In the fields and margins of Italy's agricultural economy, four migrant workers met a violent end inside a burning minivan — a death that authorities are treating not as accident but as deliberate act. Two suspects have been arrested, and at least one survivor has given testimony that transforms this tragedy from misfortune into crime. The incident draws a harsh light on the systemic vulnerability of foreign laborers who toil within webs of dependency, isolation, and coercion that leave them exposed to the worst impulses of those who hold power over them.
