Special to The Tribune
RIO GRANDE CITY, Texas - They've always talked about this town on the western fringe of the Rio Grande Valley as the place to go hide, to go get lost, to go shoot snakes and cows and stuff. That's never changed, only now it is being talked about by law enforcement as the haven for trafficking of young girls brought-in from Mexico to work in sex-for-hire operations.
A 13-year-old girl from the Mexican bordertown of Guerrero is the latest victim.
They lured her here on a promise of a job. That job turned out to be turning sexual tricks for fat and hairy men who dropped a pair of twenty-dollar bills in the hands of a Mexican at the door. It was a low-rent apartment that served as her work station, say the cops who this week busted the illicit operation and dragged four men to jail.
It is a story that should shame the town and the region, but these things rarely do. Trafficking is king here, whether it is drugs, guns or sex. There's cash in narcotics, killing and taking to the sack, goes the line in bars, cafes and the unemployment office, where such things are discussed in whispers.
The oppressors in this tale are a doomsday foursome, three grown men and a 17-year-old misguided youth - all of them sporting the look of crime, perfect faces for the casting of outlaws in a Law & Order episode. Their lawyer, the ubiquitous Al Alvarez, already is arguing that the 13-year-old girl knew exactly why she was being brought here. Alvarez is not cheap. Perhaps the business of hiring-out women is that lucrative in poverty-stricken Starr County.
Their names are common names:
Juan Antonio Garcia, 31.
Juan Chavarria, 25.
Jorge Eustacio Martinez, 45.
Ricardo Torres, 17.
Their faces promise action. It may not be action of the sort we would deem to be those of accomplishment. Not by any stretch of the imagination. These are rough-hewn faces beaten into shape by scorching suns, dust and hereditary manual labor, more like masks that scare the Beejeezus out of women and children. Yes, they are presumed innocent until convicted in a court of law. That's the system they will welcome, the protection availed by the U.S. Constitution. Too bad the little girl didn't have it.
Garcia reportedly was asked by the little girl to be taken back to her hometown when she realized her new life would be that of being nothing more than a piece of meat. His response was chilling: "You know what you are here to do, so do it."
She's been returned to Mexico, ruined for the moment and scarred forever...

exellent journalism by The Tribune. Those guys look like criminals, dude. 40 bucks, huh? seems cheap. thanks.
The news material on this blog is superb. As is the writing. I'm new here, but I'm aboard. There is plenty to write about in the valley, that's for sure. How about some stjuff on UTPA? Sports are sorry at the university. Losing teams every damned year. Just think about it.

Our friend Chapa won't take on Jake. He's a cobarde in my world. Too bad about his wife being insulted. he should ban that idiot.
great article as always. the Trib puts things right, not like that dwarf chapaneco who lies about his comments. it's just you moron! don't even thinkabout writing about my town. Viejo estupido! Defend your wife, Chapa. pobre infeliz.
It is true, comments were posted in the BLR, about Tony Tormenta and Chapa and his lard ass wife, from some guy name, Jake LOL.
Going back you the trafficking post, a la carcel cabrones.
Mr. Editor; what great news, Dominique was only 16 when she won the crown. The sponsors of the Ms. San Antonio, are nothing but bigots, there is no law for being poor and buying clothing from Wallmart.
KooL Arrows, you can't take her good looks away.
Mhns, Tonis C. is milking the police incident, according to him he got, 71 comments, that is not what we counted, Maricon, are you fibbing again???
Can you believe that some blogger has asked Tonie Chapis to review the comments under Tony Tormenta's article on BLR, where jake the snake LOL call Toni's wife a lard ass.
Wow, this Tonie, guy has a missing screw.
Estos cabroncitos, are heading for prison. I think this are federal crimes. Human Trafficking sounds nasty.
Chapa's wife must be retarded to not know what's ging on in her own home. Is she all there? just asking.
ALL:...We have no first-hand knowledge about the intellect of Tony Chapa's hard-working wife, although she struck us being okay when we met her, not okay in a sexual way, but okay as a decent-looking Human Being. Why her husband allows her to be dragged through the perverted porno mud spread by his blogger Jake is the $64,000 question. Comments supplied by Jake to Tony's comatose blog cannot possibly be worth the soiling of his wife's rep... - Editor
Readers are asking Chapaneco to ban jake after Jake posts stupidity ater stupidity. Chapa won't do it. He needs the commenst and maybe more from Jake. Do i have to spell it out, bros? LOL!
Jake accussed Kingi Canute of moving to the Trib. I read the rebuttal, Canute has too much class for Jake and his slave Tonie Chapis. This jotos were made for one another.
Out of 7 comments 3 tonie and one his slave boy, (el hoton) jakie, his only stories about the police, he can't write about anything else.
does anyone know who King canute is? I mean, who is he in town? a former bureaucrat? He seems to have a brain unlike Chapaneco and Jake who I believe are pushing homosexuality. Just my opinion, tho.
The cartels did him in, the druggies don't like anyone who is famous and wealthy in Mexico.
So if the TV host is dead, can Chapaneco take over his nickname - La Gata? It seems to fit. ha ha ha ha.
Glad to hear, the San Antonio Beauty contest is resolved.
That young lady is traumatized for life, she is only 17 years of age.
Go, get them girl!!! Lay them the Hispanic Charm, yep, you are a pretty one alright.
Jerry Deals blog is rimming another Ahole to chapis blog, I wonder how, chapis slave boy, is going to spin this one, Loserrrsss.
It's over for Chapa no matter what he says. He has nothing to offer the community as a news blog, if he ever did. You're either a journalist that can be trusted or not. He is not. A hit man killed my son in law. Pleeeeeeese. Cobarde. Corriste cuando te busco la ley. Dilo, cara de menso! LOL!!!
hey, bro, that teacher in sidebar is going to find his boy sex in jail. Fer sure, ese. Only he's going to be someone's bro inside the pen. that's justice. love it.
Johnny Joe, Chapis es el pinche viejo mas coyon que eh conocido, I hope the police associaton post a letter to the editor and exposes him for what he is, and his problems with the law.
Nobody likes him, only jake el joto y una vieja sonsa, que lo defiende. Puro scrape, pura jente de la placita, hijos de prostitutos y putas, nada mas.
folks out 23 comments at sewer blog, 16 chapiss and Jakesis, 7 blogs by someone else, ese viejo joto can't even hide his desire for comments.
and while Chapa tries his best to fend off The Tribune, Jerry Deal is eating his lunch. MyLeaderNews has news. chapaneco has the hots for Alcatraz, but the Tribune editor treats him like his shoeshine boy. Jake knows Tony as Mary? Wow!!!!
Not surprised, Bubba. Homos give each other girls names. Not that there's anything wrong with it. Are Chapa and Jake homos? enquiring minds want to know.
Some fools are defending, Nadia Tapia Gonzalez, at Jerry's blog. Bid deal, she got fired, so what's new???
out of 30 comments 19 are tonie and Jackies, he is down to 11 comments, you are loosing the fight you little shrimp, chapis estas perdiendo, koolarrow.
And he still lets Jake blog there. Jake the one who wrote about having Chapa's wife naked in the backseat of his Ford. le faltan huevos a Chapaneco. i'm going to email all of this stuff to his son at Channel 4. Haber que pasa, Papi.
Mr. Editor, Once again the Tribune has muzzled the shrimps blog to 0 credebility.
ANON:...We take great pleasure in helping to rid the community of a racist, hate-filled blog that serves no one. Our struggle, like Superman's, is never-ending, as we fight for truth, justice and The American way. Tony Chapa is practicing Mexican journalism, perhaps because he feels comfortable with it. Know this: We'll stay the course against this merchant of evil... - Editor
Patrick $348.000 dollars is quiet a bit of money, how many students does that district have? I need a ph.d , so I can qualify for big bucks.
What in the world is wrong with this woman. My goodness, sex with a 14 year old. What is the matter, she can't find men her age???
Maybe someone should introduce her to Jake, to set the Boy straight. You know what I mean by that. She's obviously needy on the sex front.
Jakey is obsessed with T/C and his lard ass chola. Tonie, won't offend Jakelyn, because he needs her 6 comments a day, and make her rag line blog look good.
Anon, those two aren't worth the piss of the day.
Why didn't the 44 year old man, hook up with the 39 year old woman??
As Mary Lou wrote on her post, what is wrong with this people. Did they think they were going to get away with it???
Another woman was caught messing around with a minor, Channel 5 reported that the incident happen at the rodeo grounds. She was arraigned in Mercedes according to the Mercedes Police Chief.
It happen during the stock show. It must be the water, or the taquitos, that is causing these incidents.
"Another woman caught", Anon she looked hot on tv. Alcatraz, maybe we need spring break for middle age women. Ms. Falcon, I am 26, you can buy me beer, touch me, drive me around, and I promise, my mom won't say a thing.
For that I will take you to Macy's and buy you all the tongs you like, ayayai,
The rumor is that chapaneco, is blogging under the name of factoid on jerrys blog, the dawg has called him out, one on one.
He is a coward he won't answer, he will run to his lard ass chola. Cobarde.
viejieto koolarrow, para esos me gustabas, gallina. Chapapote, no le saques, pos no que eres muy hombrecito.
Fellow bloggers, Jerry blog is eating the sewer line blog lunch like crazy. You should see all the posting, chapatoes blog 8 comments 6 belong to his lover, jackie and a couple of loonies who blog with there. 2 actual blogs, losers, losers, losers, losers, jajajajaj!!!!
We agree, Frito, Chapaneco is a kid among men when he tangles with jerry Deal and Alcatraz. Sorry sack of you know what!
