“Jack in The Box. Home Depot. Big Lots. 7-Eleven. Albertsons. Home Depot.

Officer Augie Rocha bounces from one location to another like a pinball. He starts his mornings early – usually at 5:30 a.m. – to keep up with the day laborers who begin to congregate throughout the city.

The laborers gather in parking lots, in front of stores and on sidewalks to solicit work. As soon as Rocha rolls up in his police car, dozens of men dissipate. Some stare at Rocha but most avert their eyes and slowly walk away.”*
