Just last evening I was speaking with a campaign manager for another candidate for congress.  I asked him if his candidate's entry into the race had anything to do with the possibility of a Villalobos endictment.  He said "no" but felt the Republicans might be licking there chops expecting an indictment AFTER the primaries. . . . . . Now, today Juan Montoya breaks the story!







Here is the story published by Juan Montoya in his blog El Rrun Rrun.  The story is uncorroborated by local media:

CAMERON COUNTY D.A. VILLALOBOS INDICTED !!!!

Villalobos

Livingston

Cameron County District Attorney Armando Villalobos was indicted today by a federal grand jury looking into the release by disgraced former 404th District judge Abel Limas of convicted murderer Amit Livingston.
[Villalobos former law partner, Eddie Lucio (not our Eddie Lucio) also was indicted.]
Livingston has been on the run since April 2007, when he absconded on a $500,000 security bond. According to federal courthouse sources, the federal statute of limitations on charging anyone for his escape from the country will run out five years from then, in April 2012, this year.
The Livingston case was easily one of the of most notorious emerging from Limas' court shenanigans and involved the murder of 32-year-old Hermila Hernandez, whose body was found October of 2005 near a South Padre Island beach.
Livingston, a man she met on the Internet and with whom she had had a brief affair, was convicted of killing her after she "pushed his buttons" and "insulted his manhood" during one of their meetings.
After his conviction, court records show that Limas allowed Livinsgton to go free for 60 days after defense attorneys reached a deal with prosecutors on the furlough.
Limas granted defense attorney Greg Gladden’s request for the grace period before his client was to surrender and begin serving his sentence, without an objection on record from the DA's office.
In later accounts, Cameron County District Attorney Armando Villalobos said the release occurred despite his objections in private chambers. Shortly after the plea agreement was made in Livingston’s murder case, Limas divided the $500,000 cash bond between Hernandez’s children and their lawyer, Eddie Lucio of Austin.
Lucio, Villalobos’ former law partner, was dealt in because he filed a parallel civil wrongful death suit against Livingston, attaching the bond money as settlement for Hernandez’ death.
