Virginia López Severiano, 44, died after she was pulled into a part of an industrial mixing machine at about at the Azteca Market in Selma on Tuesday morning. The machine was powered on at the time.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (USBLS), there were 4,764 fatal work injuries in the United States in 2020, representing a 10 percent decrease from 5,333 in 2019.

Selma Fire Chief Phillip McDaniel told Raleigh news station WRAL that Severiano was seriously injured when she was found. Emergency crews managed to free her from the machine after about an hour and a half of "tedious rescue," he said.

Severiano was then flown to Duke University Hospital by helicopter to undergo surgery to try to save her arm, but ultimately died of her injuries on Tuesday evening, a family friend told WRAL.

Images posted on the Selma Police Department (SPD) and fire department Facebook pages showed a helicopter in the parking lot outside the store. A Tuesday SPD Facebook post read: "We would like to thank all of the first responders for all of their hard work and dedication to getting the person free.

"The departments showed what it means to care for your community and fellow communities, they came together as one and after a very long and exhausting extraction, we're (sic) able to free the worker and they were transported by helicopter to Duke University Hospital."

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is investigating the death.

Newsweek has contacted the Selma Police Department for comment.

According to the USBLS, a worker died every 111 minutes from a work-related injury in 2020. The share of Hispanic or Latino workers fatally injured on the job continued to grow that year, increasing to 22.5 percent from 20.4 percent in 2019.

Newsweek has reported on numerous cases where employees have died at their place of work.

Last month, an employee died in an accident that involved a warehouse vehicle at a Walmart distribution facility in Raymond, New Hampshire.

The victim was identified as James Tomilson, 54, and police said he had been walking when he was hit by a tractor-trailer at the distribution center. Authorities said another truck behind him "lunged forward" while Tomilson was inspecting a trailer, pinning him between the two vehicles.

First responders from Raymond Ambulance and the Raymond Fire Department tried to save Tomlinson's life, but he died shortly afterward.

An attorney for Nxivm sex-slave cult leader Keith Raniere argued for his conviction to be overturned Tuesday — claiming in a court filing that the FBI planted child pornography on his computer hard drive.

The motion to vacate the sentence was filed by attorney Joseph Tully on the same day he presented the convicted sex-trafficker’s appeal on different grounds to a federal court panel in Manhattan.

In the filing, Tully claimed nearly two dozen nude photos of a 15-year-old girl that were found on a hard drive kept by Raniere were actually put on the device by FBI agents.

The metadata of the photos, Tully claimed, were manually altered to make the images appear like they had been produced in 2005, when the subject of the photos was 15.

“The backup folder … where the contraband photographs were placed has all the hallmarks of fraud,” the attorney wrote in the court document.

“The government used this 2005 date to establish some of the photos as contraband. Further, the photographs’ metadata within these subfolders were also manually altered to comport with the government’s 2005 narrative,” he went on.

Prosecutors and the judge who oversaw Raniere’s case in Brooklyn federal court have not responded to the claims. A spokesperson for the Eastern District of New York prosecutor’s office declined to comment.

Tully made similar accusations last week in an attempt to delay Tuesday’s appeal hearing before a three-judge panel. The US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit rejected the request to postpone the hearing.

During the hearing, Tully pushed for Raniere’s conviction to be vacated, arguing in part that the cult leader’s right to due process was violated because his trial attorney was allegedly cut off from cross-examining a key government witness.

“I don’t think here the record established the defense had a full and fair opportunity to cross-examine the witness,” he told the panel.

In response, Assistant US Attorney Tanya Hajjar told the panel that the judge instructed Raniere’s attorney to stop questioning the witness, former Nxivm “slave master” Lauren Salzman, because he was not following directions and causing her to break down on the stand.

At the hearing Tuesday, an attorney for Raniere’s co-conspirator, Seagram’s liquor heiress Clare Bronfman, also argued for her sentence to be vacated by the appellate court.

The attorney, Ronald Sullivan, claimed the stiff six-year sentence Bronfman got was an unfair upward departure, in part because the judge unfairly determined she employed “willful blindness” to steer clear of the sex cult Raniere was leading.

The judges hearing the cases will rule on them at a later date.

Raniere is serving a 120-year prison sentence after he was convicted on a host of charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering, for running a sex cult known as “DOS” that pulled members from his various self-help groups, including Nxivm.
