A lot of trucking firms are closing down, as they were working on small margins before the tariffs.

A search of online records for Seth Ator brings up a charge of Criminal Trespass from August 1, 2001, which was a Class B Misdemeanor. A second charge for evading arrest was filed the next day. The record shows that Ator issued a guilty plea in that case and received a sentence of 24 months on probation.
Heavy is looking into additional records with the Texas Department of Public Safety for more details.

There is a linkedin that suggests he was a truck driver--IF that is the same Seth Ator from Midland Texas, but who knows.
