Presentation of Colors by Raul Yzaguirre Schools for Success Color Guard

  • Founded in 1996, the Raul Yzaguirre School for Success (RYSS) was one of the first open-enrollment charter schools approved by the Texas State Board of Education. By establishing RYSS, the Tejano Center for Community Concerns worked to provide a college preparatory educational experience for children of the center’s surrounding neighborhoods in southeast Houston. Today, RYSS continues its commitment to the success of every student, regardless of his/her academic or economic background, by offering a superior college preparatory experience, with the goal of having every student enter and graduate from a four-year university.
  • Since their modest beginnings in a small rental facility with an enrollment of 100 students, they have successfully expanded their operation and their reach to a combined enrollment to more than 1,500 at seven campuses.

Man gets 45 years for murdering brother in law

0

A Spring Branch man has been sentenced to 45 years in prison after being convicted of murder for gunning down his brother-in-law after a scuffle, Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg announced Thursday.

Jordan Jamal Alvarado, 27, was convicted by a jury of fatally shooting 33-year-old Keith Johnson in a parking lot of a northwest Harris County apartment complex on July 20, 2018.

“It happens all too often that someone gets mad, grabs a gun and starts shooting and, like in this case, murders someone in their own family,” Ogg said. “Instead of just walking away and staying away, this defendant destroyed a family.”

Assistant District Attorney Chadwick Scott, who prosecuted the case with ADA Michael Abner, said family members mourned the loss of “two brothers.”

“These two families kind of grew up together,” Scott said. “They were very close. One witness testified that it was like he was losing two brothers.”

Scott said the two men got into an argument that turned into a physical fight in the parking lot of the complex at 10580 Hammerly Blvd. After a brief scuffle, Alvarado walked away. He returned minutes later with a gun and shot Johnson once in the chest.

“Simply losing a fistfight doesn’t give you the right to kill someone,” Scott said.

Houston Police investigated the crime 

Alvarado was convicted after a four-day jury trial that ended Wednesday. A visiting judge sentenced him to 45 years. He faced a maximum of life in prison.

“We thank the jurors for their service to the community,” Ogg said.

Harris County Attorney Christian D. Menefee’s Statement on Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s Executive Order Banning Coronavirus Vaccine Mandates

0

Harris County Attorney Christian D. Menefee issued the following statement.

“The Governor’s latest executive order banning private businesses from keeping their employees and customers safe is shameful. And we know that this is mostly a political bluster designed to create confusion and subject businesses to burdensome lawsuits, which can only slow down our economic recovery.

I encourage Texas business owners who believe in science and the rule of law to sue Governor Abbott and join Harris County and other cities and school districts fighting back against his overreach. We must keep pushing these cases forward so the Texas Supreme Court can rein in Governor Abbott’s illegal executive orders.”

About the Harris County Attorney’s Office
Christian D. Menefee was elected as County Attorney for Harris County in November 2020. His office represents the largest county in Texas in all civil legal matters, including lawsuits.

El Consejo Estatal de Protección Civil informó que no se registraron grandes afectaciones a la infraestructura de carreteras ni pérdidas humanas, solo se tienen árboles caídos, postes, desprendimientos de techos de lamina, crecientes en arroyos e inundaciones.

El huracán “Pamela”, categoría uno, que tocó tierra en la parte sur del estado dejo sin servicio eléctrico a pobladores de cuatro municipios, interrumpió el tránsito de la maxipista Mazatlán-Durango por la caída de un talud, provocó la caída de árboles, estructuras, palmeras, techos de restaurantes, casas de madera e inundaciones y paralizó el transporte aéreo.

La fuerza del fenómeno natural, que entró a tierra por el municipio de San Ignacio y se degrado a tormenta tropical, tuvo vientos de hasta 120 kilómetros por hora y fuertes lluvias, por lo que en Mazatlán 260 personas fueron evacuadas por inundaciones en los sectores de Jacarandas, Toreo, López Mateo y Sánchez Celis donde el agua subió medio metro.

Se hizo notar que con las medidas de prevención que se asumieron 48 horas de anticipación que se tomaron en el seno del Consejo Estatal de Protección Civil que presidió el gobernador Quirino Ordaz Coppel y la coordinadora Nacional de Protección Civil, Laura Velázquez Alzúa, los efectos de “Pamela” fueron mínimos.

El huracán categoría uno generó lluvias de 138 milímetros principalmente en Mazatlán, donde se tuvo viviendas inundadas, caída de árboles, vidrios quebrados de negocios y edificios, postes de energía eléctrica derribados, desprendimientos de techos de tabla roca, entre otros.

Pobladores del medio rural y urbano de los municipios de Cosala, Elota, San Ignacio y Mazatlán sufrieron durante la madrugada la suspensión del suministro de energía eléctrica, al caer varias líneas de conducción y postes por la fuerza del viento que alcanzó los 120 kilómetros por hora.
