Apr 12, 2021 LASALLE, Colo. — A fundraiser has been set up to help the family of a 44-year-old employee at Shelton Dairy who drowned in a manure pit at Shelton Dairy.

Sources close to the family say Juan Panzo Temoxtle was operating the manure vacuum truck on March 30 when it appeared to lurch forward and fell into the manure pit, according to Project Protect Food Systems Workers (PPFS). The cab of the truck was submerged in the liquid manure with Temoxtle trapped inside. Workers on site were unable to pull the heavy vacuum truck out of the pit.

I know a guy who drowned in a vat of beer. He got out three times to take a leak.

Could you possibly keep a straight face at his wake? Pity the mortician!

PPFS says Temoxtle had been employed at Shelton Dairy for about six weeks

Juan came to the United States to have a better future for his kids, but, unfortunately, God had another plan for him.

Sorry Juan, I do not feel sorry for you.

Who pays for the flight back to Mexico?

The employer’s insurance company will probably be like-”weellll, he had diabetes so it wasn’t really our fault. Best of luck to the family though.”

I wonder if he spoke English and if not, did his lack of fluency have anything to do with his death due to not understanding or being able to read instructions or warnings.

I once watched a dairy farmer troubleshoot the barn cleaner system. He thought the shoot was plugged and walked out in the pit area to look up into the opening. Just then the guy reset the breaker in the barn...that was funny as heck!

A friend of mine emigrated from Mexico many years ago. Her father was a public sewer worker in some provincial town. He and a colleague died of asphyxiation while down in a sewer.

As a side note, his death sent her family into a bad tailspin because mom was not very stable and as a child, my friend basically wound up on the streets. She turned her life around because she married a great guy, found her Christian faith and made her way to the greatest country on Earth (her words) - so perhaps there’s a happy ending.

Anyway, what a terrible way to go.

I’m sorry the man died in a most horrific way. The ones responsible (Demolishcrats) will not be held to account for an illegal invader holding this job and being placed at risk. An uneducated third worlder with likely limited communication skills operating a manure pump truck in a dangerous environment is a recipe for just what happened. A tragedy for this man, his family, and a nation that allows this.

Likely he was rendered unconscious from asphyxiation and then drowned.

He should have been looking for the ‘shute’.
