Hi Hazel, Walter and Gail (&Gypsy)
We wanted to be sure you are aware of the nightmare going on in Tenacity. Yesterday, Wednesday, the State police took over Tenacatita and set up a road block between El Rebelsito and Tenacatita stopping all traffic in or out of the village. They have evicted everybody and cleared out all of the Hotels and Restaurants.
They have apparently knocked down all of the fencing along our beach and have broken into Mario and Sharon's house and are using it as their headquarters.
Our understanding is that the developer Rodenas is behind the action but we haven't been able to get that confirmed. They are evicting people indiscriminately whether people have title to their properties or not. Irene was physically removed even though she told them she had title. Josue and Rene were evicted from Danny and Lorena's, the two story house on the highway, just down from us closer to Mario and Sharon's. Oscar and Emma are in Houston but their security and caretaking staff are evicted. Even Jesus and Maria who have title to the Hotel Los Amigos were evicted and watched the police throw all of their furniture and appliances out on the road.
We have been in touch with Lomeli and he is aware of the situation and is trying to determine what, if any, legal order is supporting these actions. His own son is affected by this mess so hopefully he will get to the bottom of it.
No killings have taken place but we did hear a few people were pretty roughed up and arrested in trying to confront the riot dressed police force.
Apparently the town people have set up their own road block between highway 200 and La Rosa to keep any heavy construction equipment from entering the area.
Quite the mess
