made a quick getaway on the bike. The woman did not want to show her face on the camera. 2,000. Reporter but she told us a very familiar story. He bought it from me and he stole a white box. He picked it up and opened it, and it was a ring with a 2,000 tag. It seems like a scam, yeah.

Agents raided this hayward Construction Company last august, they were acting on a tip that undocumented workers were being confined in a warehouse as part of an elaborate forced labor scheme. Upstairs in a hidden loft, agents found a filthy crowded living space. Workers were housed here for at least a year with no running water. And because the loft locks from the outside, they believe workers were held against their will and hidden away for profit. It was allegedly operated by this man, the owner of the company joe torreshernandez, a man with a long history of chatting im cheating immigrant workers and threatened them if they complained. Workers understood that to mean their families could be harmed or killed. He recruited workers from mexico and took family Contact Information in case of emergencies, so he knew where they lived.
