Court Watch Refelction by Brother Bede Baldry, FSC
Aug. 12, 2009
This was interesting today. I got to talk to some attorney's before and then went it. They did not use the tv but actually bought people in. I was there in the afternoon. One attorney said Judge Katsivalis tries hard. This day there where about 18 from Mexico, 2 from Korea, 1 from Columbia, Nigeria and other places.
They needed a translator for the two from Korea. The woman was there by herself. The man had a lawyer. How do you get a lawyer in jail was my question.

Reflections from the Borderlands
A Reflection by Tracy Hughes, Volunteer Partner with United Church of Christ Volunteer Ministries at BorderLinks in Tucscon, AZ (June 26, 2009)
This morning at 6am I left South Side Presbyterian church for my first Samaritan Patrol. These patrols are held by a group with that exact name with the mission of giving direct care to migrants in the Sonora Desert of Arizona. We have packs of food, bottles of water, Gatorade or other forms of electrolytes, socks, shoes, hats and basic medical supplies.
Today we covered quite a large area. We took a loop out of Tucson and ended up on Arivaca Highway and Interstate 19. Well, those are not all of the roads we took. We did get back to Tucson at 1pm.
