Questions and Doubts in a Texas Shooting Case
By RALPH BLUMENTHAL
PASADENA, Tex. — Even before the police called the night of Nov. 14, Stephanie Storey said, she knew that her fiancé of two days, Miguel Antonio DeJesus, was dead.

She knew it, Ms. Storey said, because she had not been able to reach him all day, and because she was watching the news at 9 o’clock when she saw his body.

It was lying on a front lawn decorated for Christmas in a middle-class subdivision in this Houston suburb ringed by refineries, not far from the body of his sometime construction partner and childhood friend from Cali, Colombia, Diego Ortiz.

Both men, illegal immigrants, one with a prison record, had been riddled with shotgun pellets fired by a retired computer manager, Joe Horn, who called 911 that Wednesday about 2 p.m. to say he was watching them break into the house next door. “I’m not going to let them get away with it,â€

Both ran short distances before collapsing and dying, leaving behind a tire iron used to break open a window, a lock-punch and a pillowcase holding jewelry and about $2,000 cash from the neighbors, a Vietnamese family that ran a local dry-cleaners.

Who were probably here LEGALLY!

I can't begin to describe how much The New York Slimes pisses me off!



Sure he was a good guy!

-Fathered multiple children.

-Drug-dealer

-Robber

-Came into this country illegally and used forged documents to stay here.

-Absconder/fugitive.

A regular S. American Horatio Alger story.



If this DA gets an indictment I hope to hell the voters of that country keelhaul him the next election.

Despicable political hack should be on the payroll of the PAN.
