It's hard to comprehend....

after considerable surveillance, so they said, they identified illegal employment practices. They storm in and arrest workers and shackle them. Obviously they are considered a "worse of the worse" and "dangerous threat"

Next up are tidbits about how there was trafficking. Along with the "let this be a warning....we are going after employers which break the law. Apparently going after employers means arresting and shackling the workers and not the bosses.

THEN the trip out of the country is delayed to see if any of these skilled workers want to stay and train US workers (presumably now they are no longer a threat and the restraints are taken off.

It sounds to me like a phone call to the proper decision makers could have yielded identifying the VISA issues and seeking a solutions. Instead they rip apart 400 workers lives (in a cruel and humiliating way) .

Disgusting!
