We have had several fatal shootings in our areas of Imperial County, CA.. Strangely, they seem to be ignored by the local media. During the Christmas season a Federal Taskforce consisting of Fed. Marshals, Sheriffs Dept. and local police conducted raids and arrested 44 wanted felons. A great good, taking them of the streets.
Homeland Sercurity has also apprehended several M13 members here during the last year.
This small area on the U.S/Mex. border has a much larger presence of law enforcement than many cities.
