Clements supports bringing
drug leaders to trial in U.S.
AUSTIN (AP) — Gov Bill Clem
ents said Tuesday he favors bringing
foreign drug kingpins hack to the
United States to face charges for
crimes they commit in this country.
"Any way that we can get them
into a proper court of jurispru
dence. we need to do that.” Clem
ents said
“And if there are actually charges
on file here in the United States —
regardless of which state it is — if we
can bring about extradition and
bring them back. 1 would be most
happy about it. ’ he said
Clements' comments came after a
speech to leaders of the anti-drug
Texas Ribbon Council. The
campaign is a nationwide anti-drug
effort formed in 1985 after U.S.
drug enforcement agent Enrique
Camarena was tortured and mur
dered by drug traffickers in Cuada-
lajara. Mexico
On Monday, authorities in Co
lumbia arrested Eduardo Martinez
Romero, a reputed finance chief of
the powerful C olumbian drug cartel
who is wanted in jfee United States
on money laundering charges He
could be the first of several drug
ring suspects to face trial in U S,
courts.
Clements said he favors using cer
tain segments of the U.S. armed
forces to add the Columbian govern
ment. but he stopped short of eo*-*
dorsing any kind of ' quasi-invasion
of the area
"Americans, and certainly Tex
ans. are not about to step aside as
drugs and crime invade our commu
nities." the governor told the coun-
Americans, and
certainly Texans, are not
about to step aside as
drugs and crime invade our
communities.”
— Gov. Bill Clements
cil The honest and hard-working
men and women of our state are not
going to tolerate the drug culture s
dirtv deeds ”
Robinson Risner, executive direc
tor of Texans' War on Drugs, called
the war on drugs more "destructive'
and “ruthless” than the world wars
or Vietnam
“In this war, there are no Demo
crats. no Republicans — just Ameri
cans fighting for security of those we
love," Risner said
‘Flaky’ land appraisals
boosted fraud scheme
in Dallas, attorney says
LUBBCX.K (AP) — A 8135 mil
lion land-fraud scheme along Inter
state 30 in east Dallas County was
boosted by real-estate appraisals that
were flat flaky,” a prosecutor said
Tuesday, the last day of final argu
ments in the 6-month-old trial
U.S. District Judge Sam Cum
mings prepared Tuesday to read his
charge to the jury Wednesday morn
ing. Jurors then were expected to
begin pondering the fates of former
Garland developer D. L. "Danny"
Faulkner and six other defendant*
After two days of sometimes emo
tional final arguments by defense at
torneys. prosecutors had the final
say Tuesday. They explained the
three-part. 88-cnunt indict merit that
accuses the defendants of hilking
Empire Savings and Loan Associa
tion of Mesquite and four other
thrifts of ,8135 million through fan
ciful land appraisals and sham real-
estate transactions
The last two defendants to pre
sent final arguments were laud ap
praisers Arthur Formann and Paul
Tannehili Attorney* lor both said
their clients did not over-appraise
property, especially in light of the
building boom that hit the 1-30 cor
ridor east of Dallas when the ap
praisals were made in 1982 and
1983
But assistant U.S. Attorney Jo
seph Revest said Formann and Tan-
nenill were paid to inflate land va
lues. He said none of their appraisals
for Faulkner and Toler reflected
fair market values, and that they
even got street names and toning
classifications wrong, indicating they
sometimes didn't visit the sites they
claimed to have appraised.
“You can't have any doubts the
appraisals were flat flaky,” Revest
said.
Five defendants — Faulkner,
James L. Toler, hankers Spencer H
Blain Jr. and Paul Aiiin Jensen and
real-estate salesman Kenneth Can-
sler — are charged with racketeer-
^ jury
All seven defendants are charged
with conspiracy to defraud the
thrifts and various fraud counts
Cummings estimated it would
take about two hours to read his 90-
page charge to the jury
This is literally a struggle for the
control of our homes, streets, school
yards and communities.” he said "If
we do nothing, the kingpins, the
dealers, and the junkies will win.”
Clements vowed not to let illegal
drugs "steal the hearts and .minds of
our children This dark evil is enter
ing our cities, our neighborhoods,
and , . . even our homes with a rav
aging force
Earlier this month. Clement*
signed legislation that gives state law
enforcement officials authority to
setae property that is used, or in
tended to be used, in committing a
first-or second-degree felony. In th«-
state law enforcement officials
were only able to seize property if it
was being used in the commission of
a drug crime or bought with the pro
ceeds of the crime

Gilley can sell
properties
HOUSTON (AP) — Country-
western singer Mickey Gilley can
start selling about 25 properties* in
cluding the famous (olleyir night
club in Pasadena, owned try him and
a former business partner, in order
to satisfy a nearly $20 million
judgment against the former part
ner, a Judge ruled
Attorneys for Pasadena business
man Sherwood Cryer had asked
State District Judge Di.vid West to is
sue a temporary injunction to stop
the real estate from being sold The
judge, however, denied the request
Monday
Gilley s attorney. Tom Alexander,
said the appraisal and sale of the
properties in Texas and one in
Nashville. Tenn.. will begin immedi-
ate|y
T feel a lot more secure about the
judgment now that we have control
of the properties, he said, but sell
ing off all of the buildings and land
will still not fulfill the judgment,
The judgment is near 820 million
now because of interest earned in
the past year, he said Cryer lost a
817 million judgment to Gilley last
year for breach of fiduciary dutv.
The properties Include the 17-
acre Gilley * Club and rodeo arena,
where the movie “Urban Cowboy”
was filmed, other businesses, stores
and vacant lots which are mostly in
Pasadena, he said. The Nashville
property on the popular Musk* Row
has been appraised at 81.8 million,
he said
Cryer said after Monday's ruling
that he is broke
They broke me, so I have noth
ing else to give, he said "But I m
planning on staying if I just have my
nrttdiga.”
