I went to grade school through High school with him and played football with him all those years also. I have met his dad. They are great people, and from what I've heard his brother was just as high caliber person. Sorry for the depressing post, but I am just very saddened and angered by this.

I heard about that on the news. I live in Texas as well. Very sorry for the family. Senseless killings. No way do we need to secure the border.

I have nothing against hispanic people coming here to live "legally", and I feel horrible for all of the kids making their way here for a better life, but we have to lock it down NOW to get control of this fiasco. and I was reading in another article that the one that had been arrested 4 times prior for crossing over illegaly served like 10 days in jail or something like that and then they just sent him back to mexico and he just crossed right back over. Also I am usually not for the death penalty but I think in this case I hope they get it... Another thing that pissed me off is one of them had the nerve to say "i never meant to hurt anyone".. motherfucker.. you were robbing people at gunpoint and shot a man in front of his family. how is that not meant to hurt anyone? It sucks. that is like a family tradition to do down here. go fishing in the various arroyos. No one ever fucked with anyone really before. now people are robbing and killing people just trying to spend time with their family. Also There have been many armed home invasions down here that have also been linked to people over hear illegally. If any of you have interest in the drug cartel wars that are going on and other border news this is a pretty good blog.

It's really strange what stories make national news these days. It's almost as if that unless the story is about what a movie star is wearing, or ebola rates in Africa, it's not worth talking about.

Normally in Texas with Capital Murder especially of a Agent it will be Death Penalty. Also one of them has admitted to 4 other similar robberies in the area, each time attacking a family fishing, stealing a vehicle, and forcing the families onto the ground at gunpoint. So he got 4 more counts of aggravated robbery Edited August 7, 2014 by mouselad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
