Migrant Trailer Park

In an agricultural valley about 130 miles east of Los Angeles, a rundown mobile home park is the site of a showdown between federal authorities and an Indian tribe -- with thousands of Mexican migrant workers caught in the middle. Federal officials call the park unsanitary and unsafe, and a federal judge appointed a receiver to take over the property and clean it up. If the park is beyond repair the judge could shut it down, leaving thousands of people without a home. Reporter: Steven Cuevas
