HOUSTON — Authorities says
the fingerprints from a hand found
in one of tnree trash bags filled with
parts of two people’s dismembered
bodies may help them determine the
identities.
Two human heads, two legs, a
torso and a hand were found Sun
day in three trash bags in rural
northeast Harris County by a passer
by, Harris County sheriffs Lt. Joe
Seckler said.
He said investigators will take fin
gerprints from the hand found to
see if it matches with fingerprints on
file.
The body parts belonged to a man
in his 30s and a woman who was
about six months pregnant, authori
ties said.
Though medical examiners have
not determined a cause of death, the
man appeared to have been shot at
least once in the right eye and the
woman three times in the head, ap
parently with a small-caliber
weapon, Detective Ronnie Phillips
Sr. said Monday.
Investigators said the two ap
peared to have been dead at least 48
hours when the bodies were found.
Because there was no blood at the
scene, detectives believe the bodies
were dismembered somewhere else
and dumped in the rural area.

Mexico president planning
Japan trip to expand exports
Associated Press
MEXICO CITY — In what ap
pears to be an intensification of
Mexican diplomatic and commercial
efforts abroad, President Miguel de
la Madrid will speak to the U.N.
General Assembly and then travel to
Japan.
A presidential spokesman, who
asked not to be identified, said the
trip to Japan starting Oct. 6 is part of
an effort to find new markets for
Mexican exports.
De la Madrid is scheduled to be in
New York from Sept. 24 to 26 to at
tend the 40th anniversary session of
the General Assembly, where some
70 nations will be represented by
their chiefs of state.
“The presence of Mexico will per
mit an exposition of the importance
our country gives to that organiza
tion, as well as a chance for conversa
tions with the secretary general of
the U ; N. and with chiefs of state who
exert an important influence on the
international community,” de la Ma
drid said.
In a document sent to Congress
asking permission to leave the coun
try, the president also said his trip to
the United Nations “offers an excep
tional opportunity to evaluate the
advances and retreats of that com
munity of nations, which constitutes
the only international mechanism
which states have available to in$ul|
a peaceful world order.”
The president’s major foreigil
policy effort has been in the Conia I
dora group, formed inJanuanT' 1
by Mexico, Panama, Colombia
Venezuela to seek a peaceful resolu I
tion to Central American tensions. I
“Mexico has regional prioritieJ
but it cannot isolate itself nor maul
tain itself aloof from states ofotliti|
continents,” de la Madrid has said
His trip to Japan, scheduled frocl
Oct. 6 to 9, has as its main purpotl
opening new products for Mexicatl
exports. That is seen as key toeffoitl
to pull the nation out of the ecJ
nomic crisis.

PORT ARTHUR — As a child,
Ron Robertson wanted to be a “su
per crime fighter like Superman.” In
a sense, the 37-year-old Port Arthur
police detective is fulfilling that
childhood wish.
“I’ve got enough gumption to try
this,” Robertson says of his alter-ego,
a character called McGruff, the
Crime Dog. “And, the kids think of
him as super crime-fighting hero.”
Robertson, a seven-year veteran
of the department, has spent the last
year and a half in the juvenile divi
sion. While many of his cases deal
with children who are in trouble
with the law, some deal with child
abuse — physical, sexual and psy
chological.
“I love children,” he says. “I have
a 9-year-old daughter and I know
how special children are."
Robertson, along with Rosemary
Hanicak, a Port Arthur Health De
partment employee, founded the
Child Abuse Task Force last sum
mer. The task force is open to any
interested agency or individual.
“I knew the Beaumont police had
McGruff puppets,” he says. “But I
don’t think anyone had the cos-
tame.”
Robertson says the $320 invest
ment was worthwhile.
“We’ve probably gotten $3 million
worth of value out of it,” he says.
“Because of the attention McGruff
has received and because of our tele
vision spots, in the last month, four
cases of abuse turned because the
kids saw McGruff. The kids brought
the abuse to the attention of another
person. There’s no telling how many
others have been helped because of
McGruff.”
Because of that, he says, “It’s
worth all the sweat in the world.
“When I first put on the costume,
I took a lot of teasing,” he says. “But
the officers here realize it’s a good
technique in keeping a child’s lim
ited attention span interested. And,
the teasing is worth it because 1
know McGruff is getting throughia|
the kids.”
Robertson’s office is decoraieii|
with posters and pieces of children
artwork. It also serves as a videotapl
ing room where Robertson intei r
views young victims of abuse.
“There’s a lot of new techniquel
available in dealing with
abuse,” Robertson says. “Anii.|
there’s a lot of good, qualified!
cers in the Golden Triangle who sal
cessfully use the techniques inintei l
viewing children. I’m just part i
that team.”
