I just posted it because TC said it hadn't been reported in the paper and I remembered reading about it today. I thought it interesting that it was reported he was picked up on Feb. 10 and reported 2 weeks later.

Another interesting report in today's OC Register is titled Nations gang up to stop gangs. Lead says: "El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and the U.S. seek ways to work on crime fight."

An AP article by Traci Carl datelined Apopa, El Salvador, has the FBI, Homeland Security and So. Cal. law enforcement there with gang members rounded up by Salvadoran police. About 50 officals from the nations were taking part in a 3-day conference that included talking to reformed gang members, visiting jails and interviewing those rounded up in the pre-dawn raid. The article also mentions the arrest of Rivera Paz.

I didn't say anything about it. I hadn't heard about it, but I'm not in South Texas now.

As far as I'm concerned, I don't care about the gangs in El Salvador or Guatamala or Honduras as long as they don't cross that Rio Grande.
