Oh, so it was a woman who lured the other women there.

But then, "she disappeared."

"The Q Bar X Ranch was at least the ninth farm the women had worked at — and the second where they said they were held prisoner by men with rifles, forbidden from leaving even to go to the grocery store or seek medical help. As with the other weed farms, they learned about the job from a woman they refer to as a contratista, who raved about the pay and assured them that the farm was licensed and produced federally legal hemp, not marijuana. Once the women showed up to the new farm, she disappeared."
