Juárez, Chihuahua, Mexico - A missing report was filed for Abril Gissel Sánchez Saldaña, 7, who disappeared last Tuesday and a statewide amber alert was issued in Chihuahua. Saldaña who was last seen wearing a blue blouse and blue pants with white stripes, including tennis with rose and gray colors was located about four hours later after she disappeared. Authorities from the Juárez district attorney's office located Saldaña in the Campestre Virreyes neighborhood where she was last seen.

Apparently, Saldaña walked out from her home and her parents quickly filed a missing report when they discovered she had disappeared. Authorities questioned her parents to determine what led them to file a missing person report so quickly, according to El Diario.MX in Juárez. 

People continued to post her missing report on Facebook and has gone viral, despite that she has been located and reunited with her parents.

Juárez, Chihuahua, Mexico - On Sunday, a woman vigilante sent an e-mail to various local media and claimed that she killed several bus drivers last week. She signed the e-mail as Diana and admitted to killing bus drivers Roberto Flores Carrera, 45, on Wednesday at 7:45 a.m. and Freddy Zárate, 45, on Thursday at 8:25 a.m. Carrera was driving bus number 718 and Zárate bus number 744. 

The bodies were found in the buses last week, according to Juárez investigators. She also wrote that women working at the factory called la maquiladoras were being sexually violated in the early hours of the morning after they ride the bus home.

The city of Juárez is known for the hundreds of murdered women found at isolated areas. Between 1993 to 2013, more than 700 girls and women ages 14 and older have been kidnapped, raped, tortured,  murdered, dismembered and then dumped at rural areas.

In the e-mail, she wrote that for too long women have been targeted, raped and murdered.

More bus drivers will be targeted to take vengeance for what they have done to other women. Police say, she steps up on the bus and pulls out a handgun and then fatally shoots the bus driver. 

More Juárez police have been assigned to ride buses in an attempt to locate the vigilante. 

First Amendment Rights Violated By Milwaukee Police And LPOA, When Latinos Were Kicked Out From Mexican Fiesta

The Wisconsin Hispanic Scholarship Foundation Board expected to meet and discuss the expulsions of multiple people during August 23-25 from its annual Mexican Fiesta grounds after people had paid admission and no refunds were ever returned.

Milwaukee, WI - The Wisconsin Hispanic Scholarship Foundation, Inc., the Milwaukee Police Department, Latino Peace Officers Association (LPOA), Milwaukee Officers Alexander C. Ayala and Borst engaged in First Amendment rights violations when they kicked out people from the annual Mexican Fiesta 2013. The Police Department used its Intelligence Center information to deliberately profile (identify), discriminate and violate the First Amendment rights of certain people on the basis of what color of clothes they were wearing and tattoos once they had paid their admission into the festival grounds and then afterwards were kicked out. Police and the LPOA headed by Officer Ayala determined, identified and targeted people for the color of clothing they were wearing, including facial tattoos not in good taste for their family environment at the festival. The people targeted were stopped and then escorted out of the grounds without getting a refund. Those who refused to leave were threaten with arrest for disorderly conduct and trespassing. The profiling or identifying operation conducted by police has been used at the annual event for the last three years. The Latino victims who were profiled by the officers did no wrong doing at the festival other than dressed a certain way or looked different from the rest of the attendees. 

Officer Ayala explained, that they want to prevent any violence at the event, so they are kicking out anyone identified as a former, current or future gang member from attending the event. How is Officer Ayala determining who was, is a current or a future gang member in order to kick them out of the three day event? Ayala says, the Milwaukee Police Department Intelligence Center provides that information and once someone is identified as a gang member, that person is expelled and ban from the event. If the information used by Ayala is inaccurate, those kicked out from the event are just out of luck from ever being allowed back into the event. 

What police and Officer Ayala engaged over the weekend during Mexican Fiesta 2013 was a gross violation of people's First Amendment rights. The Fiesta incident went viral on Facebook (FB), which some FB users are pushing for a boycott of Mexican Fiesta in 2014 or until Fiesta organizers publicly apologize and its discriminatory policy is removed.

Last week, Mexican Fiesta told Telemundo 63 that they will discuss the issue at their next WHSF Board meeting. Police issued a statement to Telemundo 63, that they work with Fiesta and that organizers had a right to determine who can be allowed into their festival.

Citing several First Amendment prior cases, in 1990, LULAC 9900 who managed Mexican Fiesta was sued for banning the distribution of Satélite, a bilingual variety newspaper that featured on its front page a photo of Miss Mexican Fiesta 1990 in a one piece polka-dot swim suit, calling it in "bad taste."

The staff of Satélite were "forcibly removed" kicked out by police for distributing the newspaper inside the grounds. Satélite later filed a lawsuit. They claimed that their First Amendment rights were violated when Mexican Fiesta organizers barred them from distributing the paper at the festival in 1990. They also claimed that Maier Festival Park, which hosts other ethnic festivals during the summer, is public in nature and an appropriate place for the exercise of First Amendment rights.

In June 1992, Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge William D. Gardner ruled that the Summerfest grounds are a "public forum" where there is a First Amendment right to freedom of expression,  even when the grounds are occupied by an ethnic festival.

Gardner said, "City government created the grounds to be a place where the public could gather and experience the ethnic and cultural diversity of the community." The Mexican Fiesta attorney had argued that the organization was private and by leasing the grounds, it had discretion to decide what would be allowed on the grounds. Judge Gardner disagreed.

Mexican Fiesta paid Satélite $15,000 in an out-of-court settlement, after Judge Gardner's ruling. It was an important ruling because it was finally determined that the Summerfest grounds are a "public forum" where there is a First Amendment right to freedom of expression. 

In August 2003, three Milwaukee Outlaws filed a federal lawsuit against Summerfest claiming that they were arrested, cited for trespassing and kicked out of the grounds on July 2, 2003 by police for wearing their Outlaws motorcycle club colors. They claimed a First Amendment violation because they had paid their way in to the festival and once inside police cited them and then were kicked out for wearing their colors. The Summerfest grounds is city owned land and leased to the Milwaukee World Festival, Inc.

An attorney for the Outlaws and an attorney for Summerfest later agreed to allow the Outlaws dress how they like when attending events at Summerfest. Thus, eliminating the discrimination against wearing colors.

Milwaukee, WI - So far since Wednesday, Milwaukee Police haven't been fully using its Intelligence Center publicly to profile, discriminate and kick people (Harley bikers) out of the Summerfest grounds for no wrong doing during the Harley-Davidson 110th Anniversary,  according to inside sources.

Those victims were unlawfully targeted without providing any prove. They were kicked out from Fiesta and banned for ever without just cause and no refunds were ever given.
Milwaukee Police, the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Department and feds were gathering more intelligence about he Hells Angels, Milwaukee Outlaws and other affiliated 1%'s considered outlaws or gangs associated with major criminal enterprises during the 110th H-D Anniversary, according to feds.

Seven officers, including agents were spotted taking photos undected by crowds, three of them had high tech cameras while the other four backed them up. When spotted they quickly fled back into festival on Brady.
