BROOKLYN, Iowa (AP) - For years, the young man from Mexico presented himself as a legal U.S. resident and reliable worker at a family dairy farm in small town Iowa, his employer said.

“He was a hard working farmhand”
Hitler was an honorable and loyal soldier during The First World War. He then turned in to a homicidal death machine after the war.
Since the farm was probably full of illegals and descendants of illegals, I’m sure there was no English spoken. Where I lived in Mexifornia you had to speak Spanish to get a job unless it is a job requiring education or licensing.
The dairy next door to my farm has ten Guatemalan workers. The owner says they all have green cards. He is a republican.
But he has told me that he needs these workers to make the dairy profitable. As the owner, he does not live in a fancy house or have a flashy, opulent lifestyle. He lives in a double-wide manufactured home on site and drives about a 5-6 year old truck. He's not getting rich doing this.
Hiring locals as an alternative has become hardly viable because it with a price. First, there is not a pool of fine upstanding, hard-working citizens around here in rural country who willing to work in cow shit all day in the Florida heat and humidity for low pay. It is a miserable job. I know because I run a beef cattle operation next door on my place and the Florida heat and humidity is insufferable be in, let alone work in.
One local guy he hired seemed like a great guy and a reliable worker until he was arrested for child molestation six months ago. Oops! Another one got arrested in a drug bust and is in jail now. A third is hired and fired as he goes in and out of jail for 30 days at a time for DUI's. He keeps hiring him back because he can't find anyone else willing to do the dirty job.
The only local hire left is a guy my age, 70, who was a former big rig truck driver and mechanic. He does all of their equipment maintenance and repairs and tells me he can't work much longer because of his age and bad knees, but mainly because the money is just not enough to make it worth it. Everyone else but the owner and his adult son, are the ten Guatemalans.
The owner says it is almost impossible to hire locally. What he does get when he hires locally is problems. And doing so would almost certainly put him out of business because of the labor costs.
In the nine years I have lived next door to him, he's shown me to be a helpful neighbor, an honest, hard-working, church-going, civic-minded good guy like most of us are. I have no reason not to believe him.
I don't have the answer to the labor problem. But he has managed to find a way to make the dairy work. The previous two owners went bankrupt.
Has anyone checked his voting record(s)?!
What the hell does that mean?
Illegals: Doing the crimes Americans won’t do.
Oh, the democrats would have a field day. I can hear it now -— “5 American children being forced to leave their own country!/being ripped from their mother’s arms!”
Your right, perhaps it would better just to hang these corrupt “farmers” straight away.
Jeffrey Dahmer was a good cook anyway.
Why not hire Americans instead? F the “farmers” these human traffickers and neo slavers....
Free Traitors™ are burden to the party.
After reading his mini confession I thought of this. If his whole family was in danger of being deported if Mollie called the cops, then he might well have panicked. It sounds like he killed her just as she threatened to call the cops. If so, then his motive was not to sexually assault her. does not excuse him, just a thought about motive. His intent when stalking her may have been sexual, but his fear of being discovered and deported triggered panic. I don't know, somehow it seems to me a crazy kind of comfort that she might not have been sexually assaulted, but killed on the spot. If she were my daughter I would take that as something I could survive.
Wouldn’t that be an “alleged” hard working farmhand?
Has even one govt official done a study of how hard he worked? Worked on farm stuff, not killin...
Well, that settles it.
Case Dismissed!

Fake News!
The illegal employer is trying to save his own a$$.
Prosecute him too!

No “dreamer” is here legally, nor can they ever be here legally.
Here's an answer: Able-bodied people work or they starve, with a very loose definition of "able-bodied." No more subsidies that keep people on drugs and lazy all day and all night. Work or starve. There's an answer.
No! Fear farm hands, especially hard working farm hands. Wooooo!
