Mayor Emanuel Announces New Partnership With Secretary of State to Strengthen Enforcement Against Illegal Party Bus Operators
One year later, enforcement proves successful deterrent to crime on party buses
Mayor’s Press Office 312.744.3334 email@example.com
Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Secretary of State Jesse White today joined the Department of Business Affairs and Consumer Protection (BACP) and Chicago Police Department (CPD) to announce an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with the Illinois Secretary of State (SOS) to increase the city’s capacity to crack down on illegal party bus operators and protect Chicagoans and visitors. While Chicago’s new rules have set clear standards for party bus operators in Chicago, the IGA will support the city’s ability to enforce on operators registered outside the city, but traveling in Chicago.
“Party buses, like all of Chicago’s vast entertainment options, must support public safety, not work against it.” said Mayor Rahm Emanuel, “With a new partnership with the Secretary of State and continued enforcement, we will build on our efforts throughout the summer to keep residents and visitors safe."
The IGA aims to coordinate party bus enforcement across city and state agencies. The IGA will:
- Expand BACP access to SOS driver and vehicle databases: This agreement will provide increased access for additional BACP employees to look up vehicle plates, VIN numbers and driver’s license numbers in real time – all critical information to conduct investigations.
- Establish BACP access to Driving Record Abstracts: To support real-time enforcement efforts, the BACP enforcement team will have expanded access to view driver abstracts, a three-year record of all moving violation convictions, accident involvement reports and other actions that result in license suspensions, revocations or other disqualifications. This will allow BACP investigators to determine if charter-sightseeing vehicle drivers have a valid Commercial Driver’s License passenger endorsement, which is required to operate such a vehicle.
- Create a Party Bus Safety Task Force: The City and SOS will establish a Party Bus Safety Task Force, including CPD, BACP, SOS, OEMC, the Illinois Department of Transportation and Illinois State Police. This Task Force will share important information, data and best practices on enforcement to increase public safety throughout the State.
“I want to commend Mayor Emanuel for championing the party bus ordinance and Superintendent Johnson for cracking down on violators,” said Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White. “I’m pleased to work with the city of Chicago to improve the safety and security of party buses on our roads.” One year after the city’s tougher party bus ordinance went into effect, CPD and BACP continue to enforce the new ordinance to help keep Chicagoans safe. Since the ordinance went into effect, police have made 11 illegal weapons and narcotics arrests under the new rules. At the same time, gun violence and drug crimes related to party buses have dropped throughout the city – making for a safer city and an improved consumer experience. In 2016, there were six shooting incidents on or associated with party buses while in 2017, the year the ordinance went into effect, the number dropped by half, to three. Through June 1, 2018, there has been one shooting incident associated with party buses.
“Everyone has a role to play to make Chicago safer and stronger,” said Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson. “Today's agreement is the latest example of the collaboration and partnership between agencies to reduce violence in our city and create a culture of accountability for those who choose not to abide by society's rules.”
This past weekend, CPD and BACP executed a joint mission aimed at curbing problem operators in the Wrigleyville area. On Friday night June 1, CPD officers in the 19th District worked with BACP enforcement to crack down on illegal party bus operators. This resulted in 32 citations and two cease and desist orders for being unlicensed, not registering properly with the City and not being in compliance with critical security protocols called for in the party bus ordinance.
“We are committed to expanding our partnership with City and State agencies to ensure party bus businesses traveling into Chicago are safe,” said BACP Commissioner Rosa Escareno. “Over the past year, BACP and Police enforcement efforts have made great strides to enhance the safety of our residents and visitors. These new partnerships will embolden our safety efforts to ensure party bus operators traveling into the city meet our safety standards. If they don’t, we will now have the resources to find them and stop them.”
Since June 1, 2017, when the city implemented the new rules under an ordinance championed by Mayor Emanuel, regulators have issued the following enforcement:
- 260 total tickets issued (125 in 2017, 135 in 2018) to 37 different companies
- 36 total cease and desist orders (including two over the weekend)
- $130,650 in fines levied since June 2017 (latest fines from weekend enforcement not yet levied)
In March 2017, Mayor Emanuel introduced the party bus ordinance to crack down on illegal party buses that operate in the city and increase safety requirements for licensed bus operators. The strengthened rules improve safety by requiring party bus licensees to provide each passenger with a summary of acts prohibited on buses, which include unlawful possession of a firearm or controlled substance, security guard if alcohol is present or if the vehicle makes multiple stops. Additionally, the new ordinance requires clearly identifiable signage on licensed large charter/sightseeing vehicles to ensure any buses operating without a license are easy to identify and shut down.
Consumers who want to verify whether a party bus is lawful can visit the “Public Passenger Vehicle License” database on the City of Chicago data portal at https://data.cityofchicago.org. If the vehicle is not listed on the city’s portal, residents may request verification from the charter bus company. For more information about public vehicle licensing, residents can be directed to firstname.lastname@example.org.

The Canadian duo Pale Sky make us remember heavy metal, screamo, and metallic hardcore with their insanely cool new single “Oceania.”
Watch the video here:
“‘Oceania’ is a song that points its crosshairs at the world elite, and their failure to prioritize the betterment of society over their fetishized addiction to the illusion of limitless growth. Due to their careless selfishness we are witnessing firsthand the long-anticipated fracture of society.” explains McGraw to Scorpion Ltd.

Just when it seemed like Ram couldn’t get any more extreme it released the TRX Sandblast edition. Now Hennessey has taken one of those very special trucks and made it into a 1,000-hp Mammoth. In this film, the crew does some of the most enjoyable-looking validation testing we’ve ever heard of.
It’s not as if the Ram 1500 TRX needed anything on top of what it came with from the factory. The supercharged V8 under the hood is good for 702 hp (523 kW) and the special Sandblast edition adds a unique finish, 18-inch beadlock-capable wheels, and a panoramic sunroof. It’s the most exceptional of all the extreme trucks that Ram makes.
Hennessey turned things up to 11 though, giving the truck 1,012 horsepower (754 kW) and 969 lb-ft (1312 Nm) of torque. That’s the output of the company’s top-tier Mammoth package. It has all of the supporting modifications it’ll need to build that much power for years to come including high-flow fuel injectors, upgraded spark plugs, a heavy-duty supercharger belt, and more.
Read More: Can Hennessey’s Mammoth TRX Out-Tug Three Bowler Defenders?
Hennessey even offers a two-year or 24,000-mile limited warranty along with a three-year or 36,000-mile powertrain warranty. Part of why the company can do that is that it does validation tests just like the one seen here. Of course, with a vehicle like the Mammoth, testing it on the pavement isn’t going to be enough.
That’s why the crew only spends part of their time on the tarmac. They put those valuable seconds to good use though as they reach 110 mph (177 km/h) multiple times before going in search of dirt. Once there, it’s clear that the Mammoth is quite happy on either surface. In fact, this Mammoth Sandblast edition has additional off-road equipment.
That includes heavy-duty front and rear bumpers, auxiliary LED lighting, 20-inch wheels, all-terrain tires, and a leveling kit. Hennessey says that it’ll build a maximum of 200 and each one will get a serialized engine bay plaque so that owners will know where in the order their Mammoth was made. Pricing hasn’t been announced but interested parties can contact Hennessey directly.

If you walk into a supermarket and grab a salad for lunch, there’s a good chance, it was made here.
Irwindale is known for many things: the speedway, a brewery – and yes, mountains of rock.
If you’ve had dreams of becoming the next Mario Andretti, a spin around the track at more than 100 miles per hour could be as close as Irwindale.
When it comes to making beer, it’s a 24/7 operation at the Miller Coors brewery in Irwindale.
The City of Irwindale has officially dropped its public nuisance complaint against the hot sauce maker after local residents said the factory was creating an unbearable chili odor.
Officials from Texas Monday toured the Sriracha plant in Irwindale in an attempt to lure the business to the Lone Star state.

David Paul Fraijo, 36, is charged with five felony counts, including kidnapping to commit another crime, sexual battery by restraint and assault under color of authority.
The discussion at Wednesday night’s Irwindale City Council meeting resulted in delaying the decision of whether or not to close the Huy Fong Foods Inc. facility, which some say has become a public nuisance.
A decapitated body was discovered Thursday near a riverbed in Irwindale.
The makers of the popular Sriracha hot sauce will be put on trial this fall for the apparently offensive odors its factory emits in the city of Irwindale.
City leaders held a public hearing Wednesday night to discuss the complaints that keep being leveled against the Sriracha hot sauce factory in South Los Angeles.

Lioncor set to secure over €40m from sale of Chatham House
European Parliament agrees to purchase new Dublin city HQ from Irish developer
A computer-generated image of the “House of Europe” on Chatham Street in Dublin city centre
While the deal for the Dublin city centre property has yet to be completed, the Irish developer, which is headed up by John Maxwell, is in the process of delivering a new six-storey building on Chatham Street which will be occupied by the European Commission’s representation and European Parliament liaison.
Having purchased Chatham House for a reported €10.6 million in 2019, Lioncor looks to be in line for a significant return on its original investment even after the estimated €20 million cost of developing the EU’s new Dublin premises is factored in.
The “House of Europe”, as it will be known, will extend to a total area of 3,065sq m (33,000sq ft). Some 1,425sq m (15,338sq ft) of the building will be given over to office use on the second, third, fourth and fifth floors, while the remainder of the accommodation will be devoted to a visitors’ centre known as the “Europe Experience”. This is set to include several multimedia stations and a 360-degree cinema at basement level which will allow visitors to experience a plenary session of the parliament or take part in a role-play game as a member of the parliament or as an EU commissioner.
The EU parliament’s decision to move its Dublin offices to Chatham Street is understood to stem from its wish to base itself closer to the city centre to be in a better position to promote the European project. The House of Europe, or Chatham House as it was known previously, is located just metres from Grafton Street and the Westbury Hotel while the commission’s representation and parliament liaison office are currently situated on Mount Street.
Prior to its acquisition by Lioncor, the Chatham House site had been sold previously in 2003 to a company that formed part of developer Bernard McNamara’s empire. It is believed that Mr McNamara spent €12.7 million acquiring the landmark 0.05 hectare (0.13 acre) property including purchase costs. Following the property market’s collapse Nama appointed a receiver over the site in 2011.
Apart from its involvement in the Chatham House development, Lioncor is best known as one of Ireland’s biggest house builders. Established in 2018, the company’s current portfolio of sites gives it the capacity to deliver in excess of 10,600 new homes nationally over the coming years.
In Dublin alone, Lioncor owns prime apartment sites in Ballsbridge, Blackrock, Dundrum and Cherrywood, and is set to lead the delivery of the 3,500 residential units being planned as part of the redevelopment of the former Irish Glass Bottle site in Ringsend.


For the past four weeks, my peers and I have been completing the Post-Production on 3 episodes of an online series - 'Grimdustries'.
It was something different for me, as I had never previously worked on an online series. I liked being a part of the final stages of a long creative process for the film students - it felt like a real collaboration between our cohorts.
I worked closely with the film students throughout the project, having been the audio 'producer' for the series. I participated in much of the lead up - pre-production communication and organisation - and was at close contact with the film crew throughout. It was interesting for me working with them; seeing how much work they put into every aspect of planning, filming, technical and creative decision-making and even marketing and budgeting. It meant that I felt invested when it came to the audio students' job - I wanted it to go well and do the filmies' time and effort justice.
It was great to have been in producer role - I do like the communication side of team work; managing groups of people and keeping check of tasks. I did feel though that I was spending more time contacting people, mediating and relaying information than taking part in the technical side of things - and because I had responsibility outside of the technical tasks I tended to leave that to others. Which meant I didn't do as much as I would have liked. But there were very apt people completing that work anyway, so it was all good.
One disappointing aspect of the project was that when it came to our part, there were many people who sat out - which was a little frustrating. It would have been cool to have everyone invested and taking part (even if just for creative input, seeing as it's difficult to have more than one/two people driving the console). I understand that, being the end of trimester, people were busy and had quite a lot to do, but we all were! And unfortunately it meant that some of us had to put in more work to support the lack of dedication from others. Despite that, I think it went well, and, though more time would have been great (possibly outside of the real crunch-time of the trimester), I think we did produce great sounding episodes.
It was very cool experiencing the project start to finish, where all the parts (with the many people involved) came together to create an online series! I was very happy for the filmies that their original concept was a final product. They are planning to re-shoot and re-produce the series, so when the time comes for more post-production it'll be good to again get on board (and maybe get on the desk a little more).

Fat is a major metabolic fuel and is the predominant fuel utilized by most tissues during periods of fasting and during intake of high fat diets. Research in the last two decades has focused on signals (notably, the hormone leptin) derived from stored fat, while the mechanisms through which circulating fats may alter food intake have been neglected. Yet circulating fatty acids have the inherent potential to influence food intake and other homeostatic functions acutely and therefore may be of special significance in controlling onset and size of daily meals. One important control of feeding by fatty acids is known as the lipoprivic control, a stimulatory control of feeding evoked experimentally by drugs such as 2-mercaptoacetate (MA) that block fatty acid oxidation. Despite being well accepted, the underlying mechanisms of this control are poorly understood. Although it is known to be dependent on vagal sensory neurons, the sites of action, mechanisms of action and central pathways through which MA evokes food intake are not known. In this application, we examine mechanisms underlying lipoprivic control of feeding. It has been assumed until now that this control of feeding arises entirely from reduced fatty acid oxidation. However, we found recently that MA, the drug most commonly used to study lipoprivic control, may also have fatty acid receptor blocking effects at G-protein coupled receptors (GPR40 and/or GPR120) that are independent of fat oxidation.
Specific Aim 1 examines this potential mechanism of MA using calcium imaging in various tissues, including cultured cell lines known to express these receptors and GPR40 and GPR120 knockout mice. Using in vivo approaches, Specific Aim 2 examines the possibility that MA stimulates feeding in part by altering secretion of gut hormones that influence hunger and satiety, including MA's possible interaction with GPR40 and 120 in these effects.
Specific Aim 3 addresses the poorly understood central pathways for control of feeding by MA, focusing on the orexigenic peptides, melanin concentrating hormone (MCH) and galanin, the only peptides so far known to be activated by MA. Results of the proposed experiments may be paradigm shifting with respect to our understanding of lipoprivic control of food intake and the broad spectrum of participation of free fatty acid receptors in this control. I addition, some results may have translational significance for diabetes, where beta cell GPR40 is already a target for drug development.
Most recent research on control of food intake by fat has focused on the role of signals from stored fat. Using in vivo and in vitro approaches we focus on lipoprivic control of feeding and investigate mechanisms by which circulating free fatty acids are detected by peripheral mechanisms that control feeding.

A peaceful weekend retreat!
This was our second stay, and it was just as delightful as the first! The owners are so accommodating, and the house (and pool!) so relaxing. We will certainly be back again.
Everything we needed. Nicer than expacted
Quiet and private. Tucked away on a cul de sac and a short drive to attractions. Helpful owner. Looking forward to staying again.
House was very clean, tastefully decorated and pool was amazing!
We will definitely rent this the next time we come to Bay St Louis
This is the cutest house ever. It was very comfortable and clean. The pool in the backyard was great. Thanks Jill for everything, we had a great time. Hopefully, one day we will be back.
My daughter and I stayed here for a quick weekend getaway to celebrate the end of summer. The house was absolutely perfect! The owners were very responsive before the trip, and there were even snacks in the cupboard and waters in the fridge. We spent almost half of our time in the pool, which was so relaxing. We went out for an early dinner and a stroll on the beach only minutes away. Anything you need is close by. It was the perfect weekend from start to finish. We will definitely be back!
We loved the pool and spent most of our time swimming and exploring.

Regardless, I painted all weekend and I love the color. I’m not sure if it will show in the picture, but it is a very tomato red. Now I just need a dining room table.

Insulating liquids Measurement of relative permittivity, dielectric dissipation factor (tan) and d.c. resistivity
|Publication Date:||1 February 2004|
|ICS Code (Insulating oils):||29.040.10|
|ICS Code (Other standards related to electricity and magnetism):||17.220.99|
This International standard describes methods for the determination of the dielectric dissipation factor (tan δ), relative permittivity and d.c. resistivity of any insulating liquid material at the test temperature.
The methods are primarily intended for making reference tests on unused liquids. They can also be applied to liquids in service in transformers, cables and other electrical apparatus. However the method is applicable to a single phase liquid only. When it is desired to make routine determinations, simplified procedures, as described in Annex C, may be adopted.
With insulating liquids other than hydrocarbons, alternative cleaning procedures may be required.

Dungeon Siege sequel begins later
Chris Taylor's RPG sequel was delayed yesterday, as revealed by the dating on the official site, which informs us that Dungeon Siege 2 will now not be released until Spring 2005. The Gas Powered Games developed sequel was to be released 'sometime' in 2004 originally, though no reason has been offered for the slippage.
Like the much-lauded original, DS2 will be published once again by Microsoft, and promises the same simple controls, hack-n-slash combat, but with a deeper plotline, and more complex fighting. The new story is also rather more epic, pitting players in a struggle against a newly awoken evil which threatens the second age of man.
More as we get it.

The Morning Report
Get the news and information you need to take on the day.
The last day anyone heard from Luis Alberto Antonio Armenta he was heading to Balboa Park.
Luis visited the park often to spend time with friends, walk his dog, or simply because being there evoked pleasant childhood memories. It was the first place he visited after arriving in the United States. Luis was 11 years old then, in a strange country, and didn’t know a lick of English, but he was excited for his new life, his mom said.
Alberta Armenta, his mother, looked through photos of Luis on an afternoon in February at the family’s Mount Hope home. She found one of him in Balboa Park with a smirk on his face and an arm wrapped around his father’s neck. Alberta, speaking in Spanish, said Luis would often tell her, “Do you remember, Bertita? That’s where we first went.”
She smiled then looked away.
On Friday, May 28, 2021, a friend found Luis’ body inside his parked car in Hillcrest. He was lying face down on the passenger seat with his face on the floorboard and his feet over the headrest, according to a police report. He was missing a shoe and some of his personal belongings.
Three days later, the Medical Examiner ruled it an accidental death from a meth overdose. But the circumstances surrounding Luis’ death, and clues discovered by the family, have haunted them since. They feel the police did not thoroughly investigate or follow leads that could have provided them answers. They believe the police wrote off Luis’ death as an overdose, without concern for finding if he was with someone at the time of his death who could have prevented it, or more importantly, be held accountable.
A former San Diego detective who reviewed details of the case at Voice’s request said the body’s position and missing personal belongings, especially the right shoe, should have raised red flags – at least enough for police officers on the scene to impound the car and go through his phone records.
While all those points concern the family, it’s a note that appeared days later that they find most disturbing. The note was left at a small memorial put up where he was found.
It reads: “This man was murdered ask the blue house!”
He Was a Dreamer
Luis was born on Sept. 5, 1989, in Veracruz, Mexico, to Alberta Armenta and Feliciano Antonio. The pair raised their four children, three girls and Luis, in a devout Christian household.
When they lived in Veracruz, Feliciano Antonio was robbed at gunpoint by two men while he was delivering sodas to a store. He filed a police report so the men would get arrested, but when they didn’t, he feared they would hurt him for reporting the robbery, so he left Mexico and moved to San Diego.
Nine months later, Alberta Armenta and Luis followed, and later the rest of the family.
When Luis was a little boy, he sang in the family’s church choir, loved helping his mom with chores and always made sure his appearance was well kept. He had a close relationship with his mom throughout his life. He made her coffee in the morning and sang her made-up songs.
“He was very playful, intelligent, kind and responsible,” she said.
Luis had big dreams, she said, but as he got older his legal status weighed heavily on him. Alberta Armenta, Feliciano Antonio and their four children were living in the country illegally at the time.
He dreamt of becoming a mechanical engineer and buying his mother a new car. His legal status was like a dark shadow hanging over those dreams, until relief arrived from the Obama-era program where the United States provided unauthorized youth a legal avenue to work in the United States, with a program called Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA.
Alberta Armenta said Luis felt DACA would help him get ahead. He graduated with an associate degree from Cuyamaca College and later enrolled at the University of California, Riverside.
Amari Jordan, a friend, said he was the kind of person who lit up a room with his personality and charm. He loved singing at the top of his lungs, and had a lot of friends. He liked to be the life of the party, Jordan said.
“It was liberating to be around Luis in a way,” she said, adding that he could be flamboyant and wasn’t afraid to be himself around people. He was gay and expressive about his sexuality with friends, though he never came out to the family.
Alberta Armenta said it was likely because he was afraid his dad would be upset. But she knew.
As he got older, Luis distanced himself from the Apostolic Christian Church the family attended. Alberta Armenta said he told her it was because he smoked marijuana and felt conflicted with how that clashed with the church’s values.
“He said, ‘I can’t go to church anymore, I can’t act like a saint when I’m not,’ and I told him that’s OK all I want is for you to be with me,” she said.
After graduating from community college, Luis moved to Riverside to study at UCR, but in 2018 he dropped out. Alberta Armenta said he never told her why, but she knew that he was disappointed that he wasn’t going to graduate.
“He was sad, and he was apologetic … he would say, ‘I really wanted to graduate and put that diploma in your hands,’” she said.
He worked at a couple of retail stores in Riverside until the pandemic hit, then he moved back to San Diego to work for his oldest sister’s company.
The family was glad to have him back. He loved to spend time with them and take pictures at gatherings. Sometimes he would leave to hang out with friends during holiday celebrations, but he always made sure to return home for dinner, Alberta Armenta said.
“En familia nos divertíamos mucho,” she said, saying that as a family they always had fun.
His death has been hard on all of them, especially his mom.
That’s why his sister Sandy Antonio Armenta said she feels she must hide her grief about her brother’s death.
‘My Friend Is Passed Out in the Car’
On Wednesday, May 26, Luis’ older sister Fabiola Antonio spoke with him about a meeting they had scheduled for the next day. But Luis never showed up.
The family grew worried, especially Alberta Armenta, who was used to speaking with her son every day. On Thursday night, the family drove to his home but didn’t see his car in the driveway. Alberta Armenta knew Luis planned to go away for the weekend with friends, but she still found it odd he had not checked in.
The family called his friend Nada Boutros, who said she spoke to him on Wednesday, and he told her he was going to Balboa Park, but she didn’t hear from him again.
In a phone interview Boutros said she was worried about Luis and had unsuccessfully tried to locate him using the app Find my iPhone. The pair were close friends and, in the past, had agreed to share their locations with each other. On Friday, she searched for him with her partner around Balboa Park, but when she couldn’t find him, they decided to go home. That’s when they came across Luis’ car near the DMV in Hillcrest, she said.
The 911 call came in on Friday, May 28, at around 11:40 a.m.
“I need an ambulance my friend is passed out in the car,” Boutros said on the recording, her voice breaking, “I don’t know if he’s dead. His body is cold.”
The officers first to respond noted that Luis was in the passenger seat of the car face down with his head on the floorboard and his feet on the headrest, according to the police report. His car was parked near a church in Hillcrest.
He was missing a shoe, wallet and other personal belongings – including a notepad he carried around to draw, his family said. Inside the car were food containers and a receipt from Jack in the Box for an order placed in the early morning of Thursday.
Boutros spoke to a police officer about Luis’ health and life and shared that she knew he had tried meth and other drugs before.
When the family arrived, the block was surrounded with yellow police tape. Sandy Armenta Antonio said she told a police officer that they were family. They were not allowed on the other side of the yellow tape, and they were not questioned.
An investigator with the county’s Medical Examiner examined Luis’ body and the car, then took his body. The police turned over the car to the family, and all the items inside it, including Luis’ cell phone.
Heartbroken, the family went home and tried to make sense of why police officers didn’t ask them questions. That’s when they looked in the car.
Joel Tien, a sergeant with the San Diego Police Department’s homicide unit who is currently handling the case but was not present on the scene for the initial investigation, said the case is currently closed.
He could not comment on specific details of the investigation.
He said that there are a lot of odd circumstance in death investigations that “are going to look questionable” but if those did not lead to the cause of death then there is not much they can do.
The family disagrees with that. And they are not alone.
Carl Hershman, a retired detective with the San Diego Police Department who worked homicides and sex crimes, said he believes police officers should have taken the car because of the way Luis was found and the missing shoe.
“That’s the thing that makes you go, ‘hmm,’” he said, adding that police officers regularly encounter deaths that are accidental, suicides, natural and suspicious, but often the determination for further investigation, falls on someone feeling that “something is not right.”
And in Luis’ case there are plenty of loose ends, he said.
The location of Luis’ body is important as is the position of his body, Hershman said. He said police should have taken the car and cell phone.
“That’s the moment you need to kind of take pause and at least figure out how and why he ended up like this, that would be a red flag,” he said.
Sgt. Tien said if a witness steps up or police get more information about the case, they will follow up. Just because a case is closed doesn’t mean they can’t look again.
“Based on the circumstances of the autopsy report, the doctor determined that whatever position he was found in was not a factor in his death,” Tien said.
So much of what happens with homicide investigations is determined by the initial conclusions of whether certain circumstances contributed to the death. In Luis’ case, investigators concluded the unusual circumstances did not. Tien said he could not comment on specific details of the investigation, but he said that every case is different and some cases are going to have elements that require more investigation than others. And with Luis’ case the police did not reach that point.
Luis’ family members and friends believe there were enough odd circumstances that should have been investigated by police. But it’s the dismissal of her family’s concerns that Sandy Antonio Arment finds most disturbing.
“You expect more from them and really they are not doing anything,” she said. “We found more information about my brother of who he was with that night.”
A Family Desperate for Answers
When Luis was found the police did not impound the vehicle, interview the family or take his phone as evidence.
Back at their house, the family went through the car and found the receipt from Jack in the Box for an order of two breakfast sandwiches and drinks made in the early morning hours of Thursday.
The family did not hear from Luis at any point on Thursday. He missed a work meeting, and although he was in daily contact with his mom, he didn’t respond to any texts or calls that day. His body was found Friday morning.
They decided to start their own investigation. The day after his body was found, the family went to Jack in the Box and requested the security footage of the drive-thru from the restaurant. The restaurant gave them the video.
In the video, an unknown man is sitting in the driver seat of Luis’ car waiting for the food order. He occasionally moves an object around on the passenger seat. His face is turned inside the car most of the time as if he were speaking to another passenger, and he sips on a drink before pulling away with the rest of the order.
The family does not know who the man is. There is no evidence that the man was with Luis at the time Luis overdosed or that the man was involved with Luis’ death.
A couple of weeks after his death, a small memorial was set up with flowers and signs outside the church where his car was found. That’s where someone left the note that read, “This man was murdered ask the blue house!”
Fabiola Antonio, Luis’ oldest sister, turned over those details, and a recording of the video to the police, she said, because she felt that maybe the police weren’t investigating because they didn’t have those details.
She said they tried to convince her that it would be too difficult to follow the case because Luis was determined to have died by an overdose. She was told that even if someone had done something to him, it would be difficult to get that person to claim responsibility, she said.
“I know that no matter what I do, I can’t bring my brother back to life,” Fabiola Antonio said. She explained that she and her family would nevertheless like to know who, if anyone, was with him at the time that he overdosed and why that person did not help him.
The police never returned to take the car, and eventually Alberta Armenta sold it because she couldn’t stand seeing it in their front yard. The family still has Luis’ phone and the note, neatly tucked in a notebook.
The note does not include a contact number or name, but VOSD visited the blue house in February. A man coming out of the house said he heard someone was found dead on their block, but that he didn’t hear or see anything.
Hershman, who worked for SDPD for 32 years, said police should have followed up with the family after they learned of the note to process it for fingerprints or to rule it out.
“That’s called a lead,” he said. “That’s something you follow up on.”
He said the missing shoe indicates that Luis could have overdosed outside of the car, or that the car was moved at some point. Hershman said that often when officers make a wrong call it’s because they have confirmation bias.
“Instead of looking for things to actually find out what happened they look for things to confirm their bias and that’s where investigators screw up,” he said. “They are supposed to stay in the middle and follow leads.”
Jordan said she feels the police wrote off Luis’ death as a simple overdose.
“That’s wrong because that’s still somebody’s son, friend,” she said.
Manner of Death
The Medical Examiner’s office determined that the manner of death was an accident. The toxicology report they completed showed that he had meth in his system. The autopsy report does not explain how the drugs entered his system, but it notes that there were no visible track marks on his arms.
Luis’ family members knew he smoked marijuana, but they were not aware that Luis was using other drugs. But some friends did.
Aaron Emde knew Luis for nearly six months before he died.
Emde said they met on a dating app, for gay men, and did meth together. But they only used meth together a couple of times, because Emde was struggling with his use, and Luis wanted to help him get clean.
He described Luis as a periodic user, saying that he only smoked meth occasionally and it could range from once every two weeks or month. He never observed Luis’ pushing his limits, he said. They were supposed to go on a trip to the Salton Sea the day Luis’ body was found, to help Emde get clean, but he didn’t hear from Luis despite texting him. On the day of the trip, Friday, Emde texted Luis asking him to call him back, and instead a friend texted him saying, “we found Luis’s car and he was inside passed away.”
Emde said he has struggled to cope with Luis’ death. Though they only knew each other for a short period, they connected, he said. The last time they saw each other in person, was a week before he died. Luis stopped by to visit and brought him a bundle of lavender, Emde said.
He opted to dry the flowers, rather than stick them in a vase with water, so they’d last longer, not knowing that they’d carry a stronger meaning a year later. He still has the dried-up lavender in his apartment and keeps it in a glass case next to his bed.
“I tell him I love him every single day,” he said, crying.
Emde said he doesn’t know what happened to him, but he knows that he didn’t deserve it.
“He wasn’t just some guy using drugs giving up on life, that wasn’t him, he was so full of life,” Emde said.
Alberta Armenta wants anyone who was with Luis that night and the person who was driving his car to come forward to help answer the family’s questions. She doesn’t believe her son will truly rest in peace until that is done.
Feliciano Antonio said he fears that, if anyone was involved with Luis’ overdose, that person or people might hurt the family for asking questions or making noise about the case. But not knowing what happened to Luis is worse, he said.
Luis’ memory is present in the family’s home today. There is a large photo of Luis that greets anyone who enters their home at the end of a hallway. A few of his hats are placed throughout the home, and his little dog Nala is staying with them.
His parents visit his gravesite every day.
On a recent afternoon, Alberta Armenta, Feliciano Antonio and Sandy stood next to the plot where Luis is buried. The site was covered with flowers and balloons.
“They only found him and ignored everything,” said Alberta Armenta of the police, adding that their apparent lack of interest in finding what happened to her son hurts the most.
Alberta Armenta stood over his gravesite, and with tears rolling down her face she said, “I tell him, I don’t know how I am going to do it, but we need to find the person that took your dreams away.”
What a tragic story. I hope someone comes forward with more information. Someone knows something.
Off a reward 2,500
They should plaster posters of that guy’s face in the video every where especially in Hillcrest trust me someone will come forward. My condolences it’s been years since I’ve spoken to Luis via Facebook never met but this truly breaks my heart.

PWD officials say that the consultants will first do an inspection of these flyovers and then carry out tests to assess the strength and condition of the structures. “We have asked them to prepare the reports in three months’ time. Based on the report, we will plan the rehabilitation work. The repair work will start next year,” added the PWD official cited in the first instance.
There are 86 flyovers on PWD roads across Delhi, of which 11 were constructed in the 1980s and the ’90s. After problems were reported in the Lajpat Nagar flyover last year, PWD made visual inspection of several flyovers.
While repair work on several flyovers such as Akshardham, Lajpat Nagar, Meera Bagh and Defence Colony have been completed, the department is in the process of repairing other flyovers. In East Delhi; it has started repair work on the Shreshtha Vihar flyover and will soon start the work on Nand Nagri flyover.
HT recently reported cracks in the Nehru Nagar rail Road Over Bridge (ROB), which is nearly 50 years old, near Ashram in south Delhi. Delhi PWD is in the process of preparing estimates for its repair. According to PWD officials, the repair of Nehru Nagar ROB will cost close to ₹15 crore and will start early next year.
Road safety and transport planning experts stress the need for regular maintenance of road infrastructure in the city. “These flyovers are located on arterial roads with high vehicular load. Chirag Dilli and Kashmere Gate are used by heavy vehicles, as these are located on the Outer Ring Road. The government should devise a plan for regular maintenance of flyovers. While new flyovers are being constructed in the city, it is important to repair and rehabilitate old ones as structural defects can lead to failure of the structure, ” said Sewa Ram, professor of transport planning at the School of Planning and Architecture.

A cool top for Florida summer heat!
Maybe not what the teeny-boppers would wear, but I am looking for cool comfort and a decent look. Does fit a little loose and could have used one size down, but loose is better than tight. The fabric is good quality and it's well made and washes well. Hope they will get a new crop in, in lots of colors!

Jumper & Smock
I'm not to happy with the sizing. Both items are large on me I ordered a Med. I am not a small. So I hesitate to order the smaller size. Both my items were to big. Maybe your clothing is not for me.
July 18, 2014
This is for around the house. I like it and it looks nice on, but it is rather old-fashioned and looks like a mini house-coat. Color is beautiful.
July 17, 2014
Loved this smock.
Loved this smock and wish I could get more of them.
July 15, 2014
light weight fabric makes it a cool choice.
Style and fabric make this a good summer choice. However it runs a little big. And while I like the gingham check, my greatest critic (13 yr old grandson) says it looks like a tablecloth and doesn't want me to wear it outside the house. So I probably won't.
July 13, 2014
Cute summer top good colors!! Nothing more to say it is perfect.

Experts See Critical Flaws in India’s Draft Data Protection Law
The Straits Times, February 28, 2020
By Rohini Mohan
India's draft data protection law requires companies holding sensitive personal data of its users - biometrics, health and financial data, and details such as caste, religion and sexual orientation - to store a copy of the data in India. Critical personal data, a term not yet defined, is required to be stored only inside the country.
The Software Alliance, an industry group that includes companies such as Microsoft and IBM, says the use of these terms could confuse consumers and businesses, "disrupt companies' operations and increase the costs of providing services in India".
BSA | The Software Alliance (www.bsa.org) is the leading advocate for the global software industry before governments and in the international marketplace. Its members are among the world’s most innovative companies, creating software solutions that help businesses of all sizes in every part of the economy to modernize and grow.
With headquarters in Washington, DC, and operations in more than 30 countries, BSA pioneers compliance programs that promote legal software use and advocates for public policies that foster technology innovation and drive growth in the digital economy.


Soma-Imbat lignite is a typical lignitic coal produced by Turkish Coal Enterprises. It is characterized by relatively moderate ash levels (37-40 %), low sulfur (0.54 %) and medium calorific values of 3062 Kcal/kg. Wet cleaning of this coal produces reasonably good quality clean coal with 15.5 % ash and combustible recoveries of 80.5 %. Problems with wet separation techniques such as the need for water shortage in arid areas and high cost of dewatering of coal fines make it necessary to introduce dry cleaning techniques. For this purpose, a pilot scale Allair Jig was used to determine the dry cleaning characteristics of Soma-Imbat lignite in size of -13 mm. Prior to application of dry beneficiation, some basic test were performed to determine the feed size or size fractions on separations to achieve maximum separation efficiencies. Beneficiation studies were conducted on size fractions of -13+4 mm and -4+1 mm using Allair Jig and on -1 mm using Akaflow aerodynamic separator. Different conditions of feed/discharge stargate, ventilator and flutter valve rates and vibration frequency (for Akaflow) were tested for optimization. The results reveal that dry separation for this particular coal is possible with relatively good coal recoveries. The results obtained with Allair Jig are discussed with the help of data on separation efficiencies.


In our country, every citizen, according to the Constitution of the Russian Federation, has the right to freedom of speech. Recently, in social networks I read one interesting opinion of a man who admonishes military retirees that they “whine” because they do not increase their military pension. Because it is already quite high and military pensioners are not the poorest.
I also want to use my constitutional right and, as a veteran of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, a major reserve, I cannot agree with the phrase “whine” and that it (the pension) is quite high. I know for sure that we didn’t “ache” when the lieutenants from dawn to dusk spent time not with my family, but in the barracks. When from the comfort we only had the soldiers' beds and mattresses in the old, out-of-date houses, and everything else was on the street. When did the standards for "officer triathlon: water, firewood, slop." When weekends and holidays were weekdays for us. When in the 90s we were not paid a monthly allowance for the 3 – 4 of the month, and we didn’t go out into the square and didn’t knock on the asphalt with helmets. We really had other helmets. And they did their duty to protect their homeland and their people, according to the oath taken. And this is not pathos. It is a fact of life.
“Pensioners make up a quarter of the population of Russia, and, according to experts, for many of them pension payments are the main, almost indispensable source of their income ...” - Vladimir Putin once said.
Pension payments to military pensioners are determined by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of 7 in May 2012 of the year No. 604 “On the further improvement of military service in the Russian Federation” and the Federal Law of February 12 of 1993 of the year No. 4468-I “On the provision of pensions to military service personnel cases, the State Fire Service, drug and psychotropic substances control authorities, institutions and bodies of the penitentiary system, and their families. ”
So, my pension on 30 September 2015, 14 440 rub. This is with the 20-year service. By the resolution of the Kursk region administration No. 423 in the region, the minimum subsistence basket in the second quarter of 2015 of the year was set at 7123 rubles. Then, after paying for the gas meter, water, electricity, and other utility services, in the end, it remains in the hands of about 3000 rubles. Answer yourself: a big pension?
Again, Federal Law No. 4468-I has limited the payment of a full and well-deserved pension of military retirees to the size of 54%. And the remaining 46% is planned to pay, adding on 2,5% annually. I will return to this accrual system below. By limiting pensions, the State Duma deputies, apparently, made an exception for certain categories of servicemen. For example, participants of the Second World War. After all, members of the Russian government headed by the prime minister, deputies of the State Duma, especially during the Victory Day celebration - 9 in May, claim that they are in indebted debt to the veterans' feat and will do everything to make the rest of their lives worthy.
In fact, they did not make such an exception. If we consider that the youngest veteran is only 90 years old, then in 120 years they will receive a fully deserved retirement pension. If it were so, I would be more happy than others, because my father, a participant in the Great Patriotic War - 90 years. Unfortunately, no exceptions were made to participants in the hostilities in Afghanistan, Chechnya, South Ossetia, and others.
So maybe no one ever made an exception? Alas. Made. I quote: “an exception is for judges of the Military Collegium of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation and military courts, prosecutors (including military personnel of the military prosecutor’s office) and employees of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation (including military investigative bodies of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation), retired persons from the above persons and members their families. " I think for this category have made such an exception for their "high professionalism." Only they did not see the corpus delicti of the former Russian defense minister, Anatoly Serdyukov, who was allegedly misled by his subordinates.
Now about the 2,5% indexing, which I mentioned earlier. 1 January 2015, all military retirees did not see an increase in their retirement benefits, according to the law. How? Why? After all, both the president and the prime minister on television say that social programs will be implemented in full. I began to understand. It turns out everything is legal. Deputies of the State Duma, their colleagues from the Federation Council of the Russian Federation adopted an amendment to the Federal Law “On the suspension of part of 2 Art. 43 of the Russian Federation "On the pension provision of persons serving in the military, serving in the internal affairs bodies, the State Fire Service, the narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances control agencies, institutions and bodies of the penitentiary system, and their families" in connection with the Federal Law “On the Federal Budget for 2015 year and for the planning period of 2016 and 2017”, which was adopted by the State Duma of the Russian Federation on November 21 and approved by the Federation Council of November 26 on 2014. In a word, there is no money for us, military pensioners. Indexing will not be. And you know what the rationale? From the transcript of the meeting of the State Duma of the Russian Federation: “The bill was introduced by the Deputy Minister of Finance of the Russian Federation, Leonid Gornin, who said that thanks to the proposed changes, the military pension would increase 1,65 times.” What is it like? Without increasing by 2,5% - increase in 1,65 times.
Add 100 thousand of salaries to deputies have money, pay monthly in the state corporation Rosneft to its head the salary of 20 million rubles. - there is money. I have one monthly salary without a bonus, it would be enough to live smartly until the end of my life.
I understand that in the country for objective and subjective reasons, the financial and economic situation is very difficult. I think we could not pay attention to this fact. Provided that if the deputies, state and municipal employees would start with themselves. Refusing not to 10% of their salaries. Provided that all the rest would not be indexed. And now, our ministers are looking for ways to save money by increasing the retirement age, freezing citizens' pension deposits, and reducing indexation. There is not a single offer to cut labor costs and other expenses of all officials in 2 – 3. From the TV screen only says - optimize. At the same time, the draft budget for the 2016 year is again going to increase expenditures in DG and SF and not 1 – 2%, but 10 times more. Can the "servants of the people" live better than the people themselves? Apparently they can.
Ahead of the question: where to get the money? Criticize easily. I answer.
The “saved” money from cuts of our pensions almost 2 should have remained. Reduce significantly the salaries of officials and reduce the bureaucratic apparatus by at least 25 – 30%. Only having reduced, not to arrange them in other state or municipal bodies, and as mere mortals - on the labor exchange, in the center of employment. Let them try to find work like ordinary people, especially if their age will be more than 45 years. To run with the issued “runner” and then try to explain why citizens do not want to work as loaders, janitors and janitors with two higher educations. To adjust the salaries of employees of state corporations. In private companies, their own business. They spend their personal earned money. And on the salary of officials go money from taxes, which we deduct. To return the money stolen by various officials, and this is several billion rubles, and others.
There is also a reserve. Most of the officers go to stock in 45 years. The main part after the dismissal continues to work. From them, as well as from all employees, the FNT transfers 22% to the Pension Fund. Let roughly calculate. According to Rosstat, military pensioners are about 40 million people. Suppose that after the dismissal, the entire 20 million began to work. Suppose they have a salary of 15 000 rubles. per month. That is, monthly from the payroll of working military pensioners to the Pension Fund of Russia 60 billion rubles is deducted. And multiply by 12 months, but also by 15 years, it’s just that the stock officer needs to work to start getting a second pension in 60 years, on average 1500 rubles. Where do these contributions go, to whom are they paid, if they are not paid to servicemen?
And the last. With these questions, only on a larger scale, I wrote in writing to the President of the Russian Federation as the guarantor of the Constitution, in the State Duma of the Russian Federation, in the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. Answers in the form of formal replies received from the presidential administration and the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

Just Because A Leader Shamelessly Exploits Children To Push His Agenda Doesn’t Mean You Can Trust Him (7 Pictures)
When a leader exploits children to try to convince you to go along with his agenda, it’s worth remembering that many of the leaders who’ve done that in the past haven’t had the best of intentions.
President Obama has failed in many ways to get Americans to follow along with his giant government, Big Brother ways.
How many terror attacks or attempted terror attacks have occurred on U.S. soil since 9/11? Five? Six? Ten? According to
Economics 101 and what we do AFTER we repeal Obamacare… Ed Morrissey also has some good commentary about this video


In an attempt to alleviate the tension between the United States and Russia, German Foreign Minister Sigmar Gabriel, who is on an official visit to Moscow, said Berlin would try to facilitate a meeting between President Donald Trump and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin, during next week’s G20 summit that will be held in the city of Hamburg. “Of course we all hope the Russian president and the American president come into direct talks because many of the world conflicts that we need to tackle are only finally tackled if both countries have threads of discussion with each other. That is our hope. We suppose that it will be a success to get a mutual agenda there, for example with an issue of climate protection, we talked about that today,” German Foreign Minister Sigmar Gavriel said.
The tension between Moscow and Washington reached an all-time low, when the White House issued a warning to Syria’s government of President Bashar Assad over its military’s reported preparation to possibly conduct a chemical attack against rebels. Russia, which supports Assad’s regime, responded to the American threat by warning that it would respond to a preemptive strike against Syria’s military, raising concerns of a possible frontal conflagration between the two super powers.

Nick Gordon has died at 30. On the first day of 2020, Gordon died from an alleged drug overdose in Florida, according to PEOPLE.
Jack Walker Jr. issued a statement following Gordon’s death. died Wednesday in Florida following a drug overdose.
“We are devastated by the loss of my beautiful brother,” Walker Jr. told PEOPLE. “He leaves a void in the hearts of my family and his friends. Nick’s battle in life was not an easy one. I will be forever grateful that my God afforded a small moment at the very end of Nick’s life, and I was able to hold his hand as he journeyed on.”
Gordon’s claim to fame came with his controversial relationship with the daughter of Whitney Houston and Bobbi Brown, Bobbi Kristina Brown.
In 2015, Bobbi Kristina Brown died after allegedly taking morphine, cocaine, alcohol and prescription drugs. However, a medical examiner could not determine if she killed herself, or if she was killed by someone else.
Bobby Brown and his family blamed Gordon for Bobbi Kristina Brown’s death and sued him. Gordon was never charged in the case but was found responsible in a wrongful death lawsuit. A judge in Atlanta judge ordered Gordon to pay $36 million to Brown’s estate.

The Play and folklore exhibition at the Victorian State Museum is a really interesting one because it testifies to the disappearance of accessible natural places for children, without consciously linking this to overpopulation and development, currently rampant in Victoria.
Ironically it uses photographs by Jim Quirk, the father of SPA Victoria President, population activist, Jill Quirk. The photographs are of his children, whose play he minutely and lovingly documented during the 1950s in Victoria.
These pictures will seem incredibly familiar, perhaps achingly familiar, to many people who grew up during that time in Australia. Jill's father, Jim Quirk, was a bank manager who loved wildlife and, like his daughter, worried greatly about the impact of overpopulation on natural spaces and freedom. He was also an expert colour photographer.
A photograph of Jill and her sister - where, I wonder?
Here is a worthwhile quote from a part of the exhibition:
"Not only do children have less freedom than they once did, but there are also fewer natural spaces available to children to play. Robert Pyle, an American naturalist and writer, explained that a sense of place is gained through intimate contact with natural landscapes, emphasising the importance of the ‘presence of special places and the liberty to encounter them at will’. He argued that as children’s actions are limited by regulations in genuinely wild areas such as national parks, we should be protecting small pockets of unofficial countryside – such as overgrown vacant lots or abandoned buildings – where children can play and explore freely.5"
The exhibition is by museum curator, Carla Pascoe.

In May 2021, with over 95% of the votes counted, the results of the Chilean constitutional Referendum are being decided. Resulting from mass protests in 2019, the Chilean government had agreed to a rejection of the Fascist Pinochet-era Constitution and agreed to write a new democratic constitution.
Politicians vs elected Assembly
Based on the current count, it seems that of the 155-member constituent assembly, nearly a third will come from the left and center-left parties. Just over a fifth will come from right and center right-wing parties. Surprisingly, a third of the Assembly will be independents. The remaining 17 seats are reserved for representatives of indigenous communities. Many resolutions require a two-thirds majority. The lackluster performance of the right of center parties means that they would not be able to effectively block resolutions by themselves. This weakens their negotiating powers. Many big corporates were hoping that they would have been able to lobby on their behalf.
Pinochet’s rule started with a coup d’etat. He used the military to overthrow the world’s first democratically elected national Marxist government. The previous government promised a parliamentary path to socialism. This ruffled the feathers of the US, who became afraid of a red wave in Latin America. With Cuba becoming a socialist state, America was afraid that Chile would follow. They used all sorts of economic warfare to break the Chilean economy and seemed to have been involved in Pinochet’s subsequent coup.
In the later years of Pinochet’s military rule of Chile, he came under pressure to step down and return Chile to democracy. This pressure was both from inside the country and internationally. Pinochet’s rule was followed by a rushed referendum which was fascist. The new constitution was drafted mostly by Pinochet’s followers. It protected business interests and was weak in the protection of human rights. It gave the military a lot of power and left representative and democratic institutions weak.
The constitution was ratified by a plebiscite, but there were complaints that the military had too much power in overseeing the elections. When the constitution was finally ratified, the coalition that came to power was based on parties that had opposed Pinochet’s constitution. The coalition was called the Concertación por el No, or Concertación (Campaign for the No, or Campaign). The Concertación was the most powerful coalition from the end of Pinochet’s government in 1989 to 2010 when they finally lost.
While in power, the Concertación was not able to alter the fundamental pro-corporate and promilitary nature of the constitution. This restricted the country’s ability to deal with real socio-economic issues, like poverty, inequality, healthcare, and education.
Protesting: From bus fares to the constitution
From 2006, student-led protests began to grow in Chile. Originally the protests were in response to the rising fares in public transportation, but as they grew, protesters began to focus more comprehensively on the provisions for education, from cost to access to transport to representation.
Chile’s education system was regulated through the Organic Constitutional Act of Teaching. The Chilean public education was broken down, and the state was a rubber stamp regulator of education rather than a provider.
Protesters started demanding that the state scraped the Organic Constitutional Act of Teaching, and replace it with real infrastructure. Protests grew over the years. Finally, the state agreed to give in to the demands of the protesters.
While the government passed many acts based on the protesters’ demands, all of those acts were struck down by the courts. Ending the for-profit education system in Chile became a question of Chile’s constitution.
In 2018, the Concertación lost the elections to the Right-wing parties led by the pro-business Sebastián Piñera. In 2019, the government increased bus fares again, leading to the ¡Evade! Movement, where students refused to pay the fare in public transport. This escalated quickly, and within one month of the beginning of the ¡Evade! Movement, the protests spread all over the country, leading to a state of national emergency.
In November 2019, the government agreed to rewrite the constitution by plebiscite. The Plebiscite originally was to begin in April 2020 but was postponed to October due to the COVID pandemic.
In the first phase, the people were given the option of retaining or rewriting the constitution, and whether the drafting body should be wholly elected. The overwhelming majority supported a rewrite by a newly elected body. In the recent phase, the people voted on the 155 member committee. When the committee drafts a new constitution, it will be put up against being accepted by a popular vote. This is expected to happen no later than August 2021.
