Case Study: Rio Grande

On the day of April 19, 1993, at the Mount Carmel Compound in Waco Texas, an inferno of flames broke out after a 51 day siege on the Branch Davidians cult group. A total of 92 lives were lost during the fire, as well as many more during the previous 51 days. Many speculations arose whether the compound being incinerated was set by the FBI in a final attempt to make the Davidians leave the compound, and end the million dollar siege once and for all, or if it was a mass suicide conducted by David Koresh, the leader of the Branch Davidians. Of course, this will always remain a mystery, because almost 100 of the members refused to leave the building, leaving it to be a national tragedy, and unclosed case of who did it.

The second you get off the plane you can smell the salty waters and fruity smoothies. The dry air and glaring sun on your skin brings me the feeling of warmth and happiness. The bright green palm tree leaves rustling in the wind providing slight shade from the bright golden sun. The sand if full of shells, that with one wrong step will slice your foot. Making your journey down to the water not comfortable. The water is so still in the morning it looks like a painting. Even when it's seventy-five degrees outside the water is still as clear as glass. It’s cold at first, but after you dive under like a dolphin once or twice

In June of 2014, Vice President Joe Biden met with leaders from Central American countries including Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras and Mexico “to help highlight warnings about the dangers of crossing Mexico and the United States border, as well as the futility of trying to obtain legal status without a proper visa.”(Archibold) The number of unaccompanied children migrating to the United States continues to steadily increase since its initial boom in the late 1990’s. Highlighted in the 2006 biographical piece, Enrique’s Journey by Sonia Nazario, the author writes to express the dangers not just at the U.S.-Mexican border, but rather from Central American countries throughout Mexico itself to get to the borderline.

Enrique’s expedition was a deadly pathway for most immigrants with similar interests; children, young and old are most likely to have their arms and legs severed or even die before they could see their mothers again.For enrique, dangers lurked in the form of gangsters, bandits, police offices and La Migra.They rob and rape innocents, stripping them of anything valuable, even their mother’s numbers.Enrique endured the beatings of a gangster, which left him with a permanent drooped left eye; he suffered several injuries that he wished he was caught by the officials, ending the torture.After several failures, Enrique’s eighth attempt to cross borders became successful; he reached Nuevo laredo, close to the U.S territory. Along the way, he met friends, foes and kind people whose offering aided his journey; he worked small jobs to earn money for food and bandits, if they threaten to kill

At the request of Sergeant S.Drewry I made contact with Assistant Vice President Donna PARIS() at Big Horn Federal regarding money being transferred into an account at Big Horn Federal. PARIS informed me that the bank had placed a hold on the funds and are waiting for a request from the bank that had sent the money before they could wire the money back. PARIS also informed me that she would look further into the matter and make contact with Sergeant S.Drewry later in the

The Pecos river is an amazing kayaking trip that really puts the individual in the center of nature. It is roughly 900 miles long and is “one of the major tributaries of the Rio Grande (Pecos).” The Pecos River was home to the Pecos Pueblo Indians and they left behind a variety of different artwork (Pecos). These pieces of art range from pots to pictographs and petroglyphs that can be located in a variety of places along the river. However, there has been an increase in human activity that has caused some of the pieces of artwork to be damaged or fully destroyed. One of the most popular places to find petroglyphs is along the Lewis Canyon. There are roughly thousands of petroglyphs that the ancient Indian tribes would carve into the stone but, since the rise in the human levels, I have noticed people trying to impersonate some of these images and also leave trash around that area. Therefore, I believe that it would be best to have someone go out there every week to pick up the trash and to also look after this place because there is history that surrounds the Pecos River.
