WATT Responsiveness? WATT happened? Was it a Hug or an assault?

2009-10-19T05:01:00.001-07:00

Think I don't remember? I await your approach. Bring it! Lets open the subjects that you used to get elected but did nothing you vowed. Angelica, you threw my wife away and when you could have helped you count even keep your word and call me back as promised. Angelica you're a ladder climber and used us to do it. So I got the counter to your ascension and as for Homero, I love you like my family and it is hard to accept that you operate as my enemy. Research and accruing the firepower that is where we have been. Where are you, my dear "friends?"

Good luck to both and should you prevail, we will expect full responsiveness to us the constituency of HD #33. When we call, we want to speak with our Representative or at least return the call. You know? Like it is right now.

Local "Loophole Candidates" and Local "Loophole "Yanqui" Power Broker held Chair Massage Seminars this week.

Local "Loophole Candidates" Solomon Ortiz Jr. and Danny Noyola Sr. have been courting the HD #33 Precinct Chairs in an attempt to solidify a majority vote of 44 precinct chairs who will be voting on ????????. Local "Loophole Yanqui Extraordinaire" / Power Broker Mikal Watts, recently held his own Chair Massage (Whataburger Field) as well.

Capelo Still In The Craw Of the Trial Lawyers

Texas State House District #33 Precinct Chairs are currently very popular since the July 4^th Fireworks of the resignation of Incumbent HD #33 Representative Vilma Luna. In all appearances of spontaneity and quality family time explanations it really turned out to be an accurately tossed piece of tough meat into a pack of ravenous who currently rank lower on the food chain. This was not a woman changing her mind but a coach pulling one of his players after exhausting herself completely on the field of play. I commend her and I wish her the best. Thank you for everything Vilma. You did your JOB and IMO you walked the line with a trueness and loyalty. One must realize Mr. Watts does not like to lose and with respect to the Capelo legislation he is still fighting. This is the one thing that has made Mikal's goal to be the next Hayden Head. Patron WATTS is not a justiciable title but then again he has a long way to go towards the Hayden Head Award. So WATT is it about him that screws the little people? Well, here is one example where our Primary Vote is USURPED. Another scenario to conceptualize, would be the Judicial arrogance resulting in a denial of justice for the rest of us; as attorneys who did not get their way in another case and the knowledge of the technical maneuvers rendered due to the innate feeling of invincibility our Judges develop due to the effectual relief they provide for Mikal as a "Corporate Predator". Well that's enough of that.

Local Politicos Rock & Roll on the Corpus Christi Bay

Solly held his event on the Captain Clark Flagship. Chili was served, Tejano music, an extended cruise around the Corpus Christi Bay and of course free beer. There was a very festive attitude and quite a turnout. I spoke with Solly for the first time. He was a very good host. We didn't talk that much about the nomination except that he is truly interested and he still believes he can get the votes. It was kind of rough water and a couple of big tough men developed a mild case of seasickness. That stuff will make one kiss mother earth upon return. Who was there? Many I knew but many more I did not know the faces but knew their names. It is kind of nice to put a name with a face. I seen a few Precinct Chairs mainly Susie Luna, Nancy Vera, Rowland Andrade and other Politicos such as René Rodriguez, Rene Saenz and his wife Stephanie, John Kelly, Joe Benavides, Oscar Ortiz (Nueces County Commissioner) and many children running around having a wonderful time.

"that chair is already taken"

by Dannoynted1

We almost decided against going to the LULAC Barbeque for Danny Noyola senior today but I am glad we did the food was delicious!

Especially the pinto beans, I have to get that recipe.

For those of you who missed it, you missed out on a tasty meal, but there was no place to sit as I looked around there was a half a table empty so I went over there to see if I could sit down and the women said yes.

Well, I ate alone while Jaime talked with Danny and his wife Alma. There were pictures along the wall of previous/current LULAC presidents and/or members but I definitely recognized DR. Hector P. Garcia as one of them.

After I scooted over the beer cans to put my plate down, several men arrived and they just stared at me. When my husband whistled and I showed him where I was. He came and sat next to me when the man on my left then told US rudely "that chair is already taken".

Well, rather than start crap, we got up and left the table. We went and hung out in the front entry by the kitchen where Jesse Olivarez (no relation to Larry) was cutting the brisket. I went to get my husband and his brother a plate of food. His girlfriend was working at the hospital and wanted a plate but Danny's sister and another woman refused to give me another plate. I told my husband and his brother when Mr. Jesse Olivarez (who was right there cutting brisket) told one of the little girls who were helping him to bring a plate.

Thank you Jesse!

I saw a few of the regulars on the political front Joe Benavides, Brian Miller, Coretta Graham, and Nancy Vera and as we were leaving, we shook hands with DMC Board of Regents Member Gabriel Rivas.

Got some documentation highlighting some precinct chairs statements of their commitment to Danny Noyola. I counted 11 plus Alma Noyola for a total of 12.

Danny Jr. spoke he said, "they already have more than the 22 they need; but they were not all accounted for on the blue handout.

Some serious Partying goin down at the LULAC #1

Danny Noyola held his event at the LULAC #1. Barbeque was served with rice beans and potato salad and of course free beer. It was delicious. The beans were delectable. Danny and his wife Alma treated us with all of the dignity and respect of royalty. During Danny's speech is when I decided to get a plate and sit down (while all eyes were glued on Danny). At least that is what I thought till I sat down in a vacant row of chairs next to my wife. Some older man, well let's just say he didn't like me sitting next to my wife. Out of respect for Danny & Alma and the privilege; I made myself defer. The only thing I did not do, that I wished I had done; was get that guys name. I chalk it up to old school Molina. It is not a big deal and in no way does it affect my respect for Danny or Alma. I believe both Democrats (Danny Noyola & Solomon Ortiz Jr.) are very capable and electable as HD #33 is a Democratic District. The Noyola Event was definitely a serious event and to most of them I am an outsider. I am troubled by the loophole method that the November Candidate will be chosen. After meeting them both I will vote for one of them in November. Good luck to both and should you prevail, we will expect full responsiveness to us the constituency of HD #33. When we call, we want to speak with our Representative or at least return the call. You know? Like it is right now.

Chair Massage cost Mikal much more than "TWO FER A NICKEL"

And Mikal's bash?

Well, we wouldn't know; since it was such an elite Chair Massage.

Only the best Massages for our HD #33 Precinct Chairs.

Right Mikal?

Ambulance firms raided in Medicaid fraud inquiry

Companies in Dallas, 11 other cities searched in billing investigation

12:00 AM CST on Thursday, December 7, 2006

By TANYA EISERER / The Dallas Morning News

Fraud investigators served 19 search warrants in Dallas and 11 other cities in a wide-ranging inquiry into allegations of fraudulent billing practices by ambulance companies, the Texas attorney general said Wednesday.

"This is a statewide fleecing of millions of dollars from Texas taxpayers of the Medicaid system," said Attorney General Greg Abbott. "There were billings that were either for more than the amount of services provided, or even billings for services that were not provided. [The] bottom line is we have a statewide operation cracking down on Medicaid fraud."

The investigation centers on ambulance companies suspected of submitting false claims to Medicare, Medicaid, private insurers and the Federal Employees Health Benefits Plan, said Jerry Strickland, a spokesman for the attorney general's office.

The inquiry, Operation Easy Rider, began at least six months ago after the Texas Health and Human Services Commission reported discrepancies in billing practices, Mr. Strickland said. The agency oversees the disbursement of Medicaid funds.

"The fraud that we're dealing with really doesn't have anything to do with any kind of complexities that may exist in the system," Mr. Abbott said. "We're dealing with people who are just out and out cheating and lying to the state of Texas, stealing money from the taxpayers of the state of Texas.

"They thought, gosh, that [they] could take money by overcharging the state of Texas, overcharging the Medicaid system, maybe no one would see."

Officials declined to release further details, citing the continuing investigation.

The attorney general's Medicaid Fraud Control Unit was involved in the operation, along with federal agents from the inspector general's office at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the FBI, the inspector general's office for the U.S. Office of Personnel Management, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

North Texas ambulance companies that were searched included Carefirst EMS on Centre Street and Judd Court in Dallas; Greater Dallas EMS on South Hall Street in Dallas; All State Ambulance Service in Rowlett; Advicare Ambulance Transfer Service in DeSoto; and Visions EMS in Cedar Hill.

Officials with the ambulance companies either declined to comment or could not be reached for comment.

Mr. Strickland also confirmed that law officers arrested the owners of an ambulance service in McAllen, Texas, as part of the raids.

Chris Heinbaugh of WFAA-TV (Channel 8) contributed to this report.

This Prosecutor is Malicious and Does not seek Justice

Homer, with all due respect this, article does not make sense. You keep saying that idiot hubert talks about the jury finding it difficult to convict yet he elected the Judge to assess punishment?
Why would he do that? it seems that hubert gets off on taking idiotic cases to trial when he really should take himself for fabricating evidence and charging this man falsely. How could he burglarize when it is clear from the article the authorities were there because of the interfering with an emergency call.
I don't know.
I do know Hubert is a liar, Malicious Prosecutor and does not seek justice as the JOB he holds is required. What a waste, but he did help his friend Chaney out though.

Re: Parkdale Plaza Demolition / Walmart Center Site

2009-03-26T11:32:00.001-07:00

Mike,

Here is the problem I am seeing, MONEY. Is it true Walmart is budgeting 10 million dollars for the project and if so I do not see it happening with abatement included. I could be off on my ball park estimates but I do know Asbestos abatement is very expensive and 10 mill sounds like just for the plain and dry demolition, site prep and construction. However, I do agree with you "that any demolition company knows the protocol for asbestos abatement" that is,..... any demolition company our city issues a permit to.

Have they started demolition?

Are you asking or perhaps just being a bit snippy with me? I dont think they have started demolition as of yet but since you are confident; it wont bother you to be there when the demolition begins? My family and friends and all of Solly Jr.'s district reside in harms way should incompetence arise. I urge you to apprise yourself of the situation (and I could be wrong there may not be a drop of asbestos in the place) before expressing blind confidence in a project that might endanger the community.

Why not walk the walk and express your confidence in insuring this project?

I have only responded to your disdain or appearance thereof.

Sincerely,

Anton

Bush commutes sentences of former US border agents

One of outgoing President's last acts, Bush frees men convicted of shooting Mexican drug dealer

Associated Press
Monday, January 19, 2009

WASHINGTON — In his final acts of clemency, President George W. Bush on Monday commuted the prison sentences of two former U.S. Border Patrol agents whose convictions for shooting a Mexican drug dealer ignited fierce debate about illegal immigration.
Bush's decision to commute the sentences of Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean, who tried to cover up the shooting, was welcomed by both Republican and Democratic members of Congress. They had long argued that the agents were merely doing their jobs, defending the American border against criminals. They also maintained that the more than 10-year prison sentences the pair was given were too harsh.
Rancor over their convictions, sentencing and firings has simmered ever since the shooting occurred in 2005. The former border guards in El Paso, Texas, are expected to be released from prison within the next two months.
"After four years of fighting this, it's taken a toll on me and my daughter, and really the whole family," said Joe Loya, Ramos' father-in law, who has received tens of thousands of supportive e-mails and spent much of the past two years traveling the country to speak about the case.
He said his daughter, Monica Ramos, called from New York after learning the news that her husband was to be released from a federal prison just outside Phoenix.
"She could hardly speak," Loya said.
Ramos and Compean became a rallying point among conservatives and on talk shows where their supporters called them heroes. Nearly the entire bipartisan congressional delegation from Texas and other lawmakers from both sides of the political aisle pleaded with Bush to grant them clemency.
Bush didn't pardon the men for their crimes, but decided instead to commute their sentences because he believed they were excessive and that they had already suffered the loss of their jobs, freedom and reputations, a senior administration official said.
The action by the president, who believes the border agents received fair trials and that the verdicts were just, does not diminish the seriousness of their crimes, the official said.
Compean and Ramos, were convicted of shooting admitted drug smuggler Osvaldo Aldrete Davila in the buttocks as he fled across the Rio Grande, away from an abandoned van load of marijuana. The border agents argued during their trials that they believed the smuggler was armed and that they shot him in self defense. The prosecutor in the case said there was no evidence linking the smuggler to the van of marijuana. The prosecutor also said the border agents didn't report the shooting and tampered with evidence by picking up several spent shell casings.
The agents were fired after their convictions on several charges, including assault with a dangerous weapon and with serious bodily injury, violation of civil rights and obstruction of justice. All their convictions, except obstruction of justice, were upheld on appeal.
Compean and Ramo were sentenced to 12 years and 11 years in prison, respectively. They each also were fined $2,000 and sentenced to three years of supervised release. Under the terms of Bush's commutation, their prison sentences will expire on March 20, but their three-year terms of supervised release and the fines will remain intact.
With the new acts of clemency, Bush has granted a total of 189 pardons and 11 commutations.
That's fewer than half as many as Presidents Bill Clinton or Ronald Reagan issued during their two-term tenures. Bush technically has until noon on Tuesday when President-elect Barack Obama is sworn into office to exercise his executive pardon authority, but presidential advisers said no more were forthcoming.
The president had made most of his pardon decisions on low-profile cases, but his batch in December created controversy.
Isaac Robert Toussie of Brooklyn, N.Y, convicted of making false statements to the Department of Housing and Urban Development and of mail fraud, was among 19 people Bush pardoned just before Christmas. But after learning in news reports that Toussie's father had donated tens of thousands of dollars to the Republican Party a few months ago, as well as other information, the president reversed his decision on Toussie's case.
The White House said the decision to revoke the pardon a step unheard of in recent memory was based on information about the extent and nature of Toussie's prior criminal offenses, and that neither the White House counsel's office nor the president had been aware of a political contribution by Toussie's father and wanted to avoid creating an appearance of impropriety.
In an earlier high-profile official act of forgiveness, Bush saved Vice President Dick Cheney's former chief of staff, I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, from serving prison time in the case of the 2003 leak of CIA operative Valerie Plame's identity. Libby was convicted of perjury and obstructing justice. Bush could still grant him a full pardon, although Libby has not applied for one.
Clinton issued a total of 457 in eight years in office. Bush's father, George H. W. Bush, issued 77 in four years. Reagan issued 406 in eight years, and President Carter issued 563 in four years. Since World War II, the largest number of pardons and commutations 2,031 came from President Truman, who served 82 days short of eight years.

Dear Lou Dobbs,

After recently contacting you and informing you of LULAC and the American GI
Forum's initiative to free the two border patrol agents I received this
email from the National LULAC. We believe it is out of an attempt to gain
notoriety by rerouting the press through the National Organization or it is
an attempt to quash. Please read the email below.

Subject: Border Patrol Issue

==============================

Dear Board Members,

Today our National Board met via a conference call regarding the resolution
which was passed at our State Board meeting this past weekend. The
resolution referenced our position regarding two Border Patrol Officers. As
you recall, we do not endorse thier actions but mainly question the
serverity of the punishment and asked for a pardon.

After much discussion it was voted by the National Board to enforce a "gag
order" on all members of the organization, not only our Texas LULAC members,
regarding speaking to the media on this issue. If a member of the media
calls you please refer them to the National Office.

Please do not feel that our efforts were in vain because part of the end
result is now that the National Office is going to move on looking into this
type of sentencing with our Legislators in Washington. The smallest victory
in the midst of a defeat, no matter how small, is still a victory. Hold you
heads up high as proud Texas LULAC members and know that we did the right
thing.

Please make sure that all of the councils in your district abide by our
National Board's decision and let us now move on to other issues that effect
Texas.

Thank you again for all of your continued support.

Roger C. Rocha, Jr.

State Director - Texas LULAC

===================================

The LULAC Founding Chapter remains dedicated to this cause regardless of gag
orders censorship or threats. The American GI Forum remains unwavering.

Dear Lou Dobbs,

Why are these guys against us Lou?

Do they want the credit or do they want

Jaime Kenedeno

to BWilkes, RosaRosales, Rocha roger,

First of all this "unarmed suspect" was in a physical altercation with the
Agents. The chain of custody with the ballistics is compromised. Aldrete is
a known drug trafficker and there is the testimony of who; saying he was
unarmed? If you think this guy is unarmed, surely he is trustworthy enough
to work for you? Why not hire him while he is still innocent Brent? A Golden
Elite Pass who gets that kind of latitude and for Aldrete he abandoned
another vehicle full of dope while enjoying the above the law benefits of
passing through check points unchecked. Aldrete is not an American nor is he
a Mexican National coming to America in search of work, he does not possess
the rights of a US Citizen nor does he respect the rights of other American
Citizens nor does he respect our laws. Maybe if the shooter on the Mountain
would have aimed for the head the DHS wouldn't be in cover up mode and
pawning lower ranking law enforcement to save their own a$$. Wasn't he shot
in the ass, as he was running for the refuge of the Rio Bravo; because he
just got caught with a load of dope as the DHS agent watched with
binoculars. I wonder what his interest was in Aldrete? Do some homework
Brent. And nobody believes in shooting unarmed suspects in the back but we
do believe this sends a wrong message to our law enforcement on the front
line and we do believe it is not the message we want to send to our youth
aspiring to become law enforcement officers. We support our law enforcement
in situations as this one involving a known drug trafficker and we support a
full investigation into the cover up by the DHS. Tell me the DHS Agent's
name and how he is tied to Aldrete the drug trafficker?

===============================

Dear Brent and Distinguished Readers,

Prior to the Press Release we researched these events and even had the DOJ
Representative on Talk Radio. The prosecutions story is based on the DHS
field investigation conducted predominantly by a single agent who has
signifigant ties to the drug dealer Aldrete. Aldrete was in our country,
disrespecting our laws and our citizens. I believe the readers can decide
for themselves. When a report is issued to congress redacting the DHS Agents
name to me is an obvious red flag. Also these two border patrol agents are
not the only law enforcement agents that Sutton has prosecuted. This other
prosecution is mentioned in detail in a previous email. In my eyes it is
better ten guilty go free than 1 innocent human being be convicted. Aldrete
is a drug trafficker and we believe he was armed and the prosecution has
withheld exculpatory evidence as well as a botched field investigation /
cover-up by DHS agents connected to the drug trafficker Aldrete. Please
inform me if the you do not receive the attachments.

Please email to Kenedeno the two statements issued by Sutton. You may be
surprised he may have never read them and has been reacting to media reports
only. But do challenge him to post the statements to ALL his readers (not
be selective) since he is so eager to post our internal communications. This

a known drug trafficker and there is the testimony of who; saying he was
unarmed? If you think this guy is unarmed, surely he is trustworthy enough
to work for you? Why not hire him while he is still innocent Brent? A Golden
Elite Pass who gets that kind of latitude and for Aldrete he abandoned
another vehicle full of dope while enjoying the above the law benefits of
passing through check points unchecked. Aldrete is not an American nor is he
a Mexican National coming to America in search of work, he does not possess
the rights of a US Citizen nor does he respect the rights of other American
Citizens nor does he respect our laws. Maybe if the shooter on the Mountain
would have aimed for the head the DHS wouldn't be in cover up mode and
pawning lower ranking law enforcement to save their own a$$. Wasn't he shot
in the ass, as he was running for the refuge of the Rio Bravo; because he
just got caught with a load of dope as the DHS agent watched with
binoculars. I wonder what his interest was in Aldrete? Do some homework
Brent. And nobody believes in shooting unarmed suspects in the back but we
do believe this sends a wrong message to our law enforcement on the front
line and we do believe it is not the message we want to send to our youth
aspiring to become law enforcement officers. We support our law enforcement
in situations as this one involving a known drug trafficker and we support a
full investigation into the cover up by the DHS. Tell me the DHS Agent's
name and how he is tied to Aldrete the drug trafficker?

===============================
Thank You, and now let us finish the JOB we started.

The Little Red Hen

In the tale, the little red hen finds a grain of wheat, and asks for help
from the other farmyard animals to plant it. No one is willing to help. W
hen the wheat matures, she asks for help to harvest it, then thresh
it, thenmill it, and bake the flour into bread. At each stage she gets
no
volunteers. Finally she asks who will help her eat the bread. All the
previous non-participants eagerly volunteer, but she declines their help and
eats it with her chicks, leaving none for others.

Maybe over the years this has been the norm?

Now, there is great effort and work being put forth and we are engaging,
putting ourselves on the front line. Come, join us with your ideas; but have
an open mind for our ideas as well, We do not always agree, but that does
not make us enemies. Let us all try to express ourselves more positively
than negatively; if at all possible.

Hello Everyone,

Just wanted to share this with everyone. The resolution we passed regarding
the two Border Patrol Officers made Lou Dobbs and now it appears CNN wants
to speak with us. Pretty cool. Kudos go out toe Elvia and Xavier on this.

Please read below.

Per the call from CNN yesterday, information below from CNN Lou Dobbs Show
mentioning LULAC Texas resolution. Reporter still wanting information as to
why LULAC Texas has decided to take this position.

"Still ahead here, charges tonight that prosecutors withheld key evidence in
the trial of two former Border Patrol agents sent to prison.

We'll have that special report.

And Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff, well, he's praising
efforts to build a fence along our southern border with Mexico. Our border,
however, is wide open to illegal aliens, to terrorists, to drug smugglers.

We'll have that story.

And the war on our middle class, it's escalating. New government figures
tonight illustrate the worsening plight of working men and women in this
country.

That special report and a great deal more all coming up here next.

Stay with us.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

DOBBS: Important new developments tonight in the case of imprisoned former
Border Patrol agents Compean and Ramos. Both sentenced to lengthy prison
terms for shooting and wounding an illegal alien drug smuggler whom the
prosecutors then gave immunity to testify against the agents. One of the
defense attorneys now says government prosecutors failed to disclose a key
document during that trial. A document that could have undermined the
government's entire case.

Casey Wian has the story.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

CASEY WIAN, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice over): At the heart of the
prosecution's case against former Border Patrol agents Ignacio Ramos and
Jose Compean was the alleged cover-up of the shooting of a Mexican illegal
alien drug smuggler. Now the online publication WorldNetDaily reports the
existence of a Homeland Security Department document suggesting two Border
Patrol supervisors were at scene and knew about the shooting.

That's consistent with the agents' statements that they did not report the
shooting because they believed supervisors already knew about it. The
attorney for Ignacio Ramos says prosecutors never disclosed the existence of
the documents, which could be grounds for a new trial.

MARY STILLINGER, ATTORNEY FOR IGNACIO RAMOS: The government is really
charged with a higher responsibility than just winning a case. The
government is charged with seeking justice in trying to do the right thing.

So they can't hold back on evidence just because it's helpful to the
defense. And, if fact, they have an obligation to turn that over.

WIAN: The document lists the names of Border Patrol agents and supervisors
who were at the scene. It also says, "Investigation disclosed that none of
the above agents reported the shooting or the subsequent cover-up."

REP. TED POE (R), TEXAS: The more that comes out about this case, the more
it seems that the prosecution was relentless in making sure these border
agents were convicted. And this is just another example of another piece of
evidence that the defense should have known about, the jury should have
known about during the trial to make their determination on whether these
border agents even violated the law or not.

WIAN: U.S. attorney Johnny Sutton did not return calls seeking comment on
the new evidence and other documents raising questions about his decision to
prosecute the agents and grant immunity to an admitted drug smuggler.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I think our police officers, our law enforcement have
been undermined. WIAN: Meanwhile, Ramos and Compean supporters are raising
money to buy air time for these television ads demanding the White House
pardon the former agents.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

WIAN: Finally, the Texas branch of the Latino advocacy group LULAC has
drafted a resolution supporting a pardon for Ramos and Compean. LULAC says
it believes the 11 and 12-year sentences were too harsh -- Lou.

*DOBBS: Well, it's what now, four months since the sentencing? LULAC taking
this stand. I have to give them credit. *

They have been absolutely absent in this case despite the fact that both of
these agents are Hispanic-Americans. Did they have any indication as to why
they were joining in this now?

*WIAN: No, they did not. We asked them for further clarification, more
information about -- about this position they've taken. They didn't give it
to us. We're still hoping we'll get it soon.
*
What we did find out, though, there's a couple of other leading Latino
advocacy groups. MALDEF and the National Council of La Raza still are
refusing to take up position on this issue -- Lou.

DOBBS: One would think to their great shame.

Thank you very much.

Casey Wian from Los Angeles.

Subject: Dear Lou Dobbs,
To: RosaRosales@lulac.org , "tgmorales@aol.com"

Dear Lou Dobbs,

Last week LULAC & the American GI Forum held a Press Conference regarding
the recent Border Patrol injustice.

Many of the DHS investigative reports were filed by Christopher Sanchez, who
appears to have played a major role in the DHS field investigation. Sanchez
appears to be playing a role shepherding the drug dealer around and framing
the evidence that ended up being used by Johnny Sutton to put Ramos and
Compean in prison for 11 and 12 years respectively." This cover up has
raised Red Flags and revealed Conflicts of Interest involving DHS Agent
Chris Sanchez and the wrongful Imprisonment of BP Agents Ramos & Compean.

Now, the local media after attending the press conference and conducting in
depth interviews with the LULAC and AGIF officials refuse to broadcast
anything involving this issue.

We believe there is an attempt to quash this story and the effort to bring
forth justice for these two men.

We are willing to appear on your show or do what is necessary to achieve
Justice for these men. We ask for your assistance in bypassing the local
media entities so we might bring justice for the agents.

One of the Media Present was Jaime Powell who was the only media contact
when the Cheney Whittington incident was released. We feel there is a govt
censorship in place on this issue. Once again we request your assistance.

Sincerely

Anton S Haley (Human Rights Advocate)

Joe,

I believe in you. I believe you can not only stand up against the grain for the little people but also with your passionate diligence and diplomacy achieve the goals set out by actually getting the grain to align and go with you (and your belief in the little people).

I know Joe Ortiz the man and will go to bat for his team any day of the week and twice on Sunday. In supporting Joe I have only good to speak of his incumbent opponent. In his other opponent, I speak of greatness in the endeavors of a man who has worn the hat of the RTA well and honorably. The main idea in this race is, both of Joe's opponents have had their opportunities and have delivered a success only limited by those in opposition to them; I believe Joe will gather the opposition and in unison they will all fly one way. I believe this is the case and I believe we need to give somebody else an opportunity to wear a hat as a community leader.

Give it a thought and give Joe a chance.

Sincerely

Jaime Kenedeno

Dear South Texas Legislators,

A BILL TO BE ENTITLED AN ACT TO REINSTATE ORIGINAL INTENT OF 74TH LEGISLATURE: 74R SB 1 was authored by Senator Ratliff; while the Sponsor was Sadler. In this legislation, the term Recalcitrant Person cogently replaced the "intentionally, knowingly, recklessly, or with criminal negligence failing to require the child to attend school" Parent.

It is respectfully requested this law be considered for amendment and correction for Truant Officer Accountability / responsibility and an affirmative defense to the prosecution under Section 25.093. Below for submission for consideration is a model from which to begin.

Amendment A & B for Parent Contributing to non attendance

Amendment a § 25.093. PARENT CONTRIBUTING TO NONATTENDANCE. (a) [If] When a warning is issued as required by Section 25.095(a), and the parent recalcitrantly or with criminal negligence fails to require the child to attend school as required by law, and the child has absences for the amount of time specified under Section 25.094, the parent commits an offense. Amendment b § 25.093. PARENT CONTRIBUTING TO NONATTENDANCE. (a) If a warning is issued as required by Section 25.095(a), the parent recalcitrantly or with criminal negligence fails to require the child to attend school as required by law, and the child has absences for the amount of time specified under Section 25.094, the parent commits an offense.
§ 25.095. WARNING NOTICES. A school district shall notify a student's parent if the student has been absent from school, without excuse under Section 25.087, on three days or parts of days within a four-week period.

(D) the parent is subject to prosecution under Section 25.093; and(E) if a parent did not receive anotice under Subsection (a) or (b) and
(2) the school district fails to demonstrate the due diligence in providing notice it is an affirmative defense to the prosecution under Section 25.093
(2) request a conference between school officials and the parent to discuss the absences. (3)It is an affirmative defense to
the prosecution under Section 25.093 if

(A) A Parent whose child is in

UPDATE CCPD ANOTHER CASE OF EXCESSIVE FORCE

Tasered Suspect Claims Police Brutality

Updated: Dec 16, 2008 11:14 PM

CORPUS CHRISTI - A Navy Corpsman was arrested and tasered for fleeing from police, and now the Corpusman is claiming he was the victim of excessive force and brutality.

A Navy Corpsman had been rushing home to get his fiance her emergency asthma medicines when police tried to pull him over. Police said he violated some traffic laws and refused to pull over.

However, the couple said the department owes them an apology and they have hired a lawyer.

"Her breathing became worse and I panicked," Nicholas Lowry, 26, said.

Lowry's fiance began having an asthma attack and he rushed to get her home Saturday night.

The police report indicated the officer started following the couple as soon as they sped right through the intersection of Baldwin and Ayers.

Lowry drove several blocks before stopping in his own driveway.

"I parked the car, turned the vehicle off, leaned over the window and I tried to tell the officer 'I'm sorry this is a medical emergency'," Lowry said.

However, before he could explain, Lowry said he was tasered, while sitting in his truck. He fell to the ground and was tasered again.

Lowry said things only escalated when Officer W. Hobbs criticized Lowry's service as a Navy Corpsman.

"Then, we walked in[to the jail] and he slammed me into a concrete wall. While taking me in, he laughed in my ear and said I'm gonna throw you in the cell with all the f-----, so they can rape you," Lowry said, of what Hobb's allegedly said.

Lowry's fiance took pictures of how officers scattered his military honors about while searching their truck.

Police said Lowry was already in the process of being cuffed when he tried to elbow the officer and a taser was authorized.
JK: IMHO The sentence below indicates the sentence above is untrue.

They also added that the bottom line was that it is a felony if a driver doesn't pull over for a cop.

"If this gentleman had pulled over, like he's required to do under the law, an ambulance could have been summoned or the officer could have escorted them to the hospital," CCPD Captain Todd Green said.

However, Lowry and his fiance said the behavior from the police was unacceptable .

"I think they should train their people. I felt like a criminal and we didn't do anything wrong," Nicki Redding, Lowry's fiance, said.

"It would be nice for someone to tell the truth and apologize," Lowry stated. "As far as the incident, I've forgiven the officer, I just want these kind of things to stop."

Police said the couple can file a complaint through their Internal Affairs Division and the arresting officer would be investigated.

Also, it's hard to validate that kind of situation because police said there was no dash cam video or recordings of the incident.

The couple is now talking with their lawyer and deciding what legal action they might pursue.

This was my posting that didn't show:

Even though this situation lends itself to many variables which are interpretable and may side on either the student or the CCPD office, I would like to bring up a few points which have not been addressed on prior postings.

1) Did the officer utilize CCPD issued equipment which require disposable charge cartridge replacements?
2) If so, did the CCPD pay for the replacement cartridge on the Taser gun that was used while the "Off Duty" Policeman was "moonlighting"?
3) What does the Charter School Board Policy state as far as corporal and/or physical punishment on students by school faculty?
4) Did we not do away with "shock therapy" in prior historical events namely Adolph Hitler and his experimentations with humans?
5) Before the student was provoked, was the student causing harm to himself or anyone else?
6) As some have stated that there were witnesses, I would pose the question why were the witnesses not given the "taser treatment" to redirect them out of the same area?
7) As a part time employ, the CCPD on site should have to abide by all educational rules and regulations. If a CCPD officer is not informed or properly trained in the Texas State Board of Educators guidelines, then he/she should not even be on a School Campus.
8) It was mentioned that the CCPD was dispatched, did the officer make a special trip to the school or was the officer in the school already? Who dispatched the officer?
9) Where is the surveillance video to protect the Students/Faculty?
10) As an educator, I am really taken back by the fact that School District Employees are mandated to not so much as even touch a student, but a part- time contract security employee can determine at will to taser a student who doesn't bow down before him. Is this the United States of America?
11) Was the officer truly threatened or was he/she wanting to get the taser use up as this was a current issue in the news last week?
12) Has the Charter School notified in writing to the students and the parents of the students attending that charter school that the Tasers are permitted on campus and the use of Tasers are permitted under the Charter Schools Board policy as a use of force and under what conditions that use of force is appropriate?
13) Has a taser ever been used in CCISD campus on a minor student? Why or why not?Who was Rodney Kings Lawyer?

The lack of statistical comparison notwithstanding, Corpus Christi police say their excessive force complaints are few.

Christopher Gale, a San Antonio lawyer known throughout the state for representing people with excessive force complaints, says otherwise. He claims it's one of the worst in the state for excessive force complaints.

"It's not just a couple of bad seeds. It's a pervasive attitude that you can get away with it, where they feel like they're above it and right now I think they are," Gale said. "I probably get three calls a day regarding complaints about CCPD."

Witnesses including faculty members dispute the events as reported and tell a different story

2008-11-13T08:43:00.001-08:00

There are several details that remain unrevealed and there are inaccuracies in this reporter's story.

The sweatbands do not have 3 inch spikes screws or nails. They are about 3/4 inch wood screws. (Why the need to exaggerate?) As far as classifying them as a weapon; I suppose any item with mass and volume can be employed as a weapon and could injure another if the right sequence of events occur. The sweatbands were worn as a form of expression and the only reason they are mentioned is to excuse the unprofessional acts of a whole group of officers who "moonlight" at the Charter School. The article fails to mention the Food fight / riot that occurred a few weeks ago nor does it mention the fights where the CCPD has been dispatched but even more astonishing is the level of violence that went on during these previous events and the use of tasers to regain control or order. In fact, there were no instances where officers used tasers at this campus although the factor of danger in the previous events was exponentially higher.

The student has worn these sweatbands for the last year and everyday for the entire school year without 1 complaint from faculty or administration. They were not in violation of the campus dress code and the Principal was in contact with the young man daily.

Since when does it become the Police Officers' duty to govern a student's behavior with a citation. A student who is on campus and enters an area that is "off limits" is disciplined by law enforcement? Where are the educators? Surely we will stop short of issuing citations to students who fail tests or even make wrong answers on their homework? Disruptive Behavior...... lets look at this a little closer. The author cites the an Officer Green who says Officer Mendoza said, "The student was in an area of the school that is off limits to students," We should examine the reason this area was off limits and why is it accessible to the students. The structure is now a makeshift building that used to be a Elementary school built a long time ago. So is it up to code? Probably not. Does it contain asbestos? Probably. If he was the only student in the forbidden area then what students did he disrupt and why would an officer say to him I am tired of your shit and it not be included in the report? Then if there was a legitimate reason for writing the student a citation should the officer not involve a campus administrator, should the officer not explain the reasoning for issuing the citation? These points are mentioned because the student repeatedly asked what the citation was for, what did he do to merit the hostility and to conference with the officer and the Principal. The reason the student refused to provide his name and personal information was because the officer refused to inform the student of the allegations, charges and or violations for which personal information was to be used and if in fact the Officer was tired of his shit then why would he still not know the student's name? So when the student refused to give his name because of the Officer's refusal to inform him of the charge for which the student's name was being required; the officer escalated the situation by threats of going to jail and then grabbing the boy and trying slam him into the wall when the student resisted being slammed into the wall and then reclaiming his personal space by instinctively repelling the officer and telling him to get away leave him alone as the student believed the Officer to be acting unlawfully towards him. The officer remained unthreatened physically escalated (threatened) the situation once again, asking the student if "he wanted to get tased" while drawing out his taser. The student once again pleaded with the officer that it was a big misunderstanding and wanted to go talk to the principal so they could settle the situation? He did not know the Principal was off campus. The student raised his hands as a surrendering gesture ( A PAX) and said lets go talk to the principal as he said those words the Officer fired the taser into his chest and remained holding the button down while the student seizured and soiled himself. It was a prolonged shock and it was out of frustration that the officer aced and not out of a physical threat or endangerment.

Witnesses including faculty members dispute the events as reported and tell a different story and will testify on the student's behalf.

The FBI will be investigating the incident and all other details will remain out of the media until investigation is complete.

The question to be pondered is if the student was attacking / swinging / aggressive towards the officer, then why was the charge of assaulting an officer not filed? If he was using a weapon then why not the charge of assault with a deadly weapon? Good questions right? The principal was off campus when the incident occurred. The student was never kicked out of any other district, he was placed there for a more structured and supervised environment. The student was one of the better students at the school. The Officers' conduct as a whole was unprofessional and in fact manufactured the events that occurred on 11/11/2008. The actions and the evidence will come to light as the vindication process moves forward.

Now lets go to the school and start asking some questions and not take the word of a principal and a short tempered officer both who are trying to cover their a$$e$.

Officer uses Taser on unruly student
Officer says student tried to hit him with homemade weapon

Staff Reports
Wednesday, November 12, 2008

CORPUS CHRISTI — An off-duty Corpus Christi police officer used a Taser on a 16-year-old charter school student Tuesday, after the officer said the student tried to strike him with a homemade weapon.

Capt. Todd Green said Officer David Mendoza, who was working security at Cesar E. Chavez Academy at the time of the incident, was going to cite the student at 11:54 a.m. Tuesday on a disruptive activities charge, a misdemeanor, after the student failed to follow the officer's directions to clear a hallway at the school, 3701 Mueller St. The student was in an area of the school that is off limits to students, Green said.

When the teen wouldn't give Mendoza his name, the officer attempted to arrest him and the teen pulled away, pushed Mendoza and swung at the officer with a black sweatband that had several 3-inch nails and screws in it, Green said.

Green said the teen had been warned in the past by police and school officials not to wear the wristband.

Mendoza used his Taser on the teen, who police said wasn't injured. Mendoza suffered a puncture wound to his right thumb and was given a tetanus shot.

The teen was taken to Nueces County Juvenile Justice Center on suspicion of resisting arrest, having a prohibited weapon and disruptive activities.

Green said police supervisors will conduct a review process within the next few days to determine whether Mendoza was justified in using the Taser in this instance. Such a review is standard whenever an officer uses a Taser on someone, Green said.

What are these police doing in schools? They are asked to be there by the administration?

Do kids really understand what this means - having a police officer in school? These are not the kindly, avuncular officers of yesteryear. We are putting trained killers in our schools, and the extent of their power is not explained to kids nor understood by the kids or teachers or administrators.

If a kid can be TAZED for being a punky kid and not giving his name fast enough to satisfy a taser-happy cop then we have a situation ripe for a killing.

This just doesn't sound right to me.

They need to bring back the good, old fashioned wooden paddle, and have ALL PARENTS sing-off on allowing teachers or administrators to use it when justified.

I signed a couple in my school days, and I turned out just fine.

Wow ! Trained killers ? I being a ex cop was never trained to kill . I was trained to protect and uphold the laws of Texas . Did you want the officer to let the kid hit him with a weapon ? The reason kids think they can get away with things like this is becouse of liberal people like you ! And I bet once he or she gets home they will tell there parents I didnt do that . And the parents will run to the first lawyer they see on tv . Yes it is a sad time bro . Yes it is !

I just love to hear comments concerning police in the schools. If the "so-called student" will attack a police officer, he would attack other students, staff members or faculty.

Everyone who complains about a police presence should spent a day in the halls of any high school campus in this city. Threaten a teacher or a police officer and you should expect to be taken down.

This "so-called student" is lucky that his head was not caved-in.

Great job by the police officer...tase any out of control individulals on any CCISD campuses!

these are also not the kindly, avuncular kids of yesteryear.
the police officer was protecting himself and other students around him by using his taser. It seems to me the police officer showed professional restraint with his use of force.

the kid was wielding a weapon which could have caused serious damage. he was not being a "punky" kid as you say.

great job,

In response to 246926, All CCISD schools have Police officer's on campus to help maintain order and protect the students and faculty from the likes of juvienille deliquents walking around with home made weapons, like sweat bands with nails and screws. As far as this particular school, it is a school were unruly kids go after they get suspended from their regular high school, in short a school for trouble makers. So having extra police officers there only makes sense. As far as the kids knowing why the officers are on site, it's because of them and they are well aware of it. This little thug thought he could cause some harm to an officer of the law with a home made weapon he had no buisness having in his possession. This kid should just be thankful he was only tazer and not shot in the head by a bullet for being such a dumb s@hit. That officer had every right to do what he did, to protect himself. As far as arresting him for not giving his name, well he should have gave his name, if he didn't want to get arrested. I can already tell you this punk wil graduate from this alternative school and go to "COLLEGE", or how they like to refer to it as Pen State (penitentiary) where he will graduate with honors, as a member of a prison gang. And you sound like a concerned parent of one of these students, so make sure you explain to them the consequenses of their action before they get tazered as well.

Obviously, the cop was defending himself, and if warranted, could've used deadly force.

However....I still do not understand the following:
"When the juvenile would not give the officer his name, the officer attempted to arrest the juvenile..."

At alternative campuses, the administrators must keep a tight reign. These students have already been expelled from the traditional campuses, so the rules are much stricter and with harsher consequences. Also, the officers can't be expected to remember the names of every student on campus (students at these campuses come and go). So his asking for the student's name is probably standard procedure. And, having been at CCISD campuses, I know what the typical response from one of these students would be: anything ranging from "NOYB" to "go to h**ll" or "WTF do you want to know for?"

His 1st mistake was being disruptive in the hallway. 2nd not giving the Officer his name for the citation he was about to recieve. 3rd taking a swing on a Officer with a homemade weapon. 3 strikes, we're out. Hope he enjoyed the shock of his life.

I have seen a police officer at my daughters school but he was in uniform, do they usually work at the school in their own clothing? article states off duty officer? was he employed by this school? Do off duty police officers usually carry their pistols and stun guns? Just trying to figure out why the kid would do this, unless he did not know this guy was an officer. P.O. with their tats and attitude out of their uniform you might confuse them with a thug.

Good point. Did he identify himself as an officer? My daughter once told me that an officer at her school started picking on a student just to get on the guys nerves and then when that boy became agitated he threw him on the floor and arrested him for what I am not sure but again per my daughter this young guy was a good kid? Anyways regardless the kid having a weapon was uncalled for and yes he should be punished.

Hell zap the parents too, maybe that way they will will finally have something in common with their THUG son to talk about since they never taught him manners.

June 22, 2004

The Supreme Court upheld a state law that makes it a crime to refuse to tell the police one's name when stopped for suspicious behavior, a ruling that strengthens the ability of law enforcement officers to detain citizens even where they lack enough evidence for a full arrest.

SO THERE!!!

It's only a crime for a person to refuse to identify himself if he has been lawfully arrested.

Of course, in this case the officer could arrest the punk for trespassing on school grounds- after such lawful arrest it would be a crime for him not to identify himself.

Actually you responded to the wrong poster but I will respond to your remark. First how can you call me a moron when you dont even know me? Second of all I do believe my daughter because she has never given me any reason not to believe her. I am not saying that it was right what this kid did because it was very wrong but in some cases the kid is not always at fault.

I've heard from teachers who, when trying to question or correct a kid in the hallway or at achool, will have the student just walk away and not even address the teacher.

They think that by ignoring authority, they can simply walk away from impending discipline.

Could you imagine what kind of damage he could have done to another student with a weapon like that?

Charter School. That says it all. I can't say I've heard anything productive about them. Look how many are under investigation for falsifying enrollment, embezzlement, misuse of funds, etc. If the administrations are run that way, why would the curriculum lead students to a better path?

The Bottom Line is that a (KID) was Attacked in School by a Police Officer, just because some fool has a badge does not give him the right to tase a KID. The cop should be tased too to see how it feels, imagine a kid!

Yes the kid did get tased and I would agree that doesn't look good on the officer, but WHY WAS HE TASED? Because the kid tried to use a conciled weapon on a POLICE officer, is that so hard to understand? There's a reason that this kid goes to this school and its not because he's too smart for CCISD!!!!!!!

Thats the whole story, no matter what you hand wringers have to say about it.
So now, he will live to commit even more crimes, I'll bet anyone lunch, that this "child" has a record already, and if you chart his future it is full of additional crime and ultimately an early death.

The kid pulled the shank in self defense. He felt threatened by a man who demanded to speak to him, invaded his personal space, and was grabbing him (assaulting him). We later find out it was an officer trying to arrest the kid, but that was never disclosed during the ensuing scuffle. The kid did not know.
In addition, doesn't the kid have the right to have a weapon? I mean, if I can buy truck loads of semi-auto weapons in TX, I guess its ok for this kid to have a homemade weapon, right?

Even though you can buy truckloads of weapons, you cant carry them on school grounds, even if you're a delinquent 17 year old punk. This is the "prison" school within the district, this punk knew the deal when he took that homemade wristband to school.

He's just lucky a LEO confronted him and the punk didn't come across a CHL holder and get capped.

The officers are off duty but yes in uniform and yes with their weapons. The kid knew what he was doing. He was tryin to be "hard" in front of his friends which SHOULD tell u right there why the officers are in the schools in the first place. These kids arent playing anymore they are really trying to do some serious harm. And who are you to comment on the way the OFF duty officers look?

Attn: Cesar Chavez Charter Academy Needs Your Attention

2008-11-12T08:27:00.000-08:00

A student () at Cesar Chavez Academy was tased by a CCPD moonlighter yesterday 11/11/2008. The use of tasers are in lieu of deadly force and as numerous witnesses state there was no reason for the assault. The Principal Tracy Saenz was off campus when the incident occurred and proceeded to defend the officer as if she were to have witnessed the event. She attempted to discredit the student with exaggerated untruths and when the student learned of the negative remarks made by the Principal tears came to his eyes. He believed that she believed in him. It is requested an impromptu inspection be conducted without forewarning. Incompetence will reveal itself even before the school day begins as there are numerous groups of students and non students on campus without supervision it appears very trashy and in violation of education policy.

A: It is Simple, people refrain from buying advertising space. Here in South Texas it is customary for Campaigns to place ads in Political Publications such as El Defenzor as it has been the norm for the last decade. As for the article Nueces County Jail Delayed, why does one continue to Acquiesce.

As for the DEBATE w/ Homero, When & Where? I for one would enjoy watching the Joust.

Hell, it would have to be better than Juan Garcia vs. Seaman or even vs Todd Hunter.

BTW, Are the RISD teachers going to get paid today on time?

[http://eldefenzor.blogspot.com/2008/09/shamsies-love-for-robstown-and-throwing.html]
As I was winding up a productive and pleasantly long weekend and contemplated the upcoming elections, I was jolted to reality by a call which stated that Mr. Shamsie was encouraging people to boycott my paper and "not to believe" everything that was printed. The comments were made on 104.9 radio Sunday, August 31, 2008 at 7:55 p.m. on 104.9. Shamsie was a special guest of Mr. Roland Garza whom I have no quarrel unless he seeks one. I would respond IMMEDIATELY TO SHAMSIE and gladly pick up the gauntlet he has thrown down publically by asking FORMER ONE TERM JUDGE TERRY SHAMSIE for an immediate public debate and asking my bloggers to review the following:

1) Why is Terry Shamsie wanting my paper boycotted after he came to me using a carrot and/or stick to shut me up after LENCHO RENDON TRIED THE SAME THING IN MY OWN BARRIO?? Thug tactics don't work and neither does bribery. Please remember that.

2) Interesting that Terry Shamsie Rd. leads right smack dab into the fair grounds and he helped push Abel Herrero to bring that cottage industry investment home to the tune of over 90 million. It's all on the record. Coming soon.

3) Interesting Shamsie is now attacking and blasting the superindentent in Robstown who questioned building contracts, including one middle school that has not been finished. One must question that while on his one term, Shamsie and other commissioners including Peggy Banales, Oscar "Hollywood Ortiz" and even Chuck C. pumped so many dollars into Robstown while the rest of the county did not receive as special attention. Hmmm. Food for thought bloggers.

4) one marvels at why the middle school is not completed and everyone and their sister had subcontract jobs there. Azteca ring a bell?.

5) One marvels at why special contractors and subcontractors get jobs on construction jobs AND OTHERS DO NOT. PERHAPS WE SHOULD AUDIT WHO GOT THOSE JOBS UNDER SHAMSIE'S WATCH?. (see number 4 above).

6) I myself marvel at the shrills of laughter which are recorded in commissioners court regarding the 95 million dollars the taxpayers are fronting on a economic property like the fairgrounds and the whole county has to eat the cost through rising taxes and former Judge Shamsie always prided himself on frugality.
Last count I think it is losing 2 million dollars a year and while people have streets named after them the taxpayers suffer. No wonder our school and property taxes are skyrocketing. Yes I want children in Robstown to have laptops Mr. Shamsie, but I also want children IN THE WHOLE COUNTY TO HAVE THE SAME. Why are you hellbent on restructuring the school board in Robstown and are analyzing the RISD books? Who hired you?What is your end? How much are you getting paid as an accountant or "economic advisor" and what is your long term plan. Everyone knows you are a financial wizard. Hello?

7) Why is the one term judge worried about kids getting a laptop to go to school in Robstown now years after these issues could have been pressed by Judge Shamsie and why is he not concerned about kids at Wynn Seale or Cunningham as much, apparently? Why is he reviewing the RISD school records and has been hired to do so over the summer? Perhaps we should analzye the records and spending for the last 6 years minimum in Nueces County or perhaps others are doing that already. Let's pull a huge beam out of some key people's eye....

SHAMSIE: I will not be shut down, bribed, pushed around or tolerate being boycotted. The backhanded comment to not "buy the paper" and to "boycott" the paper is a way of saying don't buy El Defenzor. Just come out and say it and don't hide behind innuendo. This at least gives me comfort in one way: You are worried my friend, as well you should be. Keep talking on the radio on your show to a strong signal. My voice is growing ever clearer to not a signal but a world wide web which reaches millions, God willing.

And for those who try to characterize El Defenzor as a tabloid not based in fact, well, well, well:
Much more facts, figures and public records coming. The gauntlet has been thrown down by Mr. Shamsie and I am picking it up and challenge him to the utmost gentlemanly debate in public and on radio at his choosing, any time any place, preferably on 104.9 where a boycott was attempted. LET'S CLEAR THE AIR SHALL WE?. Even if 104.9 breaks their word again and tries to keep me off the air or delay me as they did Friday, I still have the blogs, paper and TV and when I am gone 10 more people will pick up the cause. The offer for a debate is here. Will you pick up the glove I have now thrown down? Mr. Shamsie likes quoting facts and figures: SO DO I MY FRIEND AS YOU SHALL SOON SEE AND SOME SHALL BE VERY UNPLEASANT FOR YOU AND YOUR CLICK.

Yes, my bloggers, I am shocked to. I am very disappointed that my business is being blasted on radio by Shamsie in a backhanded way. he is a lawyer, he is smart enough (almost) to not say my newspaper's name but never fear, for every action their is a reaction. This is not about a duel in egos or pride, it is about righting wrongs that have been going on for far too long in Robstown. First Amendment, here we come. Please standby. Politics is one thing, but answering to the public is quite another and it is coming. In a way I am glad the battlelines have been drawn. We seek truth and many seek a buck.

Coup D' Maitre: Nueces County Jail Delayed

The Nueces County Jail / Federal Prisoner Removal was a Political Smear and a total Sham directed at Larry Olivarez and Mikal Watts at the expense of Nueces County

It is this Publication's objective to prove the above statement.

All submissions are posted regardless of position or standing.

Now, to the heart of the matter; the "Shamsie Tick" FKA the "Shamsie Clique" Network of Avarice and Fiscal Loophole Specialties.

Dear Mr. Shamsie,

It is ironic how you entered the Body of Christ via Robstown. You pinched and cut, denied and fired, released and demoted your supporters their families and the community they inspired to elect you. A bang up JOB you performed with fiscal expediency and without one drop of loyalty (except in the end to your cronies).

Mr. Boss of Bosses, Jefe de Jefes, or fiscal deconstructionists (creative accountant); history has proved you a frugal man however one must question the oddball choices of highballin contractors (DOS Logistics & Omega Contracting) without a bid process. It turns out they are your cronies and you knew your days were numbered. Who are they one might ask? They are: Rene Rodriguez, George Finley (CC Distributors), Jaime Capelo, Terry Shamsie, Mack Rodriguez (Rainbow Building), Oscar Ortiz, Mike Rendon, Lencho Rendon and others to be defined. This faction of Politicos, presently are working within the Solomon Machine while biding their time. In the past, this faction has attempted to undermine and overthrow Congressman Ortiz. Randy Delay works under the Blessing of Solomon Grande.

DOS Logistics & Omega Contracting Inc.-

Yet, the county is paying three times the customary rate for engineering and inspection services, according to engineers in government and private practice.Instead of assigning the county's staff engineer to handle the project, Nueces County Judge Terry Shamsie negotiated $7.6 million for engineering with Omega Contracting Inc. and $7.95 million for inspection with DOS Logistics, as the county revamps 280 miles of mostly flat, straight, narrow, non-shouldered rural roadway., Source: CCCT,

DOS Logistics' registered agent is Eric Chin and the company is based in Weslaco, according to records from the Texas Secretary of State. Corpus Christi businessman George Finley said he started the company in 1999 to pursue minority contracts and that he no longer owns it. Source: CCCT
DeLay did legal work
Randy DeLay, a Houston lawyer and lobbyist, whose brother is U.S. House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, was the company's registered agent when it was incorporated in 1999. Finley said Randy DeLay's only role with DOS Logistics was handling the legal work of incorporating the company for Finley.Last year, Shamsie and County Commissioner Oscar Ortiz unsuccessfully sought to award DeLay a $1.2 million contract to lobby on behalf of local military installations. Source: CCCT

Texas Secretary of State records indicate that Omega Contracting is based in Dallas and belongs to Luis Spinola. Spinola also owns Azteca Enterprises. Both firms are described on their Web site as contractors that seek government contracts set aside for minorities. Source: CCCT

Public Private Strategies-

Randy DeLay, owner of Public Private Strategies Consult, Inc, said he told Nueces County Judge Terry Shamsie and his assistant, Tyner Little, that his firm was withdrawing its proposal to represent the area. Source: CCCT

Last year, Shamsie and County Commissioner Oscar Ortiz unsuccessfully sought to award DeLay a $1.2 million contract to lobby on behalf of local military installations. Source: CCCT

Regional Transportation Authority Board Chairman Miguel Rendon (Lencho Rendon's Brother) said politics may be the undercurrent motivating two city councilmen who were critical this week of plans to put a rail trolley in downtown Corpus Christi.
Source: CCCT
Rendon said he suspects City Councilmen Rex Kinnison and Brent Chesney voiced opposition to the trolley because the City Council secretly did not want the RTA to renew a $120,000 contract in January with lobbyist Randy DeLay's company, Private Public Strategy Consulting. DeLay is the brother of House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, a Republican from Sugar Land. Source: CCCT

The Correction Corporations of America (CCA)-

Private Prison-Industrial complex such as the Corrections Corporation of America (CCA), the GEO Group (formerly known as Wackenhut), Correctional Services Corporation (CSC) and Correctional Medical Services.,

The Federal Prison Lobby Bureau of Prisons-
Randy DeLay, the brother of House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Tex.), lobbied the Bureau of Prisons to send its prisoners to RCDC [Reeves County Detention Facility], at the behest of county officials. Randy DeLay isn't the only member of his family with an interest in corrections. In December, Rep. DeLay accepted a $100,000 check from the CCA for the DeLay Foundation for Kids.,

Does anybody remember the April Primary and the Robstown Private Prison Contractor (LCS) Leverage of Public Opinion that affected the election?

Political ad could alter deal
Nonetheless, the company's owners fired off statements Tuesday and Wednesday through lawyer Tonya Webber questioning why they were being pulled into the political fray and refusing to comment to "rumors or allegations that the negative campaign" had jeopardized the company's plans for the facility.
"LCS Company officials will not respond to questions regarding whether the company will change its plans to build a corrections facility in Nueces County," Webber said. "They will not make that decision until after next Tuesday's election."
Commissioner Betty Jean Longoria said it would be unfortunate if the political ad kills the project. Source: CCCT

CAMPAIGN MUD BEING SLUNG HARD Company officials refused to comment on whether the ad has now jeopardized the plans to build the corrections facility, saying it might unfairly impact the election.

Lencho Rendon was Pete Alvarez's Political Consultant.

Lencho is allied in business with Randy Delay.

Why would the Louisiana Contractor (Robstown Federal Prison Project) side against a candidate of Lencho Rendon?

Was Lencho squeezed?

WATT were Lencho's intentions regarding Pete Alvarez?

Who wanted to eliminate Alvarez for a candidate they could or thought they could control?

Is that candidate Jimmy Rodriguez or Jim Kaelin?

Is there any truth that Kaelin is being courted (or has received campaign donations) from WATT Democrat?

WATT could Shamsie and Delay (with his Federal Lobby influence) do to affect the Federal Prisoner Removal?

DeLay's company is paid to conduct federal lobbying

RTA chairman Mike Rendon and board members Roland Barrera and Joe Benavides said they are pleased with DeLay's lobbying progress. Source: CCCT"I think his strong point is that he knows the members on the Senate and the House," Rendon said. "If you hired me as a lobbyist, I don't have the contacts that he has in the upper echelon of committee members. That is where the influence comes." Source: CCCT

WATT initiated the scrutiny was the abuse of a Political Familia from Robstown. In the past, the Nueces County Jail Conditions have never been an issue. The Jail became an issue only after the scheme to railroad $1.2 million to lobbyist Randy Delay's company Private Public Strategy Consulting was derailed.

Last year, Shamsie and County Commissioner Oscar Ortiz unsuccessfully sought to award DeLay a $1.2 million contract to lobby on behalf of local military installations.

"County Commissioner Betty Jean Longoria said Shamsie was "the driving force" behind the two contracts (DOS Logistics & Omega Contracting Inc). Shamsie recommended the two firms to the commissioners, she said.She said she was anxious to get the project moving because a majority of the roads in need of work are in her precinct and at the time she did not notice that she was never shown any qualifications for either firm, she said."

BRACC, BREAK or BROKE while sacrificing our "money maker" (the Nueces County Jail) was no longer a dilemma for a Lame Duck Nueces County Constitutional Judge (Terry already knew he wasn't coming back) to invoke the Federal Marshal's into his vendetta with Mikal Watts and Larry Olivarez. One phone call to Randy and the Bureau of Prisons went to work.

Was / is Randy Delay with the support of Solomon Grande our Nueces County insider connection to the Federal Prison Lobby?

The RCDC is a private-public partnership in more ways than one. Randy DeLay, the brother of House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R–Tex.), lobbied the Bureau of Prisons to send its prisoners to RCDC, at the behest of county officials.Randy DeLay isn't the only member of his family with an interest in corrections. In December, Rep. DeLay accepted a $100,000 check from the CCA for the DeLay Foundation for Kids.

The Awards (evidenced by Larry Olivarez) and the Federal Prisoner occupancy dividend was never a problem until after the $1.2 Million to DELAY was denied.

For a fellow who conducts his business out of the glare of publicity, Randy DeLay has a way of popping up in headlines - and generating controversies - in these parts.

WHO wanted the Nueces County Jail to be a problem right in the middle of the County Leadership Races?

Randy DeLay was hired to help Reeves County lobby to get more federal inmates from the federal Bureau of Prisons & Reinstate employees JOBS Source: CCCT

Who crashed in during the Primary from Louisiana with concerns about the building of a Private Prison?

"I remember Lencho telling me that his ideal dream team (to help BND) would be (lobbyist) Randy DeLay, (Monterrey consult-ant) Esther Rodriguez and 'Madam Ping,'" Lasseigne said.

A Dream Team of Randy Delay Lobbying in Washington, Solomon Sr. nicely positioned on the House Arms Services Committee and his influential "friends" such as Congressman Ike Skelton, the distract and the DELAY side JOB Lobby at the Federal Bureau of Prisons / CCA / Private Prison Profiteering CON. The Daytime JOB is the Defense Contractor Ocean Shipholdings

Total Defense Contracts, 1998-2003: $1,094,875,569

Ocean Shipholdings Inc. builds, repairs and operates ocean-going marine vessels. Over the past six years, the company ranked as the Pentagon's second-largest provider of marine transportation of equipment.

Many contract dollars are classified as going to a small business or small disadvantaged business (minority-owed, etc.). Set-aside contracts are reserved for small businesses; large companies cannot compete for them.
According to records from the Texas Secretary of State. Corpus Christi businessman George Finley said he started DOS Logistics in 1999 to pursue minority contracts

With the Shamsie Dream Team, the Nueces County housing Federal Prisoners was never an issue, not even when the Mold Contamination was an issue were Federal Marshalls involved. Evidently, the Mold remains even though the Commissioners Court and Shamsie never addressed it (or did they ignore it?).

Our Hearts & Prayers Extend Out To Luz & The Garcia Giraldez Familia. May God Be w/ this Wonderful Lady, Mother, Mother In Law & Grandmother.

All politics aside.......when prayers are needed...............
Posted on May 23, 2008 at 04:57:27 PM by Jaime & D1

May Jesus and His Father Be with Juan & Denise Garcia for her mom and Juan's Mother In Law.

We will be praying for you Luz!!!!!!!!!
***************************************************************************
A mere request that God will heal has no power to gain more of the divine presence than is always at hand."

Lord Jesus,
I come with the leper's boldness
repeating his prayer:
"If you wish, you can make me clean."

Banished from home, family and friends,
he shouldered his way through the crowd
shrinking before him,
afraid and revulsed by his condition.
Yet you welcomed him, O Lord.

I pray his simple prayer,
and I remember too that prayer you spoke
in your aloneness in Gethsemani.

"Father, if you will,
let this cup pass from me."
Help me find peace and strength
in your holy will, O God.
Amen.

Remember the Cucuy vs Two Fer adversarial relationship and how the perpetuated is perpetuated

VS.

A few observations before we dig in:

Remember the Cucuy vs Two Fer adversarial relationship and how the perpetuated is perpetuated; carried out with the Police Union as the activating medium, a means to an end if you are Rene Rodriguez.

Remember when the CCCT printed the Capelo Transcript with TWO FER asking the questions?

Q: Do you know, sir, whether or not you aided and -- you were aided and abetted by Rene Rodriguez in depriving Citgo of its honest service of its lawyer -- you, sir, whether you sold out -- you sold out to Rene Rodriguez?

A I did not.

Q You did not sell out. Have you ever heard the word in Spanish called "Vendido", V-E-N-D-I-D-O?

A Yes, I have.

Q And that's what you are, right, sir, a "Vendido"?

A No, I think that was -- the term was used for you and your family during the senatorial race.

Q Yes, sir. Yes, sir. That's what you are, right?

A No, that's not.

Q Yes, sir.

A I think that's one of the reasons why you're so upset.

Q I'm upset because I cannot stand a corrupt lawyer like you, sir.

Another intangible that undoubtedly figures in, is the position of Commander David Torres and the position he took questioning the integrity of some of his superiors and subjective investigations within the department; "In his suit, CCPD Commander David Torres claims he was the victim of retaliation after he raised questions about some investigations and some actions by his superiors".

Commander Torres says his problems began with the investigation into allegations that some officers were using their position to buy vehicles out of the impound lot. He claims he began looking into those allegations, and for his trouble, he ended up being named a suspect.
From outside the arena and upon watching and listening to Commander Torres, it appears he has not a conflict with the impound lot players as he is most troubled over the actions by his superiors.

No doubt, one of the Officers caught up in the impound lot overstep is a very charismatic and influential leader within the rank and file. No doubt Bryan Smith would breath easier with the threat removed. Commander Torres is the scapegoat here in this scenario. Who wanted the charismatic officer gone more, Torres or Chief Smith?

Now, with Celis, (and I dont give a damn about defending him, he is a big boy and can take care of himself); with Cucuy YANQUI'ing Celis, it is about bringing in the DRAMA factor, the intrigue and following the path to strongarm and dismember our Nueces Democratic Party so as to hijack & control a ready made party structure for themselves. So by bringing in Celis he helps the Republican ticket or so they believe. It is truly "whore-iffic" when one YANQUIS his own Culture worse than the MAN himself. Rene Rodriguez, Terry Shamsie, Jaime Capelo, and the like are aligned for the time being with the Mamons De La Solomons.

Last night after the 10 o'clock news we received several calls, some of our community leaders and from both sides of the aisle. Only one went on the record, American GI Forum Joe A Ortiz reasoned it out this way, he said it was wrong to drag Celis back out in the public eye! why did he do it he didnt need to do that?

In my response to Joe My feelings for Mr Celis and his SNAFU are far outweighed by the community's good and I was not going to defend him because we (@Los Kenedenos) had already given him the opportunity to shelter underneath our umbrella. So anyway, Joe says to me it is not about defending Celis (he is a big boy) it is just how Cucuy used one of his own culture to disparage and create a circus like atmosphere. I concur in that from a Civil Rights POV and with the progress we work so hard to exemplify Rene went out and did the very thing we ask everyone else to refrain from; he YANQUI'D another Mejicano and in doing so strikes a blow to our Nueces Democratic Party and possibly touching the run for the oval office. It is OK if that is how you want it to be>>>>>> YOU GOT IT,....... TAKE IT AWAY........ ESSO>>>>>>>>>

Oh yes, and for the record the publication cited by KIII news is not where this info originated, YOURS TRULY put it in writing over the last 2 1/2 years. Those guys like to use our stuff as their own in a futile attempt to feed their lacking self confidence. I have tried to read it but, there is no punch, no faith and definitely, no spirit.

Fwd: Danny Brooks, Senior Vice President & CFO of Value Bank.

2008-05-09T13:50:00.000-07:00

Just a few minutes ago we have learned the meeting between CCISD Executives & Advocates who are pursuing Justice for Carroll High School head volleyball coach Doris Elizondo has ended without resolution.

What does that mean?

It means CCISD officials continue to employ subtle exclusionary phrases within their statements in effect disclaiming the CCISD officials from accountability while the Caller Times spin quote, misquote, decieve quote Carroll Principal Bobby Templeton:
"Carroll principal: Elizondo not reassigned" and coupled it with, "Players, fans gather to protest volleyball coach's possible exit" illustrating the appearance of a festive event (due to the percieved positive outcome) in the Article's Title

"Carroll principal: Elizondo not reassigned
Players, fans gather to protest volleyball coach's possible exit"

This technique is used to foster hope; "reassuring" the Public, while buying time & digression are the real underlying motivators. Actually,........ right now; at this time, Carroll High School head volleyball coach Doris Elizondo is NOT being transferred.

Carroll High School head volleyball coach Doris Elizondo currently is not being reassigned, according to one school official. CCCT
Carroll High School principal Bobby Templeton said Wednesday that "as of today, no final decision has been reached by this school district concerning the reassignment of Coach Elizondo."
"Coach Elizondo, and all other coaches and administrators, are fully aware that reassignment of job duties is a possibility," Templeton added. "Since this is a personnel issue, we cannot comment on specific details. However, issues have been raised by parents, staff and community members concerning her actions, which prompted my investigation into these matters."

CCISD officials are denying recorded statements from CHS Athletic Director Terry Morris, who told Elizondo that "she would be reassigned in May". CCISD Officials are counting on the inadmissibility of tape recorded conversations and in undeclared admissions are saying "YEAH BUT, YOU CANT PROVE IT".

Is that the kind of people we have working for us?

Like Susie told Mr Elliff, She was here when Dana WIlliams was Superintendent and she described the relationship. She was here when Benson was Superintendent and Now D Scott Elliff is CCISD Superintendent. We will still be here when he is gone.

What happens when one has a accident in a company car?...............

and he dont work for the company?

Yes, forgive me for introducing you as Danny Brooks, Board Member of Value Bank. Let me start over; Please welcome Danny Brooks, Senior Vice President & Chief Financial Officer of Value Bank.

You state:
"I have not attended a Carroll H.S. athletic event, nor contributed a dollar since my daughter graduated in 2000, hardly qualifying as a "huge" Tiger anything.'

Why not tell Mr Heitkamp's daughter that, "You are not "huge" Tiger anything"?

You claim, "I have no interest in the controversy" yet you interjected postulates to the contrary:

To which side of the controversy does the following statement lean, "It seems to me that concerned parents should have some level of interest or concern, right or wrong, while letting the authorities make the decisions"

"That to me is not politics."

"But when outside political special interest groups like LULAC & the GI Forum get involved, that's all about politics"

Which statements above convey to a reasonable person (that); the author "has no interest in the controversy"

"Again, just an outsider's opinion, but you might consider rewording that "politics" statement."
I gotta call it like I see it Danny. that is just plain bullsh/t.

Let us revisit the statement, "But when outside political special interest groups like LULAC & the GI Forum get involved, that's all about politics"
Why did LULAC and the American G I Forum need to "get involved"?

And why did I write to you, "I believe an apology is in order."

A: Because a powerful political agenda was grinding up a little person who was in the way. The little person was perceived to be in the way of the installation of a young athlete not quite ready to be installed. But money & power cannot buy what has to be earned. That is why you should apologize.

Was there a whisper last year to bump her up to the varsity?

Did Van Matre pass it on or make it happen (and then vacate)?

Did Mr H meet with Mr Elliff with gestures of killing a CCISD bond election?

We already know Mr Elliff passes the hot potatoes to the Cervantes Group?

So who sent the A D?

Cervantes or Elliff?

Maybe, you are an outsider and have absolutely no idea what I write about herein; however, I find it highly unlikely given the circumstances.

Just an outsider's opinion eh? The coach of the Mary Carroll High School Lady Tiger Volleyball Team is being forced out for a reason and you claim to have no interest in the controversy" however, you make several inferences in stating, "I have not attended a Carroll H.S. athletic event, nor contributed a dollar since my daughter graduated in 2000, hardly qualifying as a "huge" Tiger anything."

Now we are getting somewhere and yes indeed, you do have a dog in this fight.

You did support the Mary Carroll High School Tigers and their athletic program.
You have attended Carroll H.S. athletic events
You did, "contribute" financially to Tiger Athletics.

Finally, Mr. Heitkamp's daughter is on a winning Lady Tiger Volleyball Team and evidently Mr H is a huge fan of the Lady Tiger Volleyball Team and Tiger Athletics in general. I say this alone qualifies you as an interested party.

You have the balls to respond; thanks for the joust. You also have my respect and while the initial email was addressed to many; the message is for a select few who will receive it from good, loyal, team players such as yourself.

Thank You

Anton

I have no interest in the controversy. However, I find it interesting that you say "Politics have no place in high school athletics"....yet, here comes LULAC & the GI Forum????

It seems to me that concerned parents should have some level of interest or concern, right or wrong, while letting the authorities make the decisions. That to me is not politics. But when outside political special interest groups like LULAC & the GI Forum get involved, that's all about politics.

Again, just an outsider's opinion, but you might consider rewording that "politics" statement.

Wake up boys and girls, Politics have no place in high school athletics. Who would transfer a winning coach right before the season begins and more importantly why? Once the Article is written it will be published and all of the research connecting the dots to the ones who leverage bond finances and campaign finances for a position that can only be earned.

TTFN

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LULAC Council No. 1 and the American GI Forum will hold a press conference to address concerns regarding the forced transfer of Mary Carroll High School Volleyball Head Coach Doris Elizondo; who holds 149 wins and 5 losses as well as 5 consecutive District Championships and 2 undefeated District seasons while at Carroll High School .

Certain members of the Carroll High School Boosters have pressured Carroll High School Administrators to transfer Ms. Elizondo for reasons that have not been made clear or were either not presented to Ms. Elizondo in a timely fashion; allowing her to address or correct them.

LULAC Council No. 1 and the American GI Forum feel that Ms. Elizondo has been denied due process within the CCISD administration and therefore, her civil rights are being violated both by the school's administrators and those members of the Carroll High School Boosters who have targeted her for removal.

The press conference will be held in front of Mary Carroll High School (on Tiger Lane side in front of the school offices) at 4:00 pm on Wednesday, May 7, 2008 .

The 21 million is a smoke screen. Where is the objectivity? Why no mention of Solomon Ortiz, Randy Delay, Ping Lee Cohen, Kenneth Cohen, Access Asia and of course the leveraging of the esteemed Chief of Staff. Would You like to buy a Rolex? JK

BND wants to get over the nonexistent bridge

Won't that happen when all of the lost money is restored and the criminals go to jail? It won't happen just because you say so.
There appears to be consent among Brownsville Navigation District board members that it's time to close the chapter into the $21 million that BND spent on a non-existent bridge.

The board met Wednesday and without discussion, unanimously voted to pay $302,561 in legal fees to three law firms regarding the litigation with James D. Dannenbaum's Houston-based Dannenbaum Engineering Corp.

BND board Chairman Martin Arambula said Thursday that the unanimous vote was indicative that board members wanted "closure."
Will people go to jail?
The Cameron County District Attorney's office will receive full cooperation in the prosecution of currently unknown parties indicted for the alleged theft of millions in pursuit of an international bridge, the Brownsville Navigation District promised Thursday.

BND chairman Martin Arambula made the promise in a written statement. It followed Wednesday's decision by a grand jury which found no criminal activity associated with BND in relation to the $21 million spent trying to secure an international bridge from the Port of Brownsville to Matamoros.

Much of the money went to Dannenbaum Engineering Corporation for services that were never received by the District, according to Cameron County DA Armando Villalobos.

GREETINGS South Texas I announce The Authority on Inside Contracting in our Ports.

A Cottage Industry is:

A program, process or practice that takes up lengthy and/or inordinate amounts of time while detracting from the main task at hand.

Cottage industry: join boards, get info, every time there is a bond election or referendum to build something, Barry, Fulton, ABC-Al Jones and Mike Carrell Frost Bank. People think they are good Samaritans. Yeah, right.

COTTAGE INDUSTRY: USE FEDERAL AND STATE FUNDS TO LINE THEIR POCKETS. LENCHO IS not innocent. He is replicating it on a grander scale. Using Solomon's name, the port and they are trying to get the taxpayer money.

Inside contracting

Inside contracting is the practice of hiring contractors who work inside the proprietor's factory. It replaced the putting out system, where contractors worked in their own facilities. Inside contracting was the system favored by the Springfield and Harper's Ferry Armories. Since the manufacturing system developed in the armories also became popular (the American system of manufacturing), manufacturers in the early 19th century tended to hire people trained in the armories as managers. They brought with them the practice of inside contracting.

The manufacturer hired inside contractors and provided materials and machinery. Each inside contractor was expected to hire his own employees and meet certain production and quality goals, but everything else was left to him. As a result, the system rewarded ingenuity, but also rewarded local optimization. For example, it was to the inside contractor's benefit to allow machinery to deteriorate toward the end of his contract since maintenance was costly and he might not reap the long-term benefit if he didn't get another contract. The system was eventually replaced with the factory system, in which everyone was an employee of the manufacturer directly.

HOW THINGS WORK PART II: TERRY CARTER BEING ATTACKED BY THE EDC

EDC TRYING TO DO A HATCHET JOB AGAINST TERRY CARTER. CALLER TIMES' PATRICK BIRMINGHAM HELPING OUT. TERRY CARTER'S LAWYER SUING THE HELL OUT OF EDC PLAYERS.

Terry Carter. Head of Chamber of Commerce. Carter wants to service small business. Too much emphasis on Crosstowns Common Project. The fire started there.
It's like organized corporations and benefits all. EDC plotted to get out of regular chamber. Patrick Birmingham, Fulton, James Barnett, John Bell (lawyer).

We talked about Lencho last time. Now EDC, 90% of entity of City is controlled by EDC except Nueces County and Terry Carter. County is Solomon/Lencho group.

This shows you how everything operates. Cottage industry. Why is City, port, Hisp Chamber, and Chamber of Commerce. Inside info where business will locate. Many people think that those who join Del Mar Board of Regents out of goodness of their heart. Yeah, sure. There is a business interest. Cottage industry, join boards, get info, everytime bond election or referendum to build something, Barry, Fulton, ABC-Al Jones and Mike Carrell Frost Bank. People think they are good samaratans. Yeah, right.

Whataburger field loses half a million a year. Port containment losing money- Ortiz International Center losing money. Follow money. Bonilla part of EDC and Mike Carrell. You see the power, how they move from organization to organization. They make money from construction: Fulton walked out of regular chamber. Joe Adame, this man is in with the builders. The inside information is gotten by joining boards. EDC Joe Adame that had inside info, purchase land, encourage city council to raise property values overnight. Buy land for 40,000.00 and presto chango they make it worth 300,000.00. They are not here to make Corpus Christi grow. B.S. like "Corpus Christi Grow", run by errand boys and girls Carol Scott, John Longoria, lieutenants or messengers of EDC, and Mayor Garrett.

THE EDC TRYING TO DISCREDIT AND PUNISH TERRY CARTER FOR EXPOSING THEM AS CROOKS: Criticism about Terry Carter? Please. Look at cost overrun and rape of taxpayer dollars by EDC and the same self-serving people. Look at the FULTON corridor. Sylvia Whitmore and Judy Hawley who sit on port and Judy works for Carrell and Frost Bank. Why doesn't she have a problem with Carrell and the city council violating rules. No problems with Joe Fulton cost overruns and extra money. Overbid and ask for more money. Average guy doesn't understand the power network. Sylvia Whitmore should be ashamed of herself. They benefit, Hawley is a co-conspirator. Same bank, same builders, same players. The entity of Sylvia Whitmore awarded contract to handle account for American Bank Center. The bank that deals with all the taxpayer dollars.

1/8 cent tax? Referendum on this. Remember? To pay for projects. Apparaently 4A Board(all the money from bonds and referendums, money they collect, from the public). Guess who handles the cash? Syvia Whitmore, the same person who filed a complaint against Terry Carter. Look how well Whitmore is connected with EDC.

They made it a big issue that accounting measures weren't that rigorous in chamber. The way we understand it Carter did nothing wrong. But Whitmore has plenty of dirty laundry and covering for this same conspiracy to rob the taxpayers between the EDC, the banks and the builders.

The 4A Board that collects money to pay for projects. The 1/8 cent tax is just one example. Whitmore, is making a big stink. Yet her boss Mike Carrell head of Frost was appointed to Port 9 months before they should have done it. They circumvented the process, months before guys like councilman Hummell came on. Ruben Bonilla needed that 4th vote, Mayor Garrett initiated the appointment. It was clearly improper and they bypassed the process. Yet, here Terry Carter, had to keep the books at the chamber in the black. He got it out of the red when he came on. The big business that channeled money leave at same time and took money with them. Whitmore is trying to make it look criminal. It's not. No money is missing. It was just moved around in the organization, not outside. The irregularity was the accounting procedure. But he did not misappropriate funds. The City Council is the EDC's puppets.

The key thing with Terry Carter: When the big organizations left , they left a tight budget. He had to look for ways as executive directive to keep in black. He reallocated funds or line item. This pullout was a set up and payback by EDC. The EDC pulled out to make Carter look like a criminal and roll out the media. Birmingham, publisher of CALLER TIMES is targeting Carter. He runs the Caller Times. He has blasted him with editorials. Where is the blasting of Mike Carrell and the Fulton cost overruns? Ruben Bonilla's running the port into the ground.

A petition was filed. Whistleblower Damian Brantley (tool for EDC) (owner of Utopia-connected with EDC, involved in the Celis issue-his girlfriend was naked woman-name never mentioned that he was not in car with Mauricio. He never cleared Celis or clarified all of this. Birmingham from Caller Times covered up for him. He could have cleared Celis and explained about the badge and the naked girlfriend but chose not to) fellow of the Chamber looked into accounting.

Nelda Martinez tied in with EDC. Board of American Bank. Why do people run for the schoolboard? Millions at stake. John Longoria, Carol Scott. They run to the construction subcommittee of the school board, not the curriculum. Wasn't their purpose to serve the children?. Wrong. They are going after the money. Follow the money, people. They control the insurance for the school. Patrick Birmingham tried to make a stink when he left chamber but it did not make the big splash.

Orchestration of withdrawal of corporate citizens, to remove the money, to make Carter have to move some money around but not steal it, so than Mike Carrol's puppet Whitmore and Damian Brantley blew the whistle to benefit EDC. Call for an audit, set up Carter, all to curry favor with EDC. Carter, had to amend on the budget to reallocate money, not try to steal anything. Many entities do line itemization.

Look at Damian Brantley, Carol Scott; they are the messengers/lieutenants. They serve their EDC masters: Al Jones, Mike Carrell, Fulton Construction and Ruben Bonilla.

COTTAGE INDUSTRY: USE FEDERAL AND STATE FUNDS TO LINE THEIR POCKETS. LENCHO IS not innocent. He is replicating it on a grander scale. Using Solomon's name, the port and they are trying to get the taxpayer money.

TAXPAYERS LOSE, BOTH EDC, ORTIZ/RENDON ALL SCREW THE TAXPAYER. This is the power structure and organized legal mafia that hurts the taxpayer. They create nothing. They do not help the community. Everyone on boards to make money, lobby people coming into town to line their pockets. Not serve the community.

Terry Carter is targeted because he stood up and said that all these guys are crooks. EDC are crooks. That is why Birmingham and Caller Times need to be sued, Mike Carrell, James Barnett, Dodd, Fulton. All the players on EDC.

Who takes turns : Two banks, two construction firms, two insurance companies, and so on so they pass the baton and try to avoid suspicion.

All these people create nothing. If it's the Solomonistas and the EDC make money. All this downtown land to benefit Dusty Durrell., use city dollars to build roads for their projects, new Harbor bridge? NOTHING WRONG WITH MAKING MONEY BUT IN THIS CASE THE INTEREST IS NOT THE COMMUNITY BUT SCREWING THE TAXPAYER. THERE REALLY IS NO GROWTH, ITS TAXPAYERS AND OUR CHILDREN FOOTING THE BILL BUT AL JONES, JOE FULTON AND EVERYONE IS PAYING FOR IT YET THEIR PROJECTS NEVER MAKE MONEY.

No one has pointed it out. Why does Patrick Birmingham not report this in the Caller Times? His part of this RICO like organization.

LENCHO VS EDC: If Mike Carrell hadn't entered Ruben Bonilla would not have maintained control. It was trickery. They didn't wait 9 months. The previous council appointed Carrell as bylaws demand. Regular audit of bylaws? Hello?

The port is barely making money. They make it like Ruben Bonilla is doing a good job. The port is channeling money, they brought in container projects and it's a failure. The Ortiz Center losing money. Yet the people on the Board are making money, Bill Dodge, insurance companies. Bonilla is looking for other ways to make money on this. Ruben Bonilla is barely keeping the thing going with a thready pulse. They never include the small businessman.

EDC SAYS WE DON'T HAVE TO WORK WITH SMALL BUSINESS. But they use LULAC, Nancy Vera's to divide and conquer and that's why they dominate. They throw these organizations a few tacos and they are happy.

Look at Democratic party: Tejano, Nueces County Democrats,….so splintered and divided and blind to all of the above. All these Mexican Americans fight ourselves and these people make a ton of money. People are loyal to their little Democratic faction, not the people, not the community. Just their little turf.

Lencho group: Cottage industry: Making money off taxpayers. Keep that in mind. Using federal and state funds to make themselves wealthy. Lencho is China again? Why? Follow the money. The Lencho people are for themselves. Inner circle. Screw the community. THIS IS WHY WE NEED TO CHANGE. WE NEED OPPORTUNITIES FOR OUR CHILDREN. FOR SMALL BUSINESS. WE MUST IDENTIFY HOW THESE THINGS WORK. DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT. LOOK IT UP. QUESTION. CHALLENGE PATRICK BIRMINGHAM AND WHY HE IS NOT BALANCED AND HAS THE BIGGEST PAPER IN THE COASTAL BEND YET COVERS FOR THESE PEOPLE.

Remember the power structure. WE are impartial just saying that neither EDC or Lencho is any good in the long run for the community.

THE LAWSUIT OF TERRY CARTER: IF THE LEGAL TEAM FOR CARTER IS SMART THEY WILL USE THE LAWSUIT TO DISCOVER ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS BUT WHISPERS ARE THAT THEY WILL TRY TO PROTECT ONE HALF OF THE PROBLEM: THE SOLOMONISTAS. Making this public could be a great service IF ALL OF THE TRUTH COMES OUT.

Let's look at the human social psychology of all of this: The crisis has occurred. Terry Carter a target. They run to the paper. People want things in order and perspective but Birmingham does a spin on it to help the EDC and crush Carter and make him look borderline criminal. When you understand the power, and Birmingham not being balanced as a media powerbroker should it is a disservice to the readers of the Caller Times. The poor people in the Coastal Bend believe the crap Birmingham spins to make the EDC look like angels, the Solomonistas like devils and the Terry Carter whistleblowers like criminals. NO MORE.

RISE UP AND BECOME AWARE AND LET EVERY TAXPAYER KNOW ABOUT THESE GUYS AND HOW THEY PROFIT OFF THE TAXPAYERS. THEY ARE NOT HERE TO HELP THE COMMUNITY.

MORE TO COME.

A total of $507,500! Lawsuits against DMC by two former College employees and a student were settled out of court

2008-03-28T02:47:00.001-07:00

Lawsuits against DMC by two former College employees and a student were settled out of court, for a total of $507,500.

Theresa Cox, former dean of Equal Opportunity/Affirmitive Action, Equity, Access and Compliance was awarded $450,000 after suing the college for wrongful termination, demotion, retaliation, and change in work assignments, according to the suit.

In another settlement stemming from a joint lawsuit against the college, citing civil rights violations, former student Melody Lopez received $7,500 and Alberto Benitez, former criminal justice instructor, received $50,000.

"Upon the advice and recommendation of the College's outside litigation counsel and its risk pool carrier, the lawsuits filed by former student Melody Lopez and former employee Theresa Cox were settled out of court to avoid additional expense and disruption of College business," Auggie Rivera, Counsel to the BOR, said.

An ongoing battle between Cox and former DMC President Carlos Garcia dating back to 2004 resulted in her suit against the College.

In September 2004, as part of her job assignment, Cox took a report from a student, accusing Garcia of sexual harassment. After learning of the report, Garcia protested, according to Cox's original lawsuit petition.

According to the suit, Cox charged Garcia with making unwelcome advances and sexual comments to her and other female staff at the school and of having a sexual affiliation with at least one other DMC staff member.

According to the suit, Cox was then removed from her position, being demoted from dean to director, which resulted in Cox no longer being authorized to process then-student Melody Lopez' grievance.

According to the suit, Garcia also expelled Lopez and ordered Cox to quit investigating the grievance since the accuser (Lopez) was no longer a student.

The Office of Civil Rights (OCR) of the U.S. Department of Education, the agency investigating a complaint by the same student and a faculty member, then contacted Cox, according to the suit. The faculty member who had filed a suit also accused Garcia of retaliating against him for helping Lopez with her complaint.

In February 2006 according to the suit, Cox filed a grievance with the college in reference to Garcia's supposed harassment and retaliation.

In April, four days after Cox informed the college that she had filed a complaint with the OCR against Garcia and the college, Garcia informed Cox that her employment contract would not be renewed the next school year, according to the suit.

The grievance was finalized in July when a firm appointed by the College to carry out an in-house investigation presented its results to the DMC Board of Regents.

In August, Garcia sent an e-mail to all employees with e-mail at the college acknowledging that he was not going to renew Cox's employment contract, citing "incompetence, insubordination, and unprofessional conduct." He added that the allegations against him "never happened" and that Cox was "attempting to fleece the taxpayers of Corpus Christi while discrediting DMC."

According to court documents, Cox requested compensatory damages, injunctive relief, court costs, attorney fees, reinstatement to her former position or an equivalent one, compensation for lost wages, and reinstatement of fringe benefits and seniority rights.

Another lengthy sequence of events beginning in 2003 concluded with the resolution of the joint suit by Lopez and Benitez against DMC.

According to Foghorn archives, in February of that year, Lopez filed her initial complaint against Stonewall Van Wie, then chair of the Legal Professions Department, charging his secretary, Karen Huegler, with discrimination.

In April, according to the archives, a Student Review Board heard the Lopez complaint against Van Wie.

According to the archives, in October Lopez was expelled from the College.

Earlier in July, according to the archives, Benitez filed a grievance accusing Dr. Anne Matula, former dean of the Business and Career Programs Division, of sexual harassment.

In August, Benitez was shot at his house in Ricardo, and Benitez told the college he would be unable to come to the campus to work, according to the archives.

In October 2005, according to the archives, Benitez was suspended without pay and a committee of faculty members was selected to evaluate his discharge after Benitez requested a hearing on his suspension.

According to the archives, in January 2005, the committee ruled in support of Benitez' discharge.

According to the archives, a preliminary hearing was held in Judge Hayden Head's ___th District Court concerning the Benitez and Lopez suits against the DMC. The complainants charged the college with "defying civil liberties" after allegedly not following through with Lopez's grievances and terminating Benitez without due course.

According to the archives, during that first hearing, Head learned that it took 18 months for DMC to process Lopez's 11 separate grievances against different DMC administrators, that Lopez was expelled after she verbally abused an administrator and never apologized and that Benitez felt he was unjustly fired after he was shot in 2003 because he could no longer come to work.

After hearing the evidence, the judge said that the trial would be lengthy, complex, and expensive.

Rivera was unavailable for further comment late last week due to illness.

BND consultants facing prison time

Couple pleaded guilty to conspiracy charges

BY EMMA PEREZ-TREVIÑO
The Brownsville Herald

Consultants who took Brownsville Navigation District officials to China and paid U.S. Rep. Solomon P. Ortiz's travels to the Far East are facing possible prison time after recently pleading guilty to an immigration plot involving Chinese nationals.

Sixty-four-year-old Kenneth D. Cohen, a Houston businessman and board member of the Marine Military Academy in Harlingen, and his wife, Ping Lee Cohen, 54, pleaded guilty in February to conspiracy to defraud the U.S. government in federal court in Houston.

"Mr. Ortiz was deeply disappointed that Ken and Ping broke the law, and the judge will decide the price they pay for that," Ortiz's spokeswoman, Cathy Travis, said Friday.

BND Deputy Director Donna Eymard said she was surprised to find out about the conviction.

"They were very professional people," she said. "They always did a fine job for us,"

In a statement released earlier this year, U.S. Attorney Chuck Rosenberg said between April 2000 and October 2005, the Cohens contacted Chinese citizens who paid up to $120,000 to enter the United States and ultimately obtain citizenship.

The Cohens would bring in Chinese citizens under the false pretenses of attending business seminars or conducting business negotiations.

Rosenberg said the Cohens would recruit the owners of small U.S. companies to offer jobs to Chinese citizens. This allowed the Chinese citizens to obtain employment-based visas to enter the country and remain here on a business visa.

"The defendants then created an illusory relationship between Chinese companies and U.S. companies by submitting forged stock certificates, stock transfer ledgers and financial records in support of petitions to the former Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), which were then filed with the Immigration Service on behalf of their clients," Rosenberg stated.

The Cohens would use a law office to petition the INS for the Chinese citizens to enter and remain in the U.S. as executive-level employees of the various U.S. businesses.

"The affected U.S. business owners confirmed that the supporting documents had been forged, that they never employed the Chinese citizens and that their companies were never wholly or partially owned by the Chinese companies as required to obtain this class of visa," Rosenberg said.

The Cohens face up to five years in prison and $250,000 in fines. They will be sentenced later this fall.

Doing Business with BND

The Cohens have numerous corporations, a review of public records show, but in Brownsville, they were known to BND as Asia Access Corp.

Eymard started working for BND in 2000. Present board member Roy de los Santos was already on the BND board as was former board member Carl "Joe" Gayman. Former board member Sidney Lasseigne was getting ready to join the board.

The late Raul Besteiro was BND's chief executive officer.

BND's first payment to the Cohens' corporation was in March 2001 in the amount of $20,000 for "consulting fees," public records show.

By November 2002, BND had paid Asia Access $91,108. Of this amount, records indicate that $15,510 was reimbursement for a stay at the Hotel Beijing, $80 for visas to China and $5,980 for airfare to Ningbo-Hong Kong in 2001.

BND paid Asia Access a service fee of $5,000 in 2001 for a trip to China and paid the firm a consulting fee of $40,000 in July 2002.

BND officials made three trips to China between 2000 and 2003.

"I know they arranged all the Far East trips, but how they came here, I could not begin to tell you. I don't know," Eymard said.

De Los Santos said he also didn't know.

Gayman said Ping Lee Cohen was BND's tour guide in China and arranged meetings with Chinese officials and companies.

"They would arrange the trips and work out the itinerary. I never did see anything suspicious," de los Santos said.

"From the minute we arrived, all the meetings were set up," Eymard recalled.

Getting Close to a Congressman

Travis said that Ortiz, D-Corpus Christi, has known the Cohens for more than a decade and became acquainted with them through mutual friends.

Travis said she doesn't know if Ortiz or any member of his staff introduced the Cohens to BND and left the question to BND.

Gayman thinks Ortiz brought the Cohens to BND: "The congressman is the one that instigated the trips to China," Gayman said.

Lasseigne recalled that Ortiz, his former chief of staff Lencho Rendon and Besteiro were close to the Cohens to "Madam Ping," Ping Lee Cohen.

"She was very attractive, very, very, attractive, real sharp in business," Lasseigne said of Ping Lee Cohen.

"I remember Lencho telling me that his ideal dream team (to help BND) would be (lobbyist) Randy DeLay, (Monterrey consult-ant) Esther Rodriguez and 'Madam Ping,'" Lasseigne said.

The BND present and former officials said that to their knowledge, BND never assisted Chinese nationals in obtaining visas.

Asia Access also figures prominently in trips that Ortiz and Rendon made to the Far East, including China, Hong Kong, Taipei and Beijing.

The firm paid for four trips, a study by the Washington, D.C.-based nonprofit organization, the Center for Public Integrity shows.

The organization recently tracked the travel of U.S. representatives and senators.

The trips were made at Asia Access' expense by Ortiz and Rendon in 2000, 2003, 2004 and 2005 at a reported cost of nearly $48,000 combined.

Travis said Ortiz accepted the trips because he searches for ways to increase development in South Texas.

"One way to leverage that development has been to travel to Asia with South Texas business owners," Travis said. "His presence with area businesses in the vibrant, dynamic Asian marketplace ensures their access to the decision makers at Asian companies, as well as to government offices there."

And no, Travis said, neither Ortiz nor any staff member has facilitated the entry of Chinese nationals into the country.

Neither BND trips nor Ortiz's trips have resulted in economic development here, Gayman said.

"We never got any business out of China," Gayman added.

Perry Appointee to UT Regents Linked to Scandals

posted by Paul Burka at 10:52 AM

One of the three men Governor Perry appointed to the University of Texas Board of Regents last week has been linked to political scandals at opposite ends of the Rio Grande, according to several news outlets. The appointee is James Dannenbaum, chairman of Houston-based Dannenbaum Engineering Corporation, whose company has become enmeshed in corruption probes in Brownsville and El Paso.

The following summary of the situation in Brownsville represents my summary of stories done by investigative reporter Emma Perez-Trevino for the Brownsville Herald. The original stories can be found here and here. In the Brownsville case, the Port of Brownsville wanted to work with Mexico to build a bi-national bridge to Matamoros, Mexico. Brown & Root won the contract to work on the bridge and billed the Brownsville Navigation District (BND) $424,505 up through July 1997. That's when a familiar name entered the picture: state senator Eddie Lucio. The Brownsville Herald has reported that Dannenbaum Engineering Corporation (DEC) hired Lucio for marketing, consulting, and public relations work. In the course of this work, Lucio introduced the firm to the BND board. Within a month, the BND board voted to fire Brown & Root and hired DEC without requesting proposals. DEC's original contract was for $2,053,515, but a series of supplemental contracts brought DEC's take to $15.5 million. Of this money, $10,529,058 went to subcontractors in Mexico, $9.2 million of which was paid to just three companies, all of which had ties to a DEC employee. One helps startup businesses, one provides security services, and one is a real estate company. BND was required to approve all subcontracts before any work was done, but DEC entered into 16 of 17 subcontracts without requesting that approval.

Construction of the bridge depended upon securing an agreement with Mexico to perform work on its side of the Rio Grande, which DEC representatives said was forthcoming. Despite such assurances, BND never received approval from Mexico. This is not a bridge to nowhere. It is a nowhere bridge.

In 2004, BND retained Charley Willette, Jr., as a special counsel to investigate how a total of $21.4 million in taxpayer money was spent on a project that was dependent upon Mexico's support. Willete's 62-page report traced the millions paid to subcontractors in Mexico and their ties back to DEC.

Peter Zavaletta, who became chairman of the Navigation District in 2004, told the Brownsville Herald that the only work that BND received was 49 black binders in which were a couple of charts.

Perez-Trevino reported in May that a criminal inquiry into the money that was spent on the nonexistent bridge is in the hands of a special grand jury, whose term will expire in early November. Both the FBI and the Texas Rangers began looking into the situation last March.

The El Paso situation is less complex. A United Press International story last June referenced "Dannenbaum Construction" in a wide ranging federal probe in El Paso:

EL PASO, Texas, June 13 (UPI) -- A Texas man once named by President George Bush to the International Boundary and Water Commission has been labeled a "bagman" in a corruption case.

John Travis Ketner, former chief of staff to El Paso County Judge Anthony Cobos, pleaded guilty Friday to conspiracy to commit bribery. Arturo Duran, who also is a member of the board of Thomason Hospital in El Paso, was identified as one of 17 co-conspirators in the case, the El Paso Times reported.

Federal investigators say Duran served as a go-between for two companies, Valley Risk Consulting and Dannenbaum Construction. The companies were after contracts from County Commissioners Court.

In a story about the El Paso investigation that appeared in the Herald, Perez-Trevino reported about Dannenbaum's role in the federal investigation in El Paso. These are the salient paragraphs:

In El Paso, Dannenbaum's firm allegedly is referenced as "DC" in an information report that the U.S. Attorney's Office filed in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas on a guilty plea entered by John Travis Ketner, former chief of staff to El Paso County Judge Anthony Cobos.

Ketner pleaded guilty June 8 to two counts of conspiracy to commit mail fraud, one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, and one count of conspiracy to commit bribery in connection with his role in a conspiracy to fraudulently secure vendor contracts, public records show.

The El Paso Times identified "DC" as "Dannenbaum Construction" of Houston.

Noting that the name of his firm is Dannenbaum Engineering and not Dannenbaum Construction, Dannenbaum said, "our firm was not named in anything, was not referenced in anything."

According to the information report, Ketner and co-conspirators would meet with selected vendors to discuss the contracts being sought by the vendors and to settle on the amount of a bribe.

A co-conspirator allegedly acted as the intermediary and "bag man" for "DC," making and promising payments in cash or as campaign contributions to elected county officials, the information report reflects.

The report shows that on one occasion, a "DC" principal met with a county elected official. The intermediary and the elected official then entered a small bathroom in the county office and the intermediary promised a campaign contribution in exchange for the official's votes to secure contracts for "DC".

Dannenbaum said that he did not have an intermediary, did not meet with the elected official and that no one from his office did. "Not to my knowledge," he said.

The question that naturally arises out of all this is what is going on in the governor's office? It seems to me there are only two possibilities here: Perry (1) didn't know or (2) didn't care. Even if he believes that Dannenbaum and his company have done nothing wrong (and to this point nothing official suggests otherwise), Perry has put UT in a position where one of his appointees can reflect discredit on the university. There are plenty of Texans who aren't enmeshed in criminal investigations in two cities who are qualified to be on the Board of Regents.

The other question is whether ethics rules--allow a state senator to operate a consulting business in which he introduces vendors to public officials who award contracts. I don't see how the answer can be "yes," but if it is, the rules need to change. I don't think Lucio is the only one who plays this game.

Dear Ricardo Sanchez, Roland Barrera, Esteemed RTA Board Members, CCREDC Executives, Nueces Cnty Commissioners Court & All American City Council

Dear Ricardo Sanchez, Roland Barrera, Esteemed RTA Board Members,CCREDC Executives /Members Nueces County Commissioners Court and our All American City Council.

It is inconceivable in the eyes of a little person (who labors under a heavy burden daily) that we would appoint or place individuals in positions where merit is is non-existent. The Rendon family is well represented on the RTA Board.

According to the Caller Times Article written by Jaime Powell, There also could be a third Rendon family member on the RTA board in the near future.

Furthermore, in reviewing the minutes of various RTA meetings, the name Joseph Ramirez alludes discovery. What has this individual accomplished benefiting the RTA? It is with great emphasis we recognize individuals who are meritorious, individuals who are already involved / dedicated to the RTA. You guys are very aware of who the meritorious ones are. Certainly, it is a disservice to dedication for an individual to assume such a position without earning it first.

This appointment is one of ignorance (in that it iignores the citizenry) and without question unrepresentative of Nueces County. The Rendon Family shares not with it's community; but profiteers off of it. Questionable integrity, investigation and the proximity to scandal is WATT we (the RTA) get with the unsavory appointment of the Nephew (mouthpiece) of Florencio Rendon.

Turning to other Boards within the various Political Subdivisions of Nueces County, I will point to the DMC Regents and the election of one regent (whose family member was an employee) forcing the choice of one (of the two) resigning. The employee stepped away.

Another issue with the RTA appointment process as well as most appointments is the secrecy of the process. We need to know about the available positions before we can apply. Why is the marketing non existent? Vacancies are not communicated to the average citizen and it is only confirmation of the reliance on the disengagement of the average citizen in the formulation of public policy. Why does the public have to become research experts to be informed on important issues such as this?

We at Kenedeno & Associates specialize in the "engagement of the average citizen in the formulation of public policy".

We bring the public to your doorstep.

Also, in the interest of the City of Corpus Christi, we are recommending an in depth study regarding the deterioration (to the right lane) of all city streets implemented in daily bus routes. Specifically, we are referring to the patch repair of certain areas where the climate coupled with asphalt design and exceeded load capacity from RTA Machinery has taken a heavy toll.

Your efforts and your continued integrity is applauded, respected and often taken for granted.

Thank You

THE REAL POLITICAL PULSE: THE POWER STRUGGLE BETWEEN LENCHO VERSUS THE EDC

HOW THINGS WORK. LET'S BREAK THIS VERY COMPLEX BEAST OF THE EDC (POWER GROUP A) AND LENCHO (POWER GROUP B) AND THE STRUGGLE FOR POWER IN NUECES COUNTY FOR ALL OF US TO UNDERSTAND. UNDERSTAND THE PLAYERS AND THE POWER STRUCTURE. WE NEED TO KNOW THE SET UP AND WHY THINGS HAPPEN HERE IN TOWN.
CONNECTIONS: EDC, HUGO BERLANGA, RUBEN BONILLA. THE ENEMIES TO EDC: LENCHO RENDON TRYING TO UNDERMINE EDC. LENCHO AND KAELIN REAL CLOSE. WILLIE VADEN AND LENCHO RENDON RUNNING PIPELINE FROM MEXICO TO U.S. LENCHO WHEELING AND DEALING WITH REPUBLICANS.LENCHO THE STAUNCH DEMOCRAT! WILLIE JUST HIRED HIM IN INGLESIDE. WHAT'S GOING ON? LENCHO IS TRYING TO CONTROL THE PORT. THE PORT COMMISSION IS NEEDED FOR SHAMSIE TO REPLACE ONE OF THE PORT MEMBERS. THE EDC HAS THE MIKE CARROLL ISSUE TO CONTEND WITH. THERE ARE 7 MEMBERS: 4 CONTROLLED EDC AND 3 BY LENCHO AND SOLOMONISTAS. THEY ARE GOING AFTER MONEY, OF COURSE. LENCHO CONTROLLING COUNTY. OSCAR ORTIZ IS PRETTY MUCH COUNTY JUDGE AND SHAMSIE IS STILL PULLING STRINGS ON THE COMMISSIONERS COURT. BUT AS FAR AS THE PORT RUBEN BONILLA, JUDY HAWLEY(?), MIKE CARELL (HEAD OF FROST BANK AND MEMBER OF EDC WAS MOVED OVER TO THE PORT), AND THE ELDERLY ANGLO GENTLEMAN WHO'S NAME ESCAPES ME IS APPOINTED BY THE CITY. AN APPOINTMENT IS PENDING AT THE END OF THIS YEAR. THE CONTROVERSY IS THAT MIKE CARROLL (HENRY GARRETT APPOINTED MIKE CARROLL PRIOR TO THE ELECTION ON THE CITY COUNCIL). EDC FEARED THE BALANCE OF POWER WOULD HAVE BEEN AFFECTED. NOW, THE OTHER PEOPLE OF LENCHO, YOLANDO OLIVAREZ (SOLOMON ORTIZ HELPS HER WITH CONTRACTS), KEN BERRY, BOBBY GONZALEZ. LOOKS LIKE BOBBY GONZALEZ WILL BE REAPPOINTED. YOLANDA WILL LEAVE SO THEY ARE TRYING TO PUT SHAMSIE (HE HAS JUST PUT IN AN APPLICATION). KEEP IN MIND THAT RENE RODRIGUEZ HAS SUBMITTED AN APPLICATION. THE OTHER ISSUE IS THAT SHAMSIE IS WANTED ON THERE BECAUSE HE IS WITH LENCHO. NOW, OSCAR ORTIZ CONTROLS PEGGY BANALES AND BETTY JEAN. ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COMMISSIONERS COURT YOU HAVE CAZALES AND NEIL. BUT STRANGELY CAZALES HAS BEEN VOTING WITH ORTIZ. MIKE HUMMELL ON THE CITY COUNCIL SIDE IS FRIENDLY WITH LENCHO SO THEY WILL TRY TO GET ANOTHER MEMBER ON THE PORT APPOINTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL AND THE REASON THE PEGGY BANALES RACE WAS SO IMPORTANT WAS TO GET THE PORT. NOW, LETS LOOK AT THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE: TERRY CARTER IS RUMORED TO HAVE HIS DAYS NUMBERED ON THERE. EDC CONTROLS PORT NOW BUT LENCHO IS PUSHING TO CONTROL THE PORT. THE MAIN ENGINE THAT CONTROLS THE ECONOMY IS THE PORT SO THAT IS WHY SHAMSIE AND LENCHO COVET IT. HUERTA CONNECTION: HUERTA IS TIED IN WITH MIKAL WATTS. THEY SIT ON SEVERAL BOARDS THAT THE EDC CONTROLS. MIKAL WATTS IS IN THERE. WHAT REMAINS UNCLEAR IS WHETHER LENCHO HAS ALLIANCES WITH WATTS.
BONILLA CONNECTION: BY RUBEN BONILLA GETTING HALF A MILLION FROM ONE, A QUARTER OF MILLION FOR FEES OF CITY ENTITIES FOR LEGAL FEES (FED TO SHAMSIE AND RENE RODRIGUEZ BACK WHEN TERRY SHAMSIE RAN). THAT IS WHY RUBEN BONILLA AND SHAMSIE NOT ON FRIENDLY TERMS BECAUSE RUBEN WAS RAKING IT IN. WHEN SHAMSIE CAME IN AS COUNTY JUDGE HE WAS IDEALISTIC AND WAS LOOKING AT THE FUNDS AND MONEY. RUBEN BONILLA MAKING OVER A MILLION FOR REPRESENTING SEVERAL ENTITIES.
NOW EDC AND RENDON/SHAMSIE FACTION: BOTH GROUPS ARE EXCLUSIVE.
LENCHO GROUP IS SO CLOSEKNIT. THE GROUP DYNAMICS IS THAT THEY ARE NOT INCLUSIVE. THE CIRCLE IS TIGHT. WHEN HILLARY CAME IT WAS EVIDENT. THEY CONTROLLED THE MEDIA WHICH ANGERED THE MAINSTREAM. IN THE LENCHO CIRCLE MIKE RENDON AND SARAH SALDIVAR (WHO WORKED WITH SOLOMONS DAUGHTER) ARE A PART OF THE GROUP. THE BROTHER IN LAW DAVID MARTINEZ IS IN RTA, NOW SARAH LEAVING SO JOSEPH RAMIREZ IS ENTERING RTA. WHO APPOINTS THE RTA PEOPLE? THE MAYOR OF ROBSTOWN THROUGH THE SMALL APPOINTMENTS COMMITTEE. NOW DO WE UNDERSTAND HOW THE COMMUNITY CAN GROW WITH THIS OLIGARCHY? IT IS TOO EXCLUSIVE. THEY DON'T SHARE THE WEALTH WITH ANYONE. SHAMSIE IS TIED IN WITH ALL THESE BIG DOLLARS, CONSULTANT WITH THE CITY OF ROBSTOWN, THE SCHOOL BOARD BUDGET OF ROBSTOWN.THE SHAMSIES AND LENCHOS DO THE PATH OF PAST RESISTANCE. SHAMSIE FIRST LATCHED ON TO FIL VELA, THEN RENE RODRIGUEZ, NOW LENCHO. SHAMSIE TRIED TO BE VERY ACCOMMODATING WITH EDC BUT THEY REJECTED HIM SO THAT IS WHY HE STARTED AWARDING THINGS TO DOS LOGISTICS AND OMEGA TO CURRY FAVOR WITH LENCHO AND NOW IS TRYING TO HELP MORE OF LENCHOS COMPANIES WHICH IS THE NEW ONE LR GLOBAL AND ASSOCIATES. REMEMBER THAT LENCHO YOU NEVER SEE HIM MUCH IN PUBLIC. RECENTLY HE HAD A SEMINAR CALLED OCEAN SECURITY CONFERNCE WITH 34 COUNTRIES AND BROUGHT IN MILITARY PEOPLE AND THERE ARE DOLLARS BEING PUT OUT BY THE GOVERNMENT. SOLOMON SITS ON COMMITTEE TO AWARD MONIES THROUGH CONTRACTS. BY BEING RETIRED MANY OF THESE GENERAL AVOID BEING CONFLICTED. THE GENERALS USE THEIR INFLUENCE TO INFLUENCE THE PRESENT MILITARY PEOPLE WHO REPLACES THEM AND LENCHO FINDS A WAY TO PAY THE RETIRED GENERALS AS CONSULTANTS. HE MADE IT LOOK LIKE HE BROKE UP WIHT SOLOMON IN 2006 BUT IT WAS TRULY TO AVOID THE CONFLICT. THAT IS WHY HE IS USING HIS NEPHEW JOSEPH...TO AVOID CONFLICTS. SHAMSIE: AS COUNTY JUDGE HE WAS IDEALISTIC AND THEN BECAME REALISTIC AFTER THE EDC REJECTION. HE SAID, PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE BUT HE WENT WITH LENCHO. HE IS LIKE A WILLOW. HE HAS THAT CLASSIC BEHAVIOR AND GIVE IN AND DIVIDE AND CONQUER INSTEAD OF CREATE. THAT IS WHY HE JOINED WITH LENCHO IN ORDER TO BE WITH SOMEONE STRONG. HE ACTS LIKE A DEMOCRAT BUT PRACTICALLY BEGGED TO BE WITH EDC AND THE WHITES BUT AGAIN, THEY SPURNED HIM. DOS LOGISTICS MADE MILLIONS. THEY BOUGHT SHAMSIE A HOUSE. HMMM. THINK ABOUT IT. DID HE ACCEPT GIFTS LIKE THIS WHILE IN OFFICE? NOW YOU ARE SEEING THE PAYBACK THEY OWE SHAMSIE. LR GLOBAL OPERATES LIKE PART MARKETING PART BUSINESS (CONSTRUCTION, PUBLIC RELATIONS ETC). PARTICULARLY FOR MILITARY CONTRACTS. THEY ARE BRINGING IN SHAMSIE AS A CONSULTANT. THEY ARE CLEVER. SHAMSIE IS BEING PAID BY ENTITIES. THINK OF SOLOMON ORTIZ WHEN HE WAS YOUNG, GETS OUT OF ARMY, RUNS FOR CONTSTABLE, COMMISSIONER, SHERIFF, AND EVERY SINGLE PUBLIC POST IS ALWAYS PAYING MONEY. THEY NEVER HAVE SERVED ON SCHOOL BOARDS, CITY COUNCIL. THEIR WHOLE MENTALITY IS TO PIMP OFF SYSTEM. SAME WITH LENCHO. HE DOESNT HAVE TO PAY SHAMSIE, THE CITY AND SCHOOL BOARD OF ROBSTOWN FUNNELS MONEY. ROD RAMON AND ABEL HERRERO ARE A PART OF THE CLICK. NOW GRANTED, WE ARE ALL TRYING TO MAKE MONEY AND FEED OUR FAMILIES BUT THIS IS PIMPING OFF THE SYSTEM. THIS IS POLITICS.REMEMBER BORCHARD? HE APPOINTED TO THE PORT THE SAME BANKER WHO HIRED HIM. THE PEOPLE AT THE PORT NOW BUY THE INSURANCE IS BOUGHT WHICH BILL DODGE WAS ASSOCIATED WITH (BILL DODGE BANKER AT ROBSTOWN. SAME INSURANCE COMPANY IS BEING SUPPORTED BY LOBBYING EFFORTS OF HUGO BERLANGA AND RUBEN BONILLAS IS THE LAWYER! WHAT A RACKET!CONSULTANTS EVERYWHERE.
NOW EDC: PRIMARILY ANGLOS BUT CURIOUSLY MORE PLURALISTIC. THEY SHARE MORE OF THE WEALTH. THEY ARE MORE SOPHISTICATED AND NOT SO HEAVY HANDED AND PROJECT HIGHER STANDARDS. AL JONES, MIKE CARROLL, JOE FULTON, BERRY CONSTRUCTION AND ANYTHING YOU CAN THINK OF, BUT WHAT HAPPENS ITS A SMALL MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX. ALTHOUGH NOT SO TIGHTKNIT AS LENCHOS THEY ARE STILL SOMEWHAT EXCLUSIVE.THE EDC'S FORMULA IS SIMPLE. ITS A SHADOW GOVERNMENT. ROOTS GO BACK TO HAYDEN HEAD. HAYDEN HEAD WAS AN ATTORNEY. NEVER RAN FOR OFFICE. HE WAS INVOLVED WITH THE PORT. HE MADE SURE THAT CITY COUNCILMAN WERE BUSINESSMAN. WHEN THINGS WANTED TO BE DONE, HE WOULD GET PEOPLE WHO WANTED A CONTRACT, AND THE MEETINGS (LIKE THE MARKETING PLAN FORWARD CORPUS CHRISTI) AND WOULD SAY THE CONTRACTORS WOULD PAY FOR THE MARKETING, LOOK FOR CERTIFICATES OF OBLIGATION FROM THE PUBLIC (HAYDEN HEAD STARTED AMERICAN BANK IN THE 1970'S WHICH AL JONES IS THE HEAD OF NOW). A THREE PART OPERATION BEGINS: YOUR BUILDERS(THEY PROVIDE THE FINANCING FOR THE MARKETING TO SELL THE PROJECT), THE POLITICIANS LIKE MAYOR (LOOK WHO CONTRIBUTES MONEY TO THE POLITICIANS DAVID ENGOLS TO JUAN GARCIA EXAMPLE) AND THEN THE BANKS FUNDS IT (AL JONES IS THE MODERN DAY HAYDEN HEAD, FINANCED PACKERY, AMERICAN BANK CENTER, WHATABURGER FIELD).POLITICAINS SELL IT, BUILDERS MARKET IT, BANKS FINANCE IT. ON THE FOOD CHAIN POLITICIANS ARE THE LOWEST. HERE YOU HAVE THE EDC (NONPROFIT) WHICH IS A DEFACTO POLITICAL MACHINE. THEY CAN'T BE AUDITED BY THE CITY!!! THE CITY CAN'T LOOK AT THEIR BOOKS. ANOTHER THING, THE CITY GIVES THEM AUTHORITY FOR THE EDC TO DECIDE WHERE ECONOMIC GROWTH IS BEST, WHERE LAND VALUE SHOULD BE RAISED. THESE GUYS ON EDC KNOW WHERE LAND WILL RAISE VALUE, THEN THEY GO BUY THE LAND! THIS IS INSIDER TRADING. OVERNIGHT A PIECE OF CRAP LAND BECOMES GOLD. (INSIDE INFORMATION IS MORE POWERFUL THAN MONEY MY FRIENDS). THE EDC IS A POLTICAL MACHINE. WHO GETS THE CONTRACTS? 90 PERCENT OF PROJECTS, WHATABURGER FIELD AND AMERICAN BANK CENTER: JOE FULTON! MIKE CARROLL, ED MARTIN (HEAD OF BERRY CONSTRUCTION) CHANGE LEADERSHIP ROLES (DON'T CONFUSE KEN BERRY THE SOLOMONISTA WITH THE MAIN FAMILY).
CITY AND COUNTY CONSTRUCTION PROJECT DIFFERENCES. JOE FULTON WAS LATE ON PROJECT HE UNDERBID EVERYONE ON. HE SAYS "I CAN'T DO IT WITH WHAT I BID, NEED MORE MONEY(THIS IS KNOWN AS COST OVERRUN). AMERICAN BANK CENTER, WHATABURGER FIELD. HE HAS SELDOM IF EVER COMPLETED A PROJECT ON TIME AND HAS DONE COST OVERRUN BIG TOWN. THE SHADOW GOVERNMENT THEY ARE ON, THE EDC ALLOW THESE COST OVERRUNS AND THE CITY HAS NOTHING TO SAY ABOUT.CORPORATE SPONSORSHIP: APPOINT PEOPLE ON EDC BECAUSE THE CITY AND COUNTY CAN ONLY APPOINT SO MANY.LET'S LOOK AT NUMBERS. LESS THAN 1 PERCENT JOB GROWTH (WORKSOURCE) THEY GET INSIDE INFORMATION AND EVERYONE MAKES MONEY AND THE COMMUNITY RARELY BENEFITS. IF YOU DESTROY THE EDC, THEY WILL JUST BUILD ANOTHER ORGANIZATION. LOOK AT THE AMERICAN BANK CENTER BOARD AND YOU WILL SEE MANY BIG PLAYER. THE HEAD OF CCISD IS THERE. WHERE DID HE WORK? AMERICAN BANK. WHO HAS MARKETING CONTRACT: CAROL SCOTT (WIFE OF MARK SCOTT). JOHN LONGORIA: HE SITS ON ADVISORY BOARD, NELDA MARTINEZ ON CITY COUNCIL SHE SITS ON ADVISORY BOARD OF AMERICAN BANK TOO.
SAME THAT SHAMSIE AND LENCHO DO THE EDC DOES. THEY GO AFTER ENTITIES OF GOVERNMENT AND GO AFTER PUBLIC DOLLARS (WE ARE CREATING JOBS SAYS JOE FULTON IF YOU BUILD WHATABURGER WITH CERTIFICATES OF OBLIGATION? YOU CREATE NOTHING. YOU ARE PASSING ON A BILL TO FUTURE GENERATIONS. THIS IS WHAT LENCHO/SHAMSIE ARE DOING AND EDC IS DOING. LESS THAN 1 PERCENT JOB GROWTH. ALL THE TAXPAYERS MONEY WENT TO THESE PEOPLE THIS IS THE IGNORANCE OF THE TAXPAYERS OF NUECES COUNTY.
PACKERY CHANNEL: THE CITY OF CORPUS CHRISTI BORROWED 9 MILLION. HOW MUCH INTEREST DID AMERICAN BANK CHARGE IN INTEREST? 99 PERCENT INTEREST AND YOU AND I ARE PAYING FOR IT. USURY, NO LESS. IT WAS ON LOYD NEILS WATCH.
CONCLUSION: THE FLOODGATES OF OPPORTUNITY. THESE GROUPS MONOPOLIZE POWER AND HOPE. THESE PEOPLE CREATE NOTHING AND PROFIT AMONG THEMSELVES.PEOPLE OF CORPUS CHRISTI, CHECK IT OUT. DO THE RESEARCH. YOU DON'T NEED A COLLEGE DEGREE TO COMPREHEND THESE THINGS. I CARE ABOUT MY COMMUNITY AND THESE GROUPS UNDERESTIMATE THE PEOPLE IN THIS COMMUNITY AND THEY THINK WE WOULD NEVER FIGURE IT OUT. BUT WE ARE FIGURING IT OUT.

MORE TO COME. COMMENTS PLEASE.

Dear Eyes Opened,

The first thing we need to do is become informed and stay up to date on key issues such as the issues we at Los Kenedenos and El Defenzor address. We can write letters and engage our community to become invigorated in forming public opinion and a public voice. Not what I want or what you want but what all of us as a community engaged choose together.

Dear Mr. Kenedeno:

Your e-mail has opened my eyes to why Corpus Christi has no jobs and no big business investing in our community. Now I see who the dark forces are holding back our community.

I really appreciate your e-mail. I am interested in what to do about it. What do you suggest?

Sincerely,

Kenedeno Response Letter to Roland Barrera & RTA Trustees

Roland,
My Interest in the Corpus Christi Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) originates from being a patron and relying on the BUS for primary transport. After the first adventure I was impressed:

Go on an ADVENTURE take the B BUS!

Go on an ADVENTURE take the B BUS!

9/14/2005 9:37 PM

Just got off the Bus! Pretty cool ride around the City. Good People, excellent security system, GPS monitoring and audio / video monitoring. For all who claim it is a waste I beg to differ. If more of us used it (even if just to cruise around) instead of taking a ride around town in our personal vehicles maybe all would appreciate especially with the GAS GOUGING! Half a Dollar and you dont need to worry about red lights, traffic citations, road rage, or putting 10 bucks in for 3.5 gallons or 30 to 50 miles. I dont know maybe we need to make it a stylish thing to do RIDE THE BUS? They dont serve drinks or food and you cannot smoke (if you are a smoker) on the other hand you breathe no second hand smoke (if you do not smoke). It was relaxing kind of like a sightseeing tour. Nobody (in the cars below) really ever notices you in the bus either. Some very productive blind observations are always at hand (if you study people). It was a relaxing ride if you are not specifically in a hurry to get somewhere. Try it out with your kids on a Saturday. Go on an ADVENTURE take the B BUS!

We Applaud Accessible Leaders & (your) Availability to the Public "to address any issues, concerns or questions regarding the RTA"; Leadership is demonstrated & earned in one's actions (Keep on Walking the WALK) . In past conversations and in the letter at hand; great pride, dedication, passion and pleasure emanate with the confident satisfaction of a JOB well done. Your tenure of service with the Authority is indeed one of accomplishment. As far as transparent and prudent organization and a leader among its peers in the industry; closed sessions, harbored consanguinity and questionable affiliations with persons, entities and Political Agendas place the operations of the CCRTA under scrutiny in the public eye.

The e-mail was addressed to Ricardo Sanchez and Yourself (Mr Roland Barrera) out of an established relationship and understanding. Your timely response coupled with knowledge, insight and the fortitude to address the issues; demonstrate goodwill and facilitate productive solutions in our community.

In citing the award winning Caller Times report (written by Jaime Powell) regarding the potential appointment of Joseph Ramirez on the RTA board of directors:

My response:

The Caller Times is a source accepted by our community as trustworthy and reputable enough to quote without secondary corroboration. Most of the time it is what the Caller does not report that we have a problem with. If we use their material and it is inaccurate then IMO it would be demonstrative of the Caller Times' incompetency; however, it has not happened. The Caller Times is a Publication that the whole city relies on and is overall a good (positive) thing; the problem is when trusted media entities seek (and act) to control policy using deceptive tactics or withholding (suppressing) information due to Social and/or Business Relationships

In the written response correspondence (below) the following statements are made:

Your correspondence mentions the award winning Caller Times report of the potential appointment of Joseph Ramirez on the RTA board of directors. However, Mr. Ramirez was never appointed. Quite frankly, I'm not even aware if he submitted an application to any of the appointing bodies (City of Corpus Christi, Nueces County, and Small City Mayors).

Usually when we (Corpus Christians) refer to Our Award Winning Caller Times it is in discreditation or rebuke, which one were you inferring?

He was never appointed?
Come on guys, we all know we are discussing a future appointment and not something in the past where "he was never appointed".

What does "Quite Frankly" mean?

Use of such rhetoric only brings into question the position taken. Furthermore, the disclaimer (following "Quite Frankly"); is prefaced as without or lacking knowledge thereof: "if he submitted an application to any of the appointing bodies (City of Corpus Christi, Nueces County, and Small City Mayors)". We all know which appointing body and the upcoming appointment (being discussed).

Thank you for the links. As far as marketing the Board appointments; why is it, we can market a beach blockade, but we cant (dont) engage our community to become part of the solution. 20 applicants is pathetic when the ones applying and receiving are not the ones who are involved before the appointment. The process of marketing board appointments falls with the responsibility of each appointing body. As mentioned (and I concur) the RTA is a leader among its peers in the industry and as such, is positioned to aggressively market its Board Member Acquisitions (appointment process) within the community the RTA serves. Political Appointments serve not the people. If you are truly clueless to the consanguinity and affiliation affinities, my sincere apologies. For those who are unaware of such affiliations and affinities below is a simple but cogently written article. It speaks for itself. Feel free to correct any inaccuracies or discrepancies in error.

THE REAL POLITICAL PULSE: THE POWER STRUGGLE BETWEEN LENCHO VERSUS THE EDC

HOW THINGS WORK. LET'S BREAK THIS VERY COMPLEX BEAST OF THE EDC (POWER GROUP A) AND LENCHO (POWER GROUP B) AND THE STRUGGLE FOR POWER IN NUECES COUNTY FOR ALL OF US TO UNDERSTAND. UNDERSTAND THE PLAYERS AND THE POWERSTRUCTURE. WE NEED TO KNOW THE SET UP AND WHY THINGS HAPPEN HERE IN TOWN.
CONNECTIONS: EDC, HUGO BERLANGA, RUBEN BONILLA. THE ENEMIES TO EDC: LENCHO RENDON TRYING TO UNDERMINE EDC. LENCHO AND KAELIN REAL CLOSE. WILLIE VADEN AND LENCHO RENDON RUNNING PIPELINE FROM MEXICO TO U.S. LENCHO WHEELING AND DEALING WITH REPUBLICANS.LENCHO THE STAUNCH DEMOCRAT! WILLIE JUST HIRED HIM IN INGLESIDE. WHAT'S GOING ON? LENCHO IS TRYING TO CONTROL THE PORT. THE PORT COMMISSION IS NEEDED FOR SHAMSIE TO REPLACE ONE OF THE PORT MEMBERS. THE EDC HAS THE MIKE CARROLL ISSUE TO CONTEND WITH. THERE ARE 7 MEMBERS: 4 CONTROLLED EDC AND 3 BY LENCHO AND SOLOMONISTAS. THEY ARE GOING AFTER MONEY, OF COURSE. LENCHO CONTROLLING COUNTY. OSCAR ORTIZ IS PRETTY MUCH COUNTY JUDGE AND SHAMSIE IS STILL PULLING STRINGS ON THE COMMISSIONERS COURT. BUT AS FAR AS THE PORT RUBEN BONILLA, JUDY HOLLY(?), MIKE CARROLL (HEAD OF FROST BANK AND MEMBER OF EDC WAS MOVED OVER TO THE PORT), AND THE ELDERLY ANGLO GENTLEMAN WHO'S NAME ESCAPES ME IS APPOINTED BY THE CITY. AN APPOINTMENT IS PENDING AT THE END OF THIS YEAR. THE CONTROVERSY IS THAT MIKE CARROLL (HENRY GARRETT APPOINTED MIKE CARROLL PRIOR TO THE ELECTION ON THE CITY COUNCIL). EDC FEARED THE BALANCE OF POWER WOULD HAVE BEEN AFFECTED. NOW, THE OTHER PEOPLE OF LENCHO, YOLANDO OLIVAREZ (SOLOMON ORTIZ HELPS HER WITH CONTRACTS), KEN BERRY, BOBBY GONZALEZ. LOOKS LIKE BOBBY GONZALEZ WILL BE REAPPOINTED. YOLANDA WILL LEAVE SO THEY ARE TRYING TO PUT SHAMSIE (HE HAS JUST PUT IN AN APPLICATION). KEEP IN MIND THAT RENE RODRIGUEZ HAS SUBMITTED AN APPLICATION. THE OTHER ISSUE IS THAT SHAMSIE IS WANTED ON THERE BECAUSE HE IS WITH LENCHO. NOW, OSCAR ORTIZ CONTROLS PEGGY BANALES AND BETTY JEAN. ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COMMISSIONERS COURT YOU HAVE CAZALES AND NEIL. BUT STRANGELY CAZALES HAS BEEN VOTING WITH ORTIZ. MIKE HUMMELL ON THE CITY COUNCIL SIDE IS FRIENDLY WITH LENCHO SO THEY WILL TRY TO GET ANOTHER MEMBER ON THE PORT APPOINTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL AND THE REASON THE PEGGY BANALES RACE WAS SO IMPORTANT WAS TO GET THE PORT. NOW, LETS LOOK AT THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE: TERRY CARTER IS RUMORED TO HAVE HIS DAYS NUMBERED ON THERE. EDC CONTROLS PORT NOW BUT LENCHO IS PUSHING TO CONTROL THE PORT. THE MAIN ENGINE THAT CONTROLS THE ECONOMY IS THE PORT SO THAT IS WHY SHAMSIE AND LENCHO COVET IT. HUERTA CONNECTION: HUERTA IS TIED IN WITH MIKAL WATTS. THEY SIT ON SEVERAL BOARDS THAT THE EDC CONTROLS. MIKAL WATTS IS IN THERE. WHAT REMAINS UNCLEAR IS WHETHER LENCHO HAS ALLIANCES WITH WATTS.
BONILLA CONNECTION: BY RUBEN BONILLA GETTING HALF A MILLION FROM ONE, A QUARTER OF MILLION FOR FEES OF CITY ENTITIES FOR LEGAL FEES (FED TO SHAMSIE AND RENE RODRIGUEZ BACK WHEN TERRY SHAMSIE RAN). THAT IS WHY RUBEN BONILLA AND SHAMSIE NOT ON FRIENDLY TERMS BECAUSE RUBEN WAS RAKING IT IN. WHEN SHAMSIE CAME IN AS COUNTY JUDGE HE WAS IDEALISTIC AND WAS LOOKING AT THE FUNDS AND MONEY. RUBEN BONILLA MAKING OVER A MILLION FOR REPRESENTING SEVERAL ENTITIES.
NOW EDC AND RENDON/SHAMSIE FACTION: BOTH GROUPS ARE EXCLUSIVE.
LENCHO GROUP IS SO CLOSEKNIT. THE GROUP DYNAMICS IS THAT THEY ARE NOT INCLUSIVE. THE CIRCLE IS TIGHT. WHEN HILLARY CAME IT WAS EVIDENT. THEY CONTROLLED THE MEDIA WHICH ANGERED THE MAINSTREAM. IN THE LENCHO CIRCLE MIKE RENDON AND SARAH SALDIVAR (WHO WORKED WITH SOLOMONS DAUGHTER) ARE A PART OF THE GROUP. THE BROTHER IN LAW DAVID MARTINEZ IS IN RTA, NOW SARAH LEAVING SO JOSEPH RAMIREZ IS ENTERING RTA. WHO APPOINTS THE RTA PEOPLE? THE MAYOR OF ROBSTOWN THROUGH THE SMALL APPOINTMENTS COMMITTEE. NOW DO WE UNDERSTAND HOW THE COMMUNITY CAN GROW WITH THIS OLIGARCHY? IT IS TOO EXCLUSIVE. THEY DON'T SHARE THE WEALTH WITH ANYONE. SHAMSIE IS TIED IN WITH ALL THESE BIG DOLLARS, CONSULTANT WITH THE CITY OF ROBSTOWN, THE SCHOOL BOARD BUDGET OF ROBSTOWN.THE SHAMSIES AND LENCHOS DO THE PATH OF PAST RESISTANCE. SHAMSIE FIRST LATCHED ON TO FIL VELA, THEN RENE RODRIGUEZ, NOW LENCHO. SHAMSIE TRIED TO BE VERY ACCOMMODATING WITH EDC BUT THEY REJECTED HIM SO THAT IS WHY HE STARTED AWARDING THINGS TO DOS LOGISTICS AND OMEGA TO CURRY FAVOR WITH LENCHO AND NOW IS TRYING TO HELP MORE OF LENCHOS COMPANIES WHICH IS THE NEW ONE LR GLOBAL AND ASSOCIATES. REMEMBER THAT LENCHO YOU NEVER SEE HIM MUCH IN PUBLIC. RECENTLY HE HAD A SEMINAR CALLED OCEAN SECURITY CONFERNCE WITH 34 COUNTRIES AND BROUGHT IN MILITARY PEOPLE AND THERE ARE DOLLARS BEING PUT OUT BY THE GOVERNMENT. SOLOMON SITS ON COMMITTEE TO AWARD MONIES THROUGH CONTRACTS. BY BEING RETIRED MANY OF THESE GENERAL AVOID BEING CONFLICTED. THE GENERALS USE THEIR INFLUENCE TO INFLUENCE THE PRESENT MILITARY PEOPLE WHO REPLACES THEM AND LENCHO FINDS A WAY TO PAY THE RETIRED GENERALS AS CONSULTANTS. HE MADE IT LOOK LIKE HE BROKE UP WIHT SOLOMON IN 2006 BUT IT WAS TRULY TO AVOID THE CONFLICT. THAT IS WHY HE IS USING HIS NEPHEW JOSEPH...TO AVOID CONFLICTS. SHAMSIE: AS COUNTY JUDGE HE WAS IDEALISTIC AND THEN BECAME REALISTIC AFTER THE EDC REJECTION. HE SAID, PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE BUT HE WENT WITH LENCHO. HE IS LIKE A WILLOW. HE HAS THAT CLASSIC BEHAVIOR AND GIVE IN AND DIVIDE AND CONQUER INSTEAD OF CREATE. THAT IS WHY HE JOINED WITH LENCHO IN ORDER TO BE WITH SOMEONE STRONG. HE ACTS LIKE A DEMOCRAT BUT PRACTICALLY BEGGED TO BE WITH EDC AND THE WHITES BUT AGAIN, THEY SPURNED HIM. DOS LOGISTICS MADE MILLIONS. THEY BOUGHT SHAMSIE A HOUSE. HMMM. THINK ABOUT IT. DID HE ACCEPT GIFTS LIKE THIS WHILE IN OFFICE? NOW YOU ARE SEEING THE PAYBACK THEY OWE SHAMSIE. LR GLOBAL OPERATES LIKE PART MARKETING PART BUSINESS (CONSTRUCTION, PUBLIC RELATIONS ETC). PARTICULARLY FOR MILITARY CONTRACTS. THEY ARE BRINGING IN SHAMSIE AS A CONSULTANT. THEY ARE CLEVER. SHAMSIE IS BEING PAID BY ENTITIES. THINK OF SOLOMON ORTIZ WHEN HE WAS YOUNG, GETS OUT OF ARMY, RUNS FOR CONTSTABLE, COMMISSIONER, SHERIFF, AND EVERY SINGLE PUBLIC POST IS ALWAYS PAYING MONEY. THEY NEVER HAVE SERVED ON SCHOOL BOARDS, CITY COUNCIL. THEIR WHOLE MENTALITY IS TO PIMP OFF SYSTEM. SAME WITH LENCHO. HE DOESNT HAVE TO PAY SHAMSIE, THE CITY AND SCHOOL BOARD OF ROBSTOWN FUNNELS MONEY. ROD RAMON AND ABEL HERRERO ARE A PART OF THE CLICK. NOW GRANTED, WE ARE ALL TRYING TO MAKE MONEY AND FEED OUR FAMILIES BUT THIS IS PIMPING OFF THE SYSTEM. THIS IS POLITICS.REMEMBER BORCHARD? HE APPOINTED TO THE PORT THE SAME BANKER WHO HIRED HIM. THE PEOPLE AT THE PORT NOW BUY THE INSURANCE IS BOUGHT WHICH BILL DODGE WAS ASSOCIATED WITH (BILL DODGE BANKER AT ROBSTOWN. SAME INSURANCE COMPANY IS BEING SUPPORTED BY LOBBYING EFFORTS OF HUGO BERLANGA AND RUBEN BONILLAS IS THE LAWYER! WHAT A RACKET!CONSULTANTS EVERYWHERE.
NOW EDC: PRIMARILY ANGLOS BUT CURIOUSLY MORE PLURALISTIC. THEY SHARE MORE OF THE WEALTH. THEY ARE MORE SOPHISTICATED AND NOT SO HEAVY HANDED AND PROJECT HIGHER STANDARDS. AL JONES, MIKE CARROLL, JOE FULTON, BERRY CONSTRUCTION AND ANYTHING YOU CAN THINK OF, BUT WHAT HAPPENS ITS A SMALL MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX. ALTHOUGH NOT SO TIGHTKNIT AS LENCHOS THEY ARE STILL SOMEWHAT EXCLUSIVE.THE EDC'S FORMULA IS SIMPLE. ITS A SHADOW GOVERNMENT. ROOTS GO BACK TO HAYDEN HEAD. HAYDEN HEAD WAS AN ATTORNEY. NEVER RAN FOR OFFICE. HE WAS INVOLVED WITH THE PORT. HE MADE SURE THAT CITY COUNCILMAN WERE BUSINESSMAN. WHEN THINGS WANTED TO BE DONE, HE WOULD GET PEOPLE WHO WANTED A CONTRACT, AND THE MEETINGS (LIKE THE MARKETING PLAN FORWARD CORPUS CHRISTI) AND WOULD SAY THE CONTRACTORS WOULD PAY FOR THE MARKETING, LOOK FOR CERTIFICATES OF OBLIGATION FROM THE PUBLIC (HAYDEN HEAD STARTED AMERICAN BANK IN THE 1970'S WHICH AL JONES IS THE HEAD OF NOW). A THREE PART OPERATION BEGINS: YOUR BUILDERS(THEY PROVIDE THE FINANCING FOR THE MARKETING TO SELL THE PROJECT), THE POLITICIANS LIKE MAYOR (LOOK WHO CONTRIBUTES MONEY TO THE POLITICIANS DAVID ENGOLS TO JUAN GARCIA EXAMPLE) AND THEN THE BANKS FUNDS IT (AL JONES IS THE MODERN DAY HAYDEN HEAD, FINANCED PACKERY, AMERICAN BANK CENTER, WHATABURGER FIELD).POLITICAINS SELL IT, BUILDERS MARKET IT, BANKS FINANCE IT. ON THE FOOD CHAIN POLITICIANS ARE THE LOWEST. HERE YOU HAVE THE EDC (NONPROFIT) WHICH IS A DEFACTO POLITICAL MACHINE. THEY CAN'T BE AUDITED BY THE CITY!!! THE CITY CAN'T LOOK AT THEIR BOOKS. ANOTHER THING, THE CITY GIVES THEM AUTHORITY FOR THE EDC TO DECIDE WHERE ECONOMIC GROWTH IS BEST, WHERE LAND VALUE SHOULD BE RAISED. THESE GUYS ON EDC KNOW WHERE LAND WILL RAISE VALUE, THEN THEY GO BUY THE LAND! THIS IS INSIDER TRADING. OVERNIGHT A PIECE OF CRAP LAND BECOMES GOLD. (INSIDE INFORMATION IS MORE POWERFUL THAN MONEY MY FRIENDS). THE EDC IS A POLTICAL MACHINE. WHO GETS THE CONTRACTS? 90 PERCENT OF PROJECTS, WHATABURGER FIELD AND AMERICAN BANK CENTER: JOE FULTON! MIKE CARROLL, ED MARTIN (HEAD OF BERRY CONSTRUCTION) CHANGE LEADERSHIP ROLES (DON'T CONFUSE KEN BERRY THE SOLOMONISTA WITH THE MAIN FAMILY).
CITY AND COUNTY CONSTRUCTION PROJECT DIFFERENCES. JOE FULTON WAS LATE ON PROJECT HE UNDERBID EVERYONE ON. HE SAYS "I CAN'T DO IT WITH WHAT I BID, NEED MORE MONEY(THIS IS KNOWN AS COST OVERRUN). AMERICAN BANK CENTER, WHATABURGER FIELD. HE HAS SELDOM IF EVER COMPLETED A PROJECT ON TIME AND HAS DONE COST OVERRUN BIG TOWN. THE SHADOW GOVERNMENT THEY ARE ON, THE EDC ALLOW THESE COST OVERRUNS AND THE CITY HAS NOTHING TO SAY ABOUT.CORPORATE SPONSORSHIP: APPOINT PEOPLE ON EDC BECAUSE THE CITY AND COUNTY CAN ONLY APPOINT SO MANY.LET'S LOOK AT NUMBERS. LESS THAN 1 PERCENT JOB GROWTH (WORKSOURCE) THEY GET INSIDE INFORMATION AND EVERYONE MAKES MONEY AND THE COMMUNITY RARELY BENEFITS. IF YOU DESTROY THE EDC, THEY WILL JUST BUILD ANOTHER ORGANIZATION. LOOK AT THE AMERICAN BANK CENTER BOARD AND YOU WILL SEE MANY BIG PLAYER. THE HEAD OF CCISD IS THERE. WHERE DID HE WORK? AMERICAN BANK. WHO HAS MARKETING CONTRACT: CAROL SCOTT (WIFE OF MARK SCOTT). JOHN LONGORIA: HE SITS ON ADVISORY BOARD, NELDA MARTINEZ ON CITY COUNCIL SHE SITS ON ADVISORY BOARD OF AMERICAN BANK TOO.
SAME THAT SHAMSIE AND LENCHO DO THE EDC DOES. THEY GO AFTER ENTITIES OF GOVERNMENT AND GO AFTER PUBLIC DOLLARS (WE ARE CREATING JOBS SAYS JOE FULTON IF YOU BUILD WHATABURGER WITH CERTIFICATES OF OBLIGATION? YOU CREATE NOTHING. YOU ARE PASSING ON A BILL TO FUTURE GENERATIONS. THIS IS WHAT LENCHO/SHAMSIE ARE DOING AND EDC IS DOING. LESS THAN 1 PERCENT JOB GROWTH. ALL THE TAXPAYERS MONEY WENT TO THESE PEOPLE THIS IS THE IGNORANCE OF THE TAXPAYERS OF NUECES COUNTY.
PACKERY CHANNEL: THE CITY OF CORPUS CHRISTI BORROWED 9 MILLION. HOW MUCH INTEREST DID AMERICAN BANK CHARGE IN INTEREST? 99 PERCENT INTEREST AND YOU AND I ARE PAYING FOR IT. USURY, NO LESS. IT WAS ON LOYD NEILS WATCH.
CONCLUSION: THE FLOODGATES OF OPPORTUNITY. THESE GROUPS MONOPOLIZE POWER AND HOPE. THESE PEOPLE CREATE NOTHING AND PROFIT AMONG THEMSELVES.PEOPLE OF CORPUS CHRISTI, CHECK IT OUT. DO THE RESEARCH. YOU DON'T NEED A COLLEGE DEGREE TO COMPREHEND THESE THINGS. I CARE ABOUT MY COMMUNITY AND THESE GROUPS UNDERESTIMATE THE PEOPLE IN THIS COMMUNITY AND THEY THINK WE WOULD NEVER FIGURE IT OUT. BUT WE ARE FIGURING IT OUT.

MORE TO COME. COMMENTS PLEASE.

Regarding the in depth study regarding the deterioration (to the right lane) of all city streets implemented in daily bus routes; I do concur with the inclusion of all other large capacity vehicles however, the RTA travails are dedicated to the right lane. The RTA has responded in certain areas with effective engineering and design applications. If only every RTA traveled street (in Corpus Christi Region) was built as the patchwork in front of certain bus stops (To circumvent deterioration at bus stops, the RTA provides eight inches of reinforced concrete at high traffic stops).

Your service and dedication to the community stands in recognition.

Thank You

Anton,

Thank you for your interest for information regarding the Corpus Christi Regional Transportation Authority (RTA). I want you to know that I am available for you or anyone to address any issues, concerns or questions regarding the RTA. In fact it is my pleasure to do so. Having served on the board for eight years, two of which were as chairman of the Authority, I am very proud to say that the RTA is a transparent and prudent organization and a leader among its peers in the industry.

Your e-mail was addressed to Ricardo Sanchez and my self including all board members and several other policy makers and public officials. Being one of the individuals you addressed personally, I figure I will take a stab at responding to your concerns or issues.

I'm not sure if you are aware, but I am no longer chair of the agency. That position has been filled by Crystal Lyons. I would add that she has filled the position quite well. Mrs. Lyons brings great respect and vision to the organization. Any one would be hard pressed to find someone more passionate or knowledgeable about public transportation than Mrs. Lyons.

Your correspondence mentions the award winning Caller Times report of the potential appointment of Joseph Ramirez on the RTA board of directors. However, Mr. Ramirez was never appointed. Quite frankly, I'm not even aware if he submitted an application to any of the appointing bodies (City of Corpus Christi, Nueces County, and Small City Mayors).

Your correspondence mentions the secrecy of RTA board appointments. It is my recollection the last city appointment had in excess of 20 applicants for the vacancy. The process of marketing board appointments falls with the responsibility of each appointing body. I have for your convenience provided website information below that is open to anyone with access to the internet 24 hours a day.

City of Corpus Christi: http://www.cctexas.com/?fuseaction=main.view&page=3220

Nueces County: http://www.co.nueces.tx.us/boards/boardlist.asp

You will find a list of all appointments at the City's website: http://www.cctexas.com/files/g40/roster_ccrta.pdf

Board appointments with Nueces County are filled in September of odd numbered years. Board appointments with the City of Corpus Christi are filled in June of even numbered years. You will find all this information on the web or by calling the City Secretary's office or the County Judges office. Small City appointments are appointed by the Mayors of each city within the transit authority except Corpus Christi. That body elects a chair and the current chair is the Mayor of Robstown. They also appoint in September of odd numbered years. For information on the Small City Mayors, you can contact RTA or the City of Robstown. I am sure if you or anyone for that matter has any ideas regarding marketing vacancies and appointments, each agency would be open to suggestions. To my knowledge, the process is followed as any other board appointment process. Nine years ago when I was appointed, I contacted the City Secretary's office and asked for a list of board vacancies. You will find each agency most helpful. I strongly encourage anyone to apply. The Authority is always looking for intelligent, independent minded people and the community could always use more advocates of public transportation.

Your correspondence requests an in depth study regarding the deterioration (to the right lane) of all city streets implemented in daily bus routes. Large capacity vehicles all over the community have been known to cause wear and tear on public streets. Large capacity vehicles would include refuse trucks public and private, semi-trucks, tractors trailers, school buses and charter buses to name a few. Deterioration mostly occurs when vehicles start and stop. To circumvent deterioration at bus stops, the RTA provides eight inches of reinforced concrete at high traffic stops. RTA capital projects department works diligently to extend the taxpayer dollar through coordination with the City engineering department for such projects. The coordination minimizes the cost of letting and prevents overlap or duplication of work. RTA currently subsidizes each community for street repair. The subsidy for the City of Corpus Christi is currently about $1,500,000 per year. This compromises about 6.5% of RTA's annual operating budget.

Please also keep in mind that public transportation removes other vehicles from city roads that may cause deterioration. Public transportation also improves air quality, relieves traffic congestion, creates and sustains jobs, provides access to jobs, stimulates economic development, boosts real estate values, fosters more livable communities, provides mobility for seniors, enhances mobility during emergencies, provides access for rural areas and saves money. Increased use of public transportation is the single most effective way to reduce America's energy consumption, and it does not require any new taxes, government mandates or regulations.

The RTA continually strives to try to improve itself. You will be pleased to know that through the leadership of our Congressman, Solomon Ortiz, the RTA has procured federal funds to complete a comprehensive operation analysis for the RTA. The study is currently in progress. It has been my hope that this study will move the RTA and Corpus Christi forward with regard to public transportation. The results should give RTA direction for providing greater efficiency, better customer service and being a better community partner.

I hope this correspondence has helped to provide clarification on your concerns. If I may assist you with anything further, please do not hesitate to contact me personally. I may be reached at 361-299-7373. You will find great leadership in Ricardo Sanchez, Crystal Lyons and the current board of directors of the RTA and I am sure they will be most enthusiastic in any additional clarification if necessary. Senior staff contact information can be found at the RTA website www.ccrta.org. The telephone number for the RTA is 361-289-2712.

Thank you again for your interest.

Subject: Fwd: [Corpus Christi Caller Times] Dear Ricardo Sanchez, Roland Barrera, Esteemed ...

Dear Ricardo Sanchez, Roland Barrera, Esteemed RTA Board Members,CCREDC Executives /Members Nueces County Commissioners Court and our All American City Council.

It is inconceivable in the eyes of a little person (who labors under a heavy burden daily) that we would appoint or place individuals in positions where merit is is non-existent. The Rendon family is well represented on the RTA Board.

According to the Caller Times Article written by Jaime Powell, There also could be a third Rendon family member on the RTA board in the near future.

Furthermore, in reviewing the minutes of various RTA meetings, the name Joseph Ramirez alludes discovery. What has this individual accomplished benefiting the RTA? It is with great emphasis we recognize individuals who are meritorious, individuals who are already involved / dedicated to the RTA. You guys are very aware of who the meritorious ones are. Certainly, it is a disservice to dedication for an individual to assume such a position without earning it first.

This appointment is one of ignorance (in that it iignores the citizenry) and without question unrepresentative of Nueces County. The Rendon Family shares not with it's community; but profiteers off of it. Questionable integrity, investigation and the proximity to scandal is WATT we (the RTA) get with the unsavory appointment of the Nephew (mouthpiece) of Florencio Rendon.

Turning to other Boards within the various Political Subdivisions of Nueces County, I will point to the DMC Regents and the election of one regent (whose family member was an employee) forcing the choice of one (of the two) resigning. The employee stepped away.

Another issue with the RTA appointment process as well as most appointments is the secrecy of the process. We need to know about the available positions before we can apply. Why is the marketing non existent? Vacancies are not communicated to the average citizen and it is only confirmation of the reliance on the disengagement of the average citizen in the formulation of public policy. Why does the public have to become research experts to be informed on important issues such as this?

We at Kenedeno & Associates specialize in the "engagement of the average citizen in the formulation of public policy".

We bring the public to your doorstep.

Also, in the interest of the City of Corpus Christi, we are recommending an in depth study regarding the deterioration (to the right lane) of all city streets implemented in daily bus routes. Specifically, we are referring to the patch repair of certain areas where the climate coupled with asphalt design and exceeded load capacity from RTA Machinery has taken a heavy toll.

Your efforts and your continued integrity is applauded, respected and often taken for granted.

Thank You

Anton Haley
