Something's been bothering me since Day 2 post-accident and it came rushing back in the first couple minutes of that briefing you linked.

See below:

Who were the bridge collapse victims? The six men were working for Brawner Builders, filling potholes on the center span of the bridge, at the time of the collapse.

The men, who are now presumed dead, are from El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Mexico, and were living in Dundalk and Highlandtown, according to WJZ media partner The Baltimore Banner.

One of the missing workers from El Salvador was identified as Miguel Luna by the nonprofit organization CASA.

"He is a husband, a father of three, and has called Maryland his home for over 19 years," CASA executive director Gustavo Torres said in a statement Tuesday night, noting Luna was a "longtime member of the CASA family."

The Guatemalan Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed two of the men were from Guatemala, according to a Tuesday evening news release. The men are in their 30s and 40s and have spouses and children.

Maryland State Police identified two men found in a red pickup truck as Dorlian Cabrera and Alejandro Hernandez Fuentes.

CBS News spoke with a family member who said Cabrera was among the group of workers presumed dead

Honduras' Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister Antonio García told The Associated Press a Honduran citizen, Maynor Yassir Suazo Sandoval, was missing. García said he'd been in contact with Suazo's family.

The Mexican Embassy in Washington said there were also Mexicans among the six.

"They are all hard-working, humble men," the Banner was told by an employee at the company.

I noticed the heritage/names immediately.

Not one "Smith", "Jones", "O'Hara" or "Washington" among the lot.

Catholic Charities is a terrorist organization.
