said we remain shocked and free stricken over the senseless loss of four of our friends and longtime employees and we pray for the team member in critical condition. we are making grief counseling services available. now the second scene on real highway south, concord farms is where the suspect worked years ago according to the california terra garden spokesperson. he says the two companies do not technically share workers or land or equipment but some workers may be employed at both farms doing similar work. concord farms has a troubled past we found. in 2015 the previous owner was indicted for fraud over underreporting the value of imported gourmet mushrooms. he pled guilty to that and a woman who appears to be his wife owns concord farms. we have called the family of the man to ask about the prior leavell legal troubles but we have not heard back. with the investigative unit,
