Cruz Receives 115 Months In Federal Drug Case
Raymundo Diaz Cruz, a former Brownfield resident, was sentenced in Lubbock federal court to 115 months for distributing under 500 grams of cocaine and aiding criminal activity. The ruling follows a four year investigation yielding multiple sentences for others tied to the operation, with Cruz already serving a DWI sentence that will delay federal prison start. Cruz faces 7-10 years on the DWI before federal custody, no parole on the drug sentence, but possible good time.

Rumsfeld and 9 11 echoes mark three years of war
In a reflection on the third anniversary of the September 11 attacks, the piece links Secretary Rumsfeld’s guarded approach to national security with the prolonged wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. It notes over 1,000 American troops dead, praises leadership, and urges national unity and prayer for victims. It also critiques international help as insufficient and emphasizes American civilian resolve.
