If PSJA ISD is going to operate in a spirit of Bad Faith with The Advance News Journal moving forward, as opposed to the spirit of Good Faith, which has been the norm between this district and this newspaper for decades, then who else might be treated in the same fashion? What other vendor is going to be told that the contract it currently has with PSJA ISD is no longer valid because someone associated with the district has just found a loophole, a technicality if you will, to break it?

According to a story filed by the AP May 31, written by Mark Stevenson, one of Mexico’s deadliest drug cartels is hunting down police officers, killing them at home, on their days off, in front of their families.

A new true-crime book, based on a capital murder that went down in Hidalgo County six years ago, hits the book shelves this week, and with any luck, enough people will find it of interest to make the time and effort it took to write it worthwhile. Granted, I wrote it, and really, this front-page story is nothing short of shameless self-promotion, but this is the first true-crime book I’ve written, so I’m anxious to get some feedback.
