Attorney Alexis Ruiz explains the importance of staying at the scene of an accident, and how undocumented workers are protected by the law.

On January 28th a liquid nitrogen leak killed five people and left 11 injured at a poultry plant in Gainesville, GA. It is known that some of the 130 workers evacuated the factory before undergoing medical checks because they feared that being noticed by authorities might lead to their deportation. But this would not have been the case if they were educated about the laws that protect them.
