News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

Former Juárez police chief Saulo Reyes Gamboa waived a detention hearing in federal court Monday and was held without bond, U.S. Attorney's officials said.

Reyes was arrested Jan. 16 on marijuana possession and conspiracy charges after a sting operation in which he allegedly arranged the smuggling of close to 1,000 pounds of marijuana into El Paso.

U.S. Attorney's officials said the next step for prosecutors will be to present the case to a grand jury and secure an indictment.
