3 officers fired
after man says
he was beaten
HOUSTON (AP) — Three patrol
officers were fired from the Hous
ton Police Department for allegedly
beating a prisoner last year on the
city’s northeast side, records show.
The man who was alleged beaten,
Jimmy Precella, 28, said Tuesday
that three officers repeatedly struck
him with nightsticks and flashlights.
Precella said the officers — Hu
bert L. Watson, Edward B. Robinson
Sr. and Jeffrey K. Sparks — also
cursed him during the alleged attack
on Sept. 25, 1987.
The officers were fired Friday by
Assistant Police Chief Dennis Store-
mski, head of the department’s field
operations command.
On Tuesday, the three officers
appealed the dismissals through the
city’s Civil Service Commission.
In papers filed with the commis
sion, Storemski said Precella was
beaten by the officers after he was
stopped and given three traffic tick
ets.
A week earlier, Watson had ar
rested Precella on a charge of as
saulting his wife — a charge later
dismissed, Storemski said.
During the earlier incident, while
en route to the City Jail, Precella “al
legedly cut the backseat of the patrol
car,” Storemski said.
In the documents, Storemski said
the trio took the prisoner to a nearby
parking lot and beat him.
“While it is possible that not all
three officers actually struck Mr.
Precella, they were all present and
would have been aware of the activ
ities of the other officers,” he wrote.
“Each officer has been untruthful
because each officer has expressly
denied any mistreatment of the pris
oner,” he wrote.

EL PASO (AP) — Pete Duarte still
lives, even though he raised only 40
percent of the $500,000 he wanted
to raise last year for the La Fe Clinic
he directs.
Duarte, taking a cue froiir evange
list Oral Roberts, said last April 1
that the Aztec goddess Xochitlizquatl
told him to walk into the desert and
never come back if he didn’t raise
the half-million dollars for the clinic
during a 40-day fund drive.
Xochitlizquatl spared Duarte,
though he came up $300,000 short.
This year, to be safe, Duarte quipped
that he planned to offer three pup
pies for sacrifice in a tongue-in-
cheek ceremony at sunrise Friday at
a site overlooking El Paso and Ciu
dad Juarez, Mexico.
The 50-year-old director of the
southside health clinic for the poor
planned to don purple jogging
shorts, run to Lookout Point on
Franklin Mountain at the crack of
dawn, chant to “Xochi,” as he calls
the Aztec god, offer three white
puppies for sacrifice and plant corn
on the rocks, said Domingo Nick
Reyes, a clinic administrator.
The corn-planting is done in hope
that Xochitlizquatl — goddess of fer
tility, flowers, health and good cheer
— will bring prosperity to the 20-
year-old clinic, Reyes said Thursday.
The 6 a.m. ceremony, also featur
ing drummers and dancers, has its
serious side: publicizing this year’s
40-day fund drive in which the clinic
again hopes to raise $500,000 for
items such as examining tables, wait
ing chairs and medical equipment.
The clinic raised almost $200,000
last year, almost all from corpora
tions.
As they did last year, contributors
will receive a “green card” to Aztlan,
the promised land of Aztec.
