Thanks - I’ll take a look. And, I don’t do Facebook, but my wife does, so maybe she can find something there.
I keep thinking that the media would have interviewed more of the people who knew Jose Guerena, and maybe they did early on, but at that time we were dealing with (repeated) storm damage and then floods and then more storm damage around here. :-(
In general, I’m surprised that the media has not done more digging, or that the national media has not taken note, but maybe they are politically allied with the Sheriff? (That’s a question, not an accusation.)
surprisingly, they have done more than usual though it is not enough. They do have limited budgets, and there are always mundane stories to cover like graduations and car wrecks and the same weather every day (it’s tucson, and it’s HOT and DRY except for one time of the year when it’s HOT and wet.) and other dead bodies. This story started out as a heroic SWAT team kills bad drug dude in quiet neighborhood. I thought that was a good thing. A week later, the story changed. Yes, the reason the story changed is because the family started complaining that the victim was a war hero, dad, hard worker, etc. The sheriff’s department released the little bit about how the victim never fired a shot. That was huge to this wife and mom who drove by that house and saw those bullet holes just down the street from a house my children had slept in and another house their baseball coach had lived in. We know lots of families in that quiet neighborhood. We see sheriff’s deputies around there all the time. That’s a good thing considering this is a “drug corridor” and frequented by illegals on their way to life elsewhere. There’s a lot of Border Patrol presence as well.
I have posted as many news stories as I see (and that aren’t already posted) on this subject. I believe the exposure has caused the media to ask more questions than they would normally. This is such a big deal to my husband that he has wanted to pull out his journalist credentials and go after the truth whatever that may be.
