I'm not in Mexico at the present time, but just received this email from someone who is there:

To all my friends and their friends and their friends...
Today is the 6th of August.30 people from the village were taken to jail,some beaten severely and remain there.The bail is 20,000 pesos for every person.The charge is :resisting police orders.
The moving company, which has taken furniture and valuables from the owners was a fraud.It was corrupted police itself wanting to steal the the people stuff.The german lady,Irene,recovered a bit of her possessions,some of her stuff,like her mattresses were thrown in a rain out of her house.Her fridges,just a few months old do not work,since they also have thrown them out.
People are afraid.
Policemen walk around like big cocky roosters with their arms in their hands.
The alcohol from the restaurants has been used by the police,also the beds in hotels.Daily leave many state trucks full of black garbage bags of stolen goods.
Irene heard that the buildings,like her house and others will be leveled today.She is running around trying to find justice.Her lawyer has no advice for her.
No one is allowed on a beach and if the restaurant owners need to go there,they are searched for weapons and accompanied by the police.
The police is very very tense and trigger happy.They were shooting last night randomly.I have not seen the targets,but heard the noise.
No one is on the streets after dark.Mothers of teenage daughters are very afraid and some,who have the means have send their daughters away.
The facts are that this beach is so precious,that someone(still unclear who)with a lot of financial power has started the motion to make this beach another Carreyes,or el Tamarindo.
The lots at the beach have no posts anymore,the wires were cut and someone started to put up a chain link fence,but we have no details and it is extremely hard to take any pics.The palapa Mosca does no exist anymore.
Mosca himself does not eat or sleep only sits and life is being sucked right out of him.Poor Lola,she had so many plans for this upcoming season is devastated.Everybody is.
