6. This is such an odd raid.
I had heard before Christmas that Henry's was closing. The planned closing was around the end of February. There are only a few of the men still there. Most have returned to Texas to retire. Or at least that is what I heard. I don't know much about their internal workings. All I know is that these guys have been working at the turkey plant for a long time. I have no doubt that there probably have been abuses most likely all along. Yet why would whatever authority launched this raid wait until just prior to their planned closing to pull this raid? Seems like some real grandstanding for cheap political points to me.
