Carlos Masso |
Adjacent to the Carlos Masso tent at Cameron Park was the Abelardo Gomez tent. Longtime politiqueras Margarita Ozuna and Herminia Becerra flitted like queens between the two tents. Later, when Margarita Ozuna was charged with Election Code violations, Carlos Masso would serve as her defense attorney.
A statistical anomaly showing Abelardo Gomez, Carlos Masso and Omar Lucio receiving nearly identical numbers of mail-in votes, despite widely different vote totals, prompted then Election Administrator Roger Ortiz to say: "They must have all used the same poliquera or group of group of politiqueras."
After losing a bitter battle in the Democratic Primary to eventual DA Luis Saenz, Masso returned to the private sector with a close connection to the 8-liner industry. His nephew Rich Masso, along with Attorney Rick Zayas fell prey to Saenz much-publicized "Operation Bishop," a political, as much as law enforcement operation to appease Bishop Daniel Flores, who had complained that 8-liners were depleting the Catholic collection plates in Cameron County.
We stroll down memory lane with pictures from 2012:

Vicenta Guajardo Verino, Tomasita Ramirez Chavez, Facunda Banda Garcia, Bernice Garcia, Sara Virginia Perales, Margarita Rangel Ozuna are the politiqueras who go to trial on May 5th. Carlos Masso was representing Ozuna.

Wow..ozuna, garza, becerra and the ugliest rat castro all working for el "panzon" and he lost...what makes him think he can win this time against an incumbent. ..poor guy he is desperate now he has added a bunch of more lunatics to his bandwagon.
ReplyDeleteLuis Saenz is doing his job those who dislike him is because he has dismantled the groups of people breaking the law among them some elected officials !! Things are not over folks investigations are ongoing on and you know who you are ! They are coming for you bad guys it's over !!! So no matter what happens the law is the law and actions have consequences!! We are voting for our current district attorney!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, they are always coming, they just never get there. What politician has Saenz brought to justice? Didn't he lie to us about what he was going to do to the 8-liners? Where was he before the indictments came down on the corrupt group at the courthouse? I didn't hear him or any other lawyer speaking out and many of them must have known something was going on. They were happy to speak out once the (other) bad guys were arrested and their political influence was gone. They remind me of the cowardly lion in the Wizard of Oz. They are all willing to stand up for justice when there is no threat.
DeleteAnd Masso hopes to bring us LNG, pollute our land and waterways and ruin our views.
Nether of these candidates is worthy of support.
Not very different from that bully formerly with a badge John Chambers.
ReplyDeleteYou sound very much trolly? Did John do something to you . Sounds to me that John did something to you that makes ur comment seem illegitimate. Like it or not John cleaned up that tiny town . Secretary arrested for embezzlement, two council members arrested for illegally conducting a town meeting, various drug busts and seizures, worked with various agencies promoted training for all officers. So unless you were part of the corruption present I presume you were a victim for Corruption.
DeleteJohn will clean house starting with DA Luis Saenz !
Keep dreaming. JOHN CHAMBERS WILL NOT EVEN GET 2 PERCENT OF THE VOTE. AND, THAT 2 PERCENT WILL BE HIS CHINGOS OF KIDS.
DeleteHaha hahaha john is garbage
DeleteMasso go back to the rock you and your unwanted friends crawled from .. you have no Experience as a good lawyer because you Suck at it...
ReplyDeletePraying to get a third candidate to vote in for DA.
ReplyDeleteLuis Saenz is crooked as them all!! He uses his political position to favorly prosecute those against him. A politiqueria in La Feria was arrested for a 3 rd dwi and guess who got him off Luis Saenz! And he is supporting Victor Cortez and Luis Saenz and going around town here passing out Flyers for those two idiots!! Get rid of Saenz or we will all have to be fearful for our lives in Cameron County!
ReplyDeletewow he must be an excellent attorney !! he has my vote
DeletePuro masca rriatas!
ReplyDeleteFrank Perez is working for victor cortez. He got a DWI two months ago. He started supporting victor cortez after his arrest. His case was never filed by the District Attorney's office. That means they offered him help if he campaigned for victor cortez. victor and cortez are evil. Cortez and Saenz will bring the the heart beat of the cartel to cameron county.
ReplyDeleteSylvia Perez number one Masso supporter!!! And let's not forget her compadre Judge Mike trejo and Constable Diaz who worked under Cameron County Sheriff Conrado Cantu and where drinking buddy's. But yet they are Elected officials today yes we do need a 3rd person to run for District Attorney and get rid of our county's corruption once and for all.
