Las Vegas 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...

More from Gray Davis; the guy who killed prop. 187
By now you've heard the bad news: California is confronting a budget hole of historic proportions, one that will require billions of dollars in spending cuts, increases in fees and perhaps even higher taxes. -- Gov. Gray Davis and the Legislature will spend much of the year ahead searching for the least painful ways to pare state spending, as government revenues plunge. -- The grim bottom line: Over the next 18 months they must produce more than $21 billion in savings or tax increases or both...

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.

News Note 
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.

Letter To The Editor
Gainesville (GA) Times (Published)
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.
The Orange County Register
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.

News Note 
Courier Post (NJ)
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.

Corpus Christi Caller-Times
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.
