    From the Sacramento Bee comes the sad story of Maria Isabel Vasquez Jimenez age 17, of Oaxaca, Mexico who dies of heat stroke while working in a vineyard on May 16th, 2008.

    The United Farm Workers Union is calling her death "an "egregious" violation of safety regulations" and is calling for the punishment of the person or people responsible for her death.

    But that begs the question, how do you punish a dead girl?

    Certainly it is Maria's own fault, unless she was kidnapped and forced to work in that field. She illegally entered our country with the sole intention of working illegally to send money back to her widowed mother in Mexico. Now while I am all for compassion for your workers and treating them decently, at the heart of thishttp://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=9098861
    Blogger: Kenders' Musings - Create Post is the fact that she was an illegal alien who should not have been here working in the first place. If you want to put anyone on trial for her death why not place the blame where it rightfully lies? With the governments of The United States for not securing our border and the government of Mexico, for encouraging their citizens to enter our country illegally and send home money and just having a corrupt country that can't seem to dig itself out of poverty, thereby forcing its citizens to look for work elsewhere?

    It is sad that Maria died, seemingly a needless death, but at the end of the day the only thing her employer did wrong was hiring illegals. The blame should also be with the company that sent the illegals to work in the first place Merced Farm Labor contracting service out of Atwater, for aiding and abetting illegal aliens being employed in the first place.

    Please people, let's place the blame where it rightfully lies, with the illegals that shouldn't be here in the first place.
