Who is Emilio Hernandez from Coyotes: A Journey Through the Secret World of America's Illegal Aliens and what is their importance?

Emilio Hernandez worked at Smith's orchard in El Mirage near Phoenix, and who was reportedly making plans for a trip to Florida. Ted persuaded Emilio to allow him to go along. Emilio and his friends set out in a car that cost very little, without a map or considering the weather, but believed they'd make it. Emilio knew little about driving in icy conditions, and he had a minor accident that could have been serious. Eventually, he turned the wheel over to Ted.
