The Camarena Scholarships

The Enrique S. Camarena Educational Foundation

The Enrique S. Camarena Educational Foundation was founded to preserve and promote the sacrifices made by Special Agent “Kiki” Camarena as well as all law enforcement officers who have given their lives in fighting drug abuse. The foundation promotes drug-free education activities for our Nation’s youth. It has been nationally recognized that drug abuse is a self-destructive activity that also negatively impacts numerous lives, the educational process and our society. 

In 2005, the foundation established The Drug Abuse Education Scholarship Program in an effort to promote a discussion of drug-free lifestyles among our Nation’s youth. The annual scholarship program recognizes outstanding high school seniors who have exemplified the personal and educational lifestyles that promote success in the future as adults. The scholarship winners receive a $1,000 scholarship award for use in their college studies. 

The scholarship participants are evaluated on their participation in public or school service programs, their formal educational plans, their high school grade point average, two letters of recommendation as well as a written essay proposing an effective educational drug abuse prevention program for their school or their community.

Suspected Drug Cartel Gunmen Fatally Shot a U.S. Agent

Mexican federal police guard a U.S. Embassy vehicle after it came under fire by unknown gunmen on Highway 57 between Mexico City and Monterrey   Suspected drug cartel gunmen fatally shot a U.S. agent from El Paso, Texas, and wounded a second agent Tuesday as they drove on a heavily traveled federal highway in central Mexico, U.S. and Mexican officials said.U.S. officials said an investigation was under way to determine whether the agents were specifically targeted or were random victims of the escalating violence that has gripped the nation.


 They were driving a dark-colored SUV with diplomatic plates, officials said.A U.S. law enforcement official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the two agents were shot by drug traffickers as they approached an unofficial checkpoint thought to be manned by the paramilitary group known as the Zetas.

The traffickers were operating not far from a Mexican military checkpoint, the official said, and the two agents were probably unarmed. Their names were not released.

Investigators are looking into whether the assailants may have had inside information about the agents' route and schedule, the official said.The two wounded agents were airlifted by helicopter to a Mexico City hospital, where one of them later died.The incident is likely to deepen concerns in Washington about Mexico's deteriorating security.

Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, called the attack "the latest reminder of the grievous violence south of our border that must be stopped."

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano issued a statement saying she was "deeply saddened." She said the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were assigned to the ICE office in Mexico City and were driving from Mexico City to Monterrey when they were shot by unknown assailants.She said U.S. law enforcement agencies were working closely with Mexican authorities to capture the assailants.

"Let me be clear," Napolitano said. "Any act of violence against our ICE personnel - or any DHS personnel - is an attack against all those who serve our nation and put their lives at risk for our safety." She added, "We remain committed in our broader support for Mexico's efforts to combat violence within its borders."Mexico's Foreign Ministry issued a statement saying it "strongly condemns this grave act of violence and expresses solidarity with the U.S. government and the families of the victims."

The attack occurred on Federal Highway 57 in the state of San Luis Potosi, which borders Nuevo Leon and Tamaulipas, two states on the Texas border where much of the violence has been centered. The region is being disputed by two organized crime groups, the Zetas and their former employers, the Gulf cartel.Threats against U.S. officials working in Mexico are not uncommon, though with few exceptions U.S. personnel have been spared the savagery that has killed more than 35,000 people since President Felipe Calderon declared war on organized crime in late 2006.

A pregnant U.S. Consulate worker and her husband were killed in March in Ciudad Juarez as they were driving home to El Paso from a children's birthday party.Lesley A. Enriquez, 25, a consulate employee, and her husband, Arthur H. Redelf, 30, were shot in a daylight attack. An investigation into the killings is continuing, though a local drug gang was implicated in the shootings.In 1985, the U.S. shut down the border with Mexico after undercover U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agent Enrique "Kiki" Camarena was kidnapped, tortured and killed. Camarena had infiltrated Mexico's powerful Sinaloa cartel and was instrumental in bringing down a marijuana plantation worth an estimated $8 billion annually at the time.(Special contributor Lauren Villagran contributed to this report.)

"Measure L Mandates the Movement of Money"

By Gene Maddaus

The union that represents LAPD officers came out strongly today against Measure L, an item on the March 8 ballot that would set aside funding for the Los Angeles Public Library system.

In a statement, Los Angeles Police Protective League President Paul Weber said the measure "will create more problems than it solves" and could mean cuts to police, fire, parks and recreation, and street services.

Public Library

"Measure L simply mandates the movement of money from one pot to another and restricts its use," Weber said. "It does not solve any of the financial problems plaguing the City of Los Angeles."

The L.A. Public Library system took deep cuts in last year's budget, as documented in an L.A. Weekly cover story entitled "City of Airheads." The library system was forced to cut back service to five days a week, an unprecedented step.

​As a remedy, Councilman Bernard Parks proposed a charter amendment that would increase the percentage of property tax that automatically goes to the library system. The measure would take effect gradually over four years, and would restore full six-day service.

It would not raise taxes, which means that it would require cuts to other services paid for by the city's general fund. The measure would add $6 million to next year's deficit, and that figure would go up to at least $18 million by 2014.

Weber called the measure "ballot-box budgeting," a term generally used for state initiatives that tie the hands of the Legislature and make balancing the budget more difficult. 

"Voters are being asked to mandate city spending obligations without understanding their long-term budget impacts," Weber said. "Clearly, the proponents of Measure L prefer it that way. Sidestepping the city's budgeting process gives them an increase to library funding without the unpleasant and unpopular tax hikes needed to fund it, and without discussing how it would impact other city departments."

Bernard Parks

Parks, a former police chief, has been calling for a suspension of police hiring for several years, but has been unable to persuade the rest of the council to go along with him. Some have concluded that Measure L is his way of using a feel-good library measure to compel the council to cut the police budget.

In the exchange of comments this evening, the library measure seemed like a subplot in the long-standing feud between Parks and the police union.

Asked to respond to the LAPPL's opposition, the councilman's chief of staff, Bernard Parks Jr., said that it was "typical" of the union's "me-first" attitude.

"They're self-absorbed over there," he said. "If you give them a choice between themselves and children, they're going to choose themselves."

Parks Jr. noted that public safety accounts for 70% of the city's general fund. But for the union, he said, "70% of the budget isn't enough."

The LAPPL has endorsed Parks' opponent, Forescee Hogan-Rowles, in the March 8 election. In response to Parks Jr.'s remarks, Weber noted that Parks refused to meet with the union for an endorsement interview.

"The LAPPL endorsed Forescee Hogan-Rowles because like us, she believes that government's top obligation is public safety," Weber said. "The Mayor and the current Chief of Police correctly credited the historic lows in crime to years of dedicated work by LAPD officers and adequate public safety funding. We support candidates who share this point of view."

The City Council voted unanimously last fall to put Measure L on the ballot, and it has the support of other public-sector unions, including the Librarians' Guild. The measure is widely expected to pass, and it is not yet clear if the LAPPL will spend any of its political budget to oppose it.
