A federal grand jury in Houston returned the four- count indictment, which alleges that the defendants mistreated two prisoners who had been returned fol lowing their escape, the department said. Named as defendants were Robert Minor Lawson II, assistant warden of the Wynne Unit of the Texas De partment of Corrections in Walker County, and Donald L. Shiver/captain of the unit, the Justice Department said. The guards named in indictment were Leonel Leal Jr., Morris Ray Bigham, Nathan Bryant White and Henry E. Farris, said Assistant Attorney General Wil liam Bradford Reynolds, who heads the department’s civil rights division. All six defendants were charged with conspiring “to injure and intimidate” Scott E. Licklider and Mark A. Griffith “in violation of their constitutional rights not to be deprived of liberity without due process of law, not to be subjected to summary punishment, and to be kept free from harm while in official custody,” the depart ment said. The indictment said that Lawson, Shiver and some 25 guards assembled at the back gate of the Wynne Unit on Oct. 29, 1982, to receive the inmates when they were returned by deputy sheriffs after their escape the night before. According to the indictment, Lawson, Shiver and others stripped the inmates of their clothing and prodded them to go naked and handcuffed to the (prison) major’s office, where they were repeatedly beaten and Griffith was burned with a cigarette by Leal. Later, the indictment said, Lawson and Shiver filed reports “falsely stating that Griffith had accidentally fallen and hit his head.” All of the defendants other than Leal were charged in two other counts with violating the civil rights of Licklider and Griffith, the department said. Leal was charged in a separate count with violating the civil rights of Griffith in the cigarette burning inci dent. If convicted on the charge of conspiracy to violate prisoners’ constitutional rights, each of the defendants could f ace a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. Conviction on a charge of actual deprivation of rights carries a maximum penalty of one year in prison and a $1,000 fine. Devalued peso hurts area Gov.

Buy and Sell Through Classified Ads Call 845-2611 in a swing through the Rio Grande Valley on Monday, gave finan cially beleaguered shrimpers a pep talk and stressed economic diversification to other businessmen and community leaders. The Valley has been plagued in recent years by peso devaluations, which have hurt border communities, and winter freezes, which have damaged the citrus and vegetable industry. But while the citrus industry is on the rebound, Mex ico’s peso problems continue and the governor said other businesses must help attract more people to the Valley. “I have been very active in trying to develop additio nal tourist attractions as well as develop connections be tween our airline and tourist industry,” White told re porters and area elected officials. “I am very pleased to see our citrus industry coming back,” he said. Gitrus growers lost an estimated $100 million after a December 1983 freeze destroyed trees over about 60 percent of the citrus acreage in the Valley.

Earlier in the day in Brownsville, White talked to. shrimpers, who have said federal regulations, too many shrimpers and not enough shrimp are driving many out of business. Shrimpers recently lost a court hearing to stop the U.S. Coast Guard from enforming the Lacey Act and seizing shrimp caught in Mexican waters. “I understand there are options being discussed to day with Mexico and I think it’s vital we work together with Mexico in helping solve this problem,” White said. “I know it is vital to this industry. It’s also vital to this part of the state. And I think it’s truly vital to Mexico as well. “To me, when you see that type of common interest then I think we have some hope for resolution of those problems.” White met later with the shrimpers and community leaders privately. He was scheduled to join Lt. Gov. Bill Hobby later in the day for a swearing-in ceremony for 206th District Court Judge Joe B. Lvins. White appointed Evins as jus tice of the state’s 5th Administrative Judicial District.
