Two Deadbeat Democratic Candidates for District Attorney~Saenz Vs. Masso

Saenz and Masso Kissing and Making Up
After Bitter 2012 Democratic Primary
Those Cameron County voters who yearn for local government to abandon the cesspool of corruption, nepotism, voter fraud and tainted court cases, must throw up at the likely prospect that one of Carlos Masso or Luis V. Saenz will be the next Cameron County District Attorney.

It's not as if current District Attorney Saenz, utilizing his spotlight-craving Public Information Officer, Melissa Landin, hasn't talked a good game.  His office, through Landin's press releases and "briefings" have seemingly been one continuous infomercial, more flash than substance, or, as an old Texas cattleman might say, "all hat, no cattle."

"Operation Bishop," Saenz ballyhooed frontal attack on illegal 8-liners, prompted by Bishop Daniel Flores complaint that the machines drained Catholic collection plates, lost its luster when it was learned that some of the confiscated machines were not even destroyed, but merely sold for $100,000 to a company fronted by Masso's relatives, no less.


Saenz Supporter Herminia Becerra,
Cameron County's Most Notorious,
Yet Unprosecuted Politiquera
Saenz limp-wristed "prosecution" of  Ernie Hernandez, the so-called "head of the snake" of local political corruption, according to Saenz' 2012 Campaign Manager, Zeke Silva, sent the clear message that such political corruption is clearly tolerated in Cameron County.  Saenz' cowardly handling of Hernandez actually opens the door for Ol' Ernie to run for another tax dollar sucking political office.


Politiqueras Margarita Ozuna and Herminia Becerra,
Splitting Time Between Abelardo Gomez and
Carlos Masso Tents in 2012
Carlos Masso is not exactly what Cameron County needs either. Masso's explains his role in the squandering of $21,000,000 of taxpayer money at the Port of Brownsville for a so-called "Bridge to Nowhere" in a letter published  April 28, 2012 in Mean Mister Brownsville.  Essentially, Masso states, the Port of Brownsville directors settled with Dannenbaum for a mere $1 million to save the taxpayers from losing yet another $9
million.(Read Masso's convoluted explanation for yourself if you wish, but also please note the 21 comments below the article.)

During his 2012 run for District Attorney, Masso made no effort to even hide his close association with noted politiqueras Herminia Becerra and Margarita Ozuna.  They worked for him and when an indictment came for Margarita Ozuna, not surprisingly, he defended her in court.

  1. The Cameron County Mafia! It doesn't matter who you vote for, or for what position. They are all dirty and are all in it to benefit themselves and their Mafia buddies.

  2. Sad when there is no good candidate to vote for. Guess I'll just waste my vote, rather than vote for evil. These guys are not worthy of our votes.

  3. A vote for Masso is a vote for LNG. As a Navigation District commissioner he was among those that approved the leases for the LNG plants. For some reason he want us to look like the Houston ship channel and to experience all their very serious problems including pollution of the waterway and air and the resulting health issues. I own land near there. I bet it will increase my property values and I don't care. As for SPI, do you see people vacationing in or near the industrial zone in other cities? The view from any of our beaches will be chemical tanks and flare towers and the smell is unlikely to be very pleasant.
    As for Saenz, he will always take care of himself and his staff before he will take care of the electorate. As a pol. he knows you got to be good to the people that know your secrets.

  4. I wish a republican would be a candidate for this position, I will not be voting for this position. Hell no.. For another democrat I don't think so, all they have done is SHAMED OUR COMMUNITY TO THEIR BENEFIT.

    2. The republican chair keeps openly announcing for people who want to run for any open offices to contact her but probably because of that asshole Frank Whoriss being unsupportive of candidates for years and her being so new people aren't stepping up.

    3. The reason there isn't a republican candidate is because the republican chairperson morgan graham doesn't want one. Her husband works for Luis Saenz so she is protecting him.

  5. It is "Melissa Landin", not Melinda, Jim, if you are going to attack me, please have the courtesy of getting my name right.

  6. "All hat, no cattle?" Really? Go to the Courthouse one of these days, and look at all the domestic violence cases and child sexual assault cases that are being heavily prosecuted. Melissa isn't just doing PR for Saenz, she is much more than that. She is spreading the message that enough is enough, and assholes that beat people or assault children aren't going to get off lightly as they have in past administrations. Every billboard with a quote from a victim is helping start the conversation about issues children are seeing happening in their own families. I get you hate Saenz, Jim. We all get it. Time to give the man some credit. Whatever Saenz' reasons for raising awareness, he and Melissa have done a damn good job at it and the end result, victims receiving assistance, is no easy task. But they're getting it done. Keep up the great job, DAs Office!

  7. I'm glad Zeke Silva left the DA's office in time. He knew Luis Saenz backed off his promises to the voters and left. Sometimes you do what is best and not what is popular. He left with his head up. Melissa Zamora made sure Luis Saenz broke every promise to the voters by lying, self promotion, false headlines thinking people are stupid enough to believe the lies. New Flash Mellissa and Luis WE THE PEOPLE SEE RIGHT THRU YOUR DECEPTION.
