SOUTH PADRE ISLAND - They say he seemed drunk out of his gourd, that he smelled like week-old, rotgut liquor, that he steadfastly declined to take a breathalyzer and blood test for the beach cops and that he had been, well, horribly mean to his defenseless wife. Carlos Cisneros, shown in photo above, thus joined the litany of Rio Grande Valley men accused of abusing women.
This from The Brownsville Herald: Former Brownsville City Commissioner Carlos A. Cisneros was arrested Sunday on charges of driving while intoxicated and assault-family violence. The arrest occurred about 12:45 a.m...He was released...on a personal recognizance bond. South Padre Island police received a call regarding a disturbance in progress at the Padre Grand resort...Cisneros allegedly assaulted his wife while at the resort...She left the resort in a taxi and Cisneros reportedly followed her in another vehicle...An SPI police officer patrolling Gulf Boulevard saw the taxi being followed by another vehicle and stopped both vehicles. After interviewing Cisneros and his wife, the officer noticed that Cisneros displayed signs of intoxication, so the officer administered a field sobriety test...After the test, Cisneros was arrested on the DWI charge and the assault charge...Cisneros refused to take a breathalyzer exam and also refused a blood exam...Precinct 2 Commissioner John Wood met with Cisneros this morning and that Cisneros tendered his resignation, which Wood accepted.
So, is that it? Again? Do we merely shake our heads and say something about boys being boys? Do we let the Macho Hispanic culture win-out one more time? Do we care that another local woman had to endure the stupidities of a Fronterizo? When will it end?...

For Commenter JUDE: You may now stop submitting your silliness. You, sir, have been BANNED. Now, run to El Rocinante and tell Henny Penny to tell Turkey Lurkey that your sky has fallen. "...And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world up on your shoulders. For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool by making his world a little colder..." - Editor
I knew it, I knew it, I said before, Pat Auhmada, was a crook, he got away with the check thing and played dumb. Well once a crook always a crook, and Mr. Auhmada proved it.I say to the DA, offer him six months in the slammer, that bum deserves no mercy." CRIMINAL"
mr.Elcomedor, what happen to mr. Patricio alcatraz???Did he leave the Valley??? Good luck as the new editor.
ANON: (1.) This arrest of the good mayor has nothing to do with the check scandal, for which, as you know, he was found not guilty. (2.) Our former editor, Patrick Alcatraz, is taking some time off. He will likely be back, as that's what happens to men when they meet a woman, get cold feet, go away, and then have time to think things out. He's in Santa Fe for a few beers. Thanks for asking... - Editor
