It's a shame about Ray

Back home, criminal defense attorney Ray Pena was arrested yesterday on two counts of procurement. Procurement is defined as an act of inducing, compelling, enticing or procuring another person to engage in an act of prostitution.

He's a happy, life-loving guy, and I hope this turns out better than it sounds. I prize my Ray-bestowed nickname, El Tlacuache, which translates as "Possum." I knew that Ray carried large amounts of U.S. currency with him, because I once watched him flash a big grin and a big roll of $100's while trying to recruit one of my Spanish-speaking p.d.'s to the private defense bar, but beyond that, I can't say. He's presumed not guilty. Suerte, Ray.
