    I need answers. This was filmed in NY, but the trailer has NJ plates. Something’s off. So many peculiar things going on here. The Black man riding in the horse trailer seems confused and distant. His finger nails. The driver giving the middle finger.pic.twitter.com/IY23NTae5e

        No, that’s not okay! People “working” on farms can get duped into horrible living conditions - on a mat on the floor, no safety or indoor plumbing. It’s still illegal.

        I've ridden in a trailer on short trips to help keep a horse calm, but I dont see a horse, and that guy looks off. Furthermore I'm not sure how legal it is to ride in a trailer

        Also, it looks like the driver in the truck is alone. If there are no horses, and plenty of room in the cab for a passenger, why is the man riding in the trailer?

        People posting it's normal for some horse trailers to have an attendant, doesn't explain the man looking malnourished, confused and unkept. Something is very wrong here.

        I think I read on the original post (from the person who filmed it) that they did report it to the police. Don’t have any updates on what happened next 😳

        I'm not sure what you're implying here? But if it's what I think, this is huge and it speaks to an underlying reoccuring fear many POC have. Are POC/young women being physically taken for some reason/purpose? Is something insidious happening WE must be aware of?

        Arguing a devil’s advocate position (because I don’t know what’s actually going on here), but would traffickers leave an open window where the man could be seen or even call for help? Why not something windowless, like a panel van?

        Depends on how much psychological control they have I've worked with trafficked girls that were forced to pretend to be the daughter of the trafficker - go to school etc & never tried to run away
