Review-Journal
Lack
of extradition treaty frustrates Las Vegas family
The murder of a relative is always traumatic.
But that pain is compounded when the suspect flees to a country
that will not extradite him. -- "I thought about hiring
someone to go down there and take care of him," Las Vegan
Ron Cornell said of the man accused of killing his 16-year-old
son, Joey. "That crossed my mind several times." --
On July 16, 1998, Joey Cornell arrived with two of his friends
at his mother's home near Charleston and Lamb boulevards. --
As they left a car, a van pulled alongside the vehicle. Shots
were fired, and Cornell was killed instantly. His buddies survived.
-- Police within hours identified Gonzalo Villalobos as the suspect.
-- Police soon learned Villalobos had slipped across the Mexican
border... |
Seattle
Times
Immigration
status? 'Don't ask,' city says
The Seattle City Council is preparing
to approve an ordinance codifying the Police Department's long-standing
"don't ask" policy when it comes to enforcement of
immigration laws. --- That's essentially the city's policy now,
but some Seattle police officers question whether the ordinance
would place another set of handcuffs on their ability to fight
crime. -- Allowing officers, especially gang officers, to round
up gang members who are in the country illegally might send a
message that Seattle is not "soft" on illegal immigrants,
said Jim Dyment, a 32-year police veteran who was a gang detective
for seven of those years. |
Las Vegas Review-Journal
Special
Report: Running for the border
When he finished strangling his ex-wife
and mutilating her body, Fernando Hernandez put his little girl
in a car and fled south at speeds topping 100 mph. -- State troopers
stopped him near Laughlin, and he was arrested and later sentenced
to death. Upon interviewing his daughter, authorities learned
where Fernandez was headed in such a hurry. -- "Daddy was
taking her to Mexico," a detective said Ana Hernandez told
police. -- There is no mystery why Hernandez and other natives
of Mexico flee south after committing heinous crimes here. |
San
Diego Union-Tribune
Bill
would reward illegal aliens
...The Development, Relief and Education
for Alien Minor Act, known as the DREAM Act, would grant U.S.
residency to certain undocumented immigrants who graduate from
high school. Its supporters are optimistic the bill will become
law, because it has influential sponsors on both sides of the
aisle: Sens. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, and Richard Durbin, D-Ill.
-- The bill quietly cleared the Senate Judiciary Committee in
June but didn't come up for a full vote. A spokeswoman for Hatch
said he plans to re-introduce it when Congress reconvenes. |

Salt Lake
Tribune - Martin Torres - Mexican Consul
Another
meddling Mexican chimes in on invaders - The lies continue
...Like it or not, every day people cross
from south to north, drawn by opportunities to work for U.S.
employers who need more workers than they can find. And even
though the great majority of those who are crossing are law-abiding,
hard-working,
taxpaying people, much of that to and fro takes place through
an underground network that invites prejudice, injustice, abuse
and, yes, tragedy. --- [And get this...] A migration agreement
in fact shields against terrorism. [Torres joins with his
Sacramento
counterpart, this
pack of liars and this
Omaha nuisance.] |
Daily Press
Mexican
illegal 'can't wait' to be deported, newspaper snivels
Four months after she left Mexico with
a dream about the good life in the United States, Lluyvi Gomez
is to be deported soon. -- The woman can't wait. She's been praying
for deportation since September, when Newport News police officers
arrested her outside her apartment for carrying false identification.
-- Gomez is one of the estimated 4 million undocumented Mexican
immigrants who live in the US, 2000 U.S. Census figures indicate.
As the Hampton Roads area becomes more diverse, many more of
these immigrants
- often referred to as "illegal
aliens" - have moved here in search of jobs and a better
life [which, of course, is a federal crime]. |
The Times (New Jersey)
Gangs,
drugs are dual area concern
...Most of the gangs in New Jersey are
chapters or affiliates of larger, well-known gangs, like the
rival Bloods and Crips from Los Angeles, or the Latin Kings,
who formed in Chicago, and Neta, which started in Puerto Rico
and flourished stateside in New York. -- Also with New Jersey
concentrations are MS
13 and the 18th
Street Gang. -- The Mercer County Gang Task Force, which
Fredericks heads, has identified Bloods, Crips, Latin Kings and
Neta as the main gangs in Mercer County. |
Santa
Rosa Press-Democrat
Gang
presence shows big increase
...The Southern Cal.-based sureños
are nearly 100 percent Latino and include more new immigrants
from Mexico. They are affiliated with the Mexican Mafia prison
gang. -- The norteños, from Northern California, are predominantly
Latino and include more American-born members. They are affiliated
with the Nuestra Familia prison gang. -- Norteños consider
all of Sonoma County their turf, police said, along with the
South Park and West Steele Lane-North Coast Street areas of Santa
Rosa. [Related

Illegal
immigration is root cause of gang problems
Gangs are in the news again. Unfortunately,
this is old news in my neighborhood where we've witnessed murder,
burglary, drug sales, graffiti, dropping property values, and
a rapid decline in our sense of security. -- Law enforcement
authorities and local governments are working hard to combat
the problem. But why not address the fundamental cause, illegal
immigration? |
Naples
News
Gang
scourge: Sheriff's anti-gang unit goes to battle daily
...From neighborhoods off Radio Road
to the Naples Manor area and sections of Golden Gate, gangs such
as "Sur 13" (Spanish for South 13) have been striking
the community, targeting homes, ballparks and playgrounds. --
Joyce Short's residence in Naples Manor has been struck numerous
times throughout the years. In the past two weeks, gang members
from Sur 13 have left their mark on a large wall that surrounds
Short's home. -- "People are afraid of these punks,"
she said. "They write lots of vulgar language. It costs
me a lot of money to get the wall redone because I don't use
paint for the wall . . . it's cement and it's expensive." |
The Arizona Republic
Few
clues found in alien murder case
...The killings could stem from a turf battle
between organizations of drug traffickers or coyotes, who smuggle
human cargo into the United States from Mexico, Maricopa Co.
Sheriff Joe Arpaio said. -- Moreover, gun-toting citizen patrol
groups now prowl the border, vowing to capture illegal immigrants
they encounter. -- But Arpaio said the vigilantes are probably
not involved in the murders because they operate on the border,
which is nearly 200 miles from where the bodies were found. |

Fox
cronies continue meddling
Guadalupe Hernandez is one of five Orange
Co.'s residents recently elected to advise Mexican President
Vicente
Fox's newly created Institute for Mexicans Abroad. On Saturday,
the California delegates gathered at the University of Southern
California to get to know each other and begin carving out their
work. Twenty of the 34 California advisers attended. They pledged
to set aside their differences to help shape a national agenda
to improve their communities on both sides of the border. |

Crackdown
on fraud at DMV is under way
Until four months ago, Robert Riccardella
had spent 20 years as a Boar's Head meat distributor. John Vinci
held a number of customer service jobs at Conrail. -- Now they're
on the front lines in New Jersey's battle against identity fraud
and, to a certain extent terrorism, as agents running the state
Division of Motor Vehicles offices in Lodi and West Deptford,
respectively. -- Efforts to keep fake driver's licenses from
people who pay thousands for them have been waged for years but
took on added importance after Sept. 11. |

Mobile
Mexican invasion station serves 400 on public property
...The San Antonio Mexican Consulate's
office had expected to serve about 120 people during a mobile
consulate session at Del Mar College's Buddy Venters Building,
said Marco Fraire, a spokesman for the Mexican Consulate's San
Antonio office. -- Instead, consulate staff served more than
400 people in search of the same kind of paperwork David Castillo
obtained, as well as passports, visas and answers to immigration-related
legal questions. Consulate staff said they had to turn away about
200 people they could not begin to process during their six-hour
intake period. -- The Matricula
Consular is a driver's license-sized card with high-tech
embedded security features that were added after Sept. 11. |
