The zany crew over at the Cameron County Tax Assessor-Collector's Office won El Rrun-Rrun's 1st Annual Halloween Costume Contest with this apropos gang photo of them dressed as Cameron County inmates being rounded up by a law enforcement sheriff dudette.
Our judges thought the costumes, which refer to the recent spate of arrests, indictments (and dismissals) of their chief Tony Yzaguirre, Jose Mireles Jose Garza and a few underlings by the Cameron County District Attorney's Office, were in moderately good taste and scored the top marks for creativity.
So far, Yzaguirre has prevailed in court over a change in venue motion which will move his trial on more than a score of charges contained in the indictments. Three of his fellow indictees saw their charges dismissed.
Rumors in social media say that the workers at the tax office have grown so jaundiced of DA Office investigators coming in and questioning them continually at all hours of the day trying to unearth evidence of Yzaguirre's alleged wrongdoing that they feel that they all could get indicted anytime.
This photo appeared in a popular Facebook page and was kindly sent to us by one of our seven readers.
Someone pointed out that during the recent primary election for DA between Carlos Masso and DA Luis V. Saenz, the eventual winner made much of Mexican authorities inviting him to instruct their investigators in the finer points of prosecution.
But the recent bad streak of losses in the courts on capital murder, kidnapping, aggravated assaults, the dismissals of cases, and even Yzaguirre's change of venue is giving the DA a black eye.
Some wag noted that perhaps Saenz had picked up something from the Mexican prosecutors himself.
"In the U.S., you're innocent until proven guilty," he said. "Maybe Saenz picked up a little from their system and now we're all guilty until proven innocent."
P.S. The tax office staff gets a lifetime subscription to El Rrun-Rrun. Congratulations!

this conduct is not acceptable we the tax payers pay them to do their job not to mock any government agency , where is the chief deputy ? those employees should be investigated . Mr. Yzaguirre you just lost my vote and my trust.
LOL
^ No one cares about your opinion. Let them have their fun and worry about your own damn business!
Wawawawa is all i hear
Did the staff have a hard time obtaining those orange jumpsuits or did they just borrow them from their friends next door at the county jail.
Ponganse a trabajar. A no. Mejor we'll pay you overtime on Saturday to do the work you were suppose to do during the week. This way everyone will be happy.
Anonymous 5:52 lighten the fuck up !! I am proud that the employees of the tax office are able to find humor in such deplorable acts taken against them by the hands of a vindictive shitty DA. These employees have been harassed for nearly a year by Luis Saenz's investigator to try and dig up dirt to help with the case against Mr. Yzaguirre these idiots forgot how to go about prosecuting cases when they started using unethical tactics to go after innocent men. I hope all involved in trying to harm innocent people find there day in hell because I personally know what these evil no good for nothing BASTARDS are capable of. POWER in the wrong hands hurts many.....stop corruption get Luis and his buddies investigated by the DOJ and put them in a cell and send them to hell
I want Tony Yzaguirre to win but if not I would like it to be Randy Gonzales the write in. Anyone but Leo.
The entire tax office should be fired and replaced with new employees. Yzaguirre belongs in jail with Limas and Villalobos.
Some in that office should be somewhere to wear those orange jumpers every day....be in jail with their boss.
HATERS GONNA HATE! POOR SORE LOSERS! IF YOU KNEW THE REAL FACTS YOU WOULDN'T BE HERE TALKING SHIT! YOU ALL WITH NEGATIVE COMMENTS ARE MORE THAN LIKELY AS CORRUPT AS THE DA AND HIS OFFICE IS! .|.
I loved it !!! Great job on the costumes and win...
Pinche gente del valle airways wanting to rain on someone's fun. Get a life and let others enjoy theirs.
Puros tranzas like their boss and former co-worker Menchaca. Pura caca en ese edificio. It should be torn down like the Rubio house because of all the horrific shit that has gone on inside.
Yes torn down with the f*&king DA in it. Pinche bastard
