Hearing yields explosive testimony about law enforcement corruption in gun case

Looking forward to you refuting the facts as reported.

New Mexico gun dealers jailed for allegedly knowingly selling guns to cartel members

Aren't the ATF/DOJ the only ones allowed to knowingly sell guns to cartel members?

Thanks for posting. What happened to the Reese's can happen to any of us. I look for more Wacos in our near future. The sheep don't care because the msm hasn't told them how to feel.

The absolute corruption is unbelievable. My country is gone.

Finally, an "approved by Utilizer" MSM reporter is touching on the forbidden aspect of the case, and the reason why the govt wanted this hearing held in camera:

"Albuquerque attorneys Jason Bowles and Robert Gorence contended Monday that the key witness, Luna County sheriff's Deputy Alan Batts, knew he was under investigation for corruption when he assisted agents with the Reese investigation.

"The issue there: That Batts, who has not been charged with any crime, could have been compelled to assist the government in hopes of leniency with any future charges he could face."

Judge's ruling could come quickly in Deming gun case

Las Cruces Sun News "official MSM new source" enough for you, Utilizer?

And if not for the pluck of an "unofficial citizen reporter," NONE of this would have made the news AT ALL.

Something for those who demand we always wait for "official MSM news sources" before considering a story credible to think about.

And I'd still like to hear what exactly in the citizen reporter's story was false or misleading, according to Utilizer.

911-truthers, chemtrails, other conspiratorial nonsense ... Sometimes gross injustices does happen, such as here.

The BATF[E] are a blight.

What website are you referring to with “truther” and “ufo” articles?

If it is the Examiner website, you need to know that there is no editorial policy. The Examiner is an agglomeration of independent writers, so you have to examine the credibility of each to make your decision. What one writes has absolutely no impact on what another writes.

I did not see any “truther” or “ufo” links at the citizen reporter site for the Luna County Tea Party, the original source that is linked to. Did you?

Thanks to you, David Codrea and every poster/citizen journalist for exposing the tactics of totalitarians.

Another abuse in "a long train of abuses" BUMP!

Thanks for the info.

Plutarco Elías Calles grew up in poverty and deprivation, the son of an alcoholic who was not married to his mother. He adopted the Calles surname from the uncle who raised him after the death of his mother, Maria de Jesús Campuzano. This uncle, Juan Bautista Calles was a devout atheist and raised his nephew with a fanatical hatred of the Catholic Church. His father, also called Plutarco Elías, was descended from a prominent family in the Provincias Internas, most often recorded as Elías González. The first of this line to settle in Mexico was Don Francisco Elías González de Zayas (1707–1790), who emigrated from Soto de Cameros, La Rioja, Spain, to Zacatecas, Mexico, in 1729. Eventually, he moved north to Chihuahua, where, as commander of the presidio of Terrenate, he played a role in the wars against the Yaqui and Apache.

The Elías family accumulated their fortunes as capitalistic merchants. With their wealth they were able to invest in mining, ranches, good marriages and political favors from the representatives of the crown. In all, everything was done with the capital of the Elías. The positions of commandants, could be bought for 12-14 million pesos. The majority of the large land parcels in Arizona were notably controlled by the Elías González family, or families who were legally associated due to marrieges like the Ortiz or the Perez. The members of the Elías family increased their titles of various lands in the Tucson area even though they lived in Arizpe, Sonora.

In 1832, José Florentino Rafael Elías, was given the property deed to the Ranch of San Rafael of the Valley. We are speaking of the period in whichMexico had won its independence, and new land concessions were being made by the new government in Mexico. Rafael, had made his request in 1828; besides the ranch of San Rafael, he was also owner of the ranch in San Pedro. In 1837, he was named Governor of Sonora, and before being named governor, he was the chairman of the committee who replaced the local legislature. In those years there was a major economic depression that the soldiers even sold their arms to the general public. The shortages provoked revolts in 1832 and 1834 by the soldiers in Santa Cruz and Tucson. They were asking for help from the central government. Officer documented that Rafael issued a bulletin that advertised the consequences if residents bought arms from the soldiers.

Another grandson of Don Francisco was Simón Elías, older brother of Rafael. In his service record in Santa Cruz, appears the Don that was used by decedents of pure Spanish blood. Simon started his military career in 1788 in the Tucson company. He stayed there until 1793, then he was sent as a cadet to Buenavista. In 1807, he was assigned as commandant of the Tubac presidio. In 1814, this assignment was given to Ignacio Elias Gonzalez. Later on Simon was commandant of Santa Cruz, until 1820. Before 1811, he was military commander of the Villa de Chihuahua and the integrator of the military court of the Spanish crown. He participated in giving the execution order of Don Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla. On April 1,1826, was named as First Governor, for being the "most respectable and popular figure in Sonora". In May of 1826, he sent a circular to all the mayors of the frontier presidios requesting information on all entering foreigners. In those moments the Americans were traveling on their way to California after the gold fever. Colonel Sirnan Elias is the only person in the history of Mexico that functioned as governor of two states simultaneously, he later became governor of Chihuahua.

Col. José Maria Elías Gonzales, was the one who fought most with the Apaches. He was of the opinion that the Apaches “could not be considered as human socially and citizens". He would never permit that they live in a town, establish as land owners, work their land as it would be a “natural thing”. He proposed to the governor that a new pueblo be created in Sonora, nearby the presidios where the Apaches could establish themselves. He offered to take on some responsibilites and to provide them with tools and equipment and help them in other forms. At the end the Apaches suffered under the Mexican government and under the United States government. Jose Maria signed the peace treaty with the Apaches de Pinals on March 5, 1836. He became the Governor of Sonora in 1843.

President Plutarco Elías Calles

In 1915, Plutarco Elías Calles became Governor of Sonora, known as one of the most reformist politicians of his generation. His radical rhetoric tended to conceal the pragmatic essence of his policy, which was to promote the rapid growth of the Mexican national economy, whose infrastructure he helped to establish. In particular, he attempted to make Sonora a dry state, promoted legislation giving social security and collective bargaining to workers, and expelled all Catholic priests. In 1919, Venustiano Carranza promoted Calles to Secretary of Commerce, Industry and Labor. In 1920 he aligned himself with Álvaro Obregón to overthrow Carranza, and Obregón named him head of the interior ministry. Calles used his ability to draw in labor class votes to come to power with Obregón. He aligned himself with the Laborist Party and was in 1924 elected President of Mexico and remained in office until November 30, 1928.

Calles taking the presidential oath

In December of 1943, the niece of Gen. Plutarco Elias Calles, Dolores Calles Osuna of Tucson, Arizona was married to Alba Reese in Bisbee, Arizona. The announcement of this marriage was reported in the Society Page of the Yuma Daily Sun on December 11, 1943. The ceremony was performed by Superior Court Judge Frank E. Thomas, a friend of Reese since boyhood. Reese's brother Jerry was the grandfather of Rick Reese of Deming, New Mexico.
