NEW LOGO OF COUNTY JUSTICE: "HALL OF YA 'STAS"

By Juan Montoya
Do you remember the hilarious skit in the 1970s by Richard Pryor called "Justice"
It's a joke about black men in prison. Pryor said: "You go down there looking for justice; that's what you find: just us."
Now some of my lawyer friends are saying that as a result of the ongoing investigation of judicial corruption triggered by the convictions of former 404th District Judge Abel Limas , former state representative Jim Solis, Port Isabel attorney Ray Marchan and the indictment of Cameron County District Attorney Armando Villalobos, the Cameron County Judicial wing has earned itself a new name.
"It's not the Hall of Justice anymore," one of them quipped. "It's now the Hall of 'Ya 'Stas," (or there you are as if handing someone money).
That sense of humor just goes to show that despite the slim pickings at the legal profession nowadays, there is some mean wit still being generated on the lawyers' lair on Harrison Street.
From what is emerging from the racketeering investigation it seems that there were greenbacks changing hands from the lobby of the judicial wing to Villalobos' bunker on the second floor and all the way to the top where District Clerk Aurora De la Garza's reigns over her domain.
"Everyone knew that you needed to grease some palms to get the wheels of justice turning," said another. "That's where the phrase 'Ya 'Stas' comes from. When an offer was made, money changed hands from one player to another and you'd say 'Ya 'Stas.' Then, they'd turn to the client and tell him 'Ya 'Stas.''
"There was 'Ya 'Stas' for everyone."
One can imagine the feds leading a lawyer away and him emulating Pryor with "Is it Something I Said?"

Hopefully the investigation of Aurora de la Garza continues in force. What has happened to the case against her clerk for stealing money from the child support funds, a function of Aurora's office. That case even caused Sheriff Omar "Sucio" to distance himself from Aurora. I always have thought Aurora looks like "The Penquin" (played by Danny DeVito) from the early Batman movies.
