fouths accused
f rustling cattle
o pay for spring
teak condo
KINGSVILLE (AP) — Pay-
g for a condo during spring
reak was the motive for 10
oungsters accused of rustling
[9 head of cattle, their lawyer
id Monday.
“They wanted to party with
|he money. That’s all they
anted, to rent a condo,” said
icardo Soliz of Premont, who
presents all 10 defendants.
Officials say the defendants
pparently stole the cattle
om the Santa Rosa Ranch on
ree occasions dating back to
[anuary and sold some of the
imals at a livestock auction
Alice. The money was de-
osited in a bank account in
e name of one of the youths.
“They were just kids. They
Ijift a paper trail a mile wide
nd everything pointed to
em,” Soliz said.
Soliz and Assistant District
ttorney Vincent Gonzalez
id the defendants will likely
ter a plea agreement that in-
udes $4,000 in restitution to
bert East of Kenedy County,
ner of the cattle. Some of
|ie animals were recovered be
fore being sold, Gonzalez said.
The agreement likely will in-
lude probation and community
\tkins fervice, the attorneys said. The
etrib maximum penalty for cattle
ngs of lustling is two years’ probation.
■ “They don’t have a crirtiinal
history and they are young,”
y Gonzalez said.
lenate approves
jmoking ban in
state buildings
| AUSTIN (AP) — Smoked-
filled rooms at the Texas Capi
tol could become a thing of the
post under legislation approved
b> the Senate on Monday.
In f The bill to ban smoking in
state buildings and at state
agency hearings was sponsored
agency|w a former smoker. Sen. Mike
nzed a Boncrief, D-Eort Worth. He said
the prohibition would help pro-
leading (he health of state workers,
worlds “Everyone is aware of the
rely in(| ama g e secondary smoke does
as far as our health is con-
'(femed,” Moncrief said.
I ‘‘I think they’re also more
1 aware of the damage it does to
A/ our structures. And I heard a
* * I new concern ... that it also does
a tremendous amount of dam-
ead outfage to our computers,” he said.
The Senate sent the bill to
e House on a voice vote.
Sen. Peggy Rosson, D-El
aso, was recorded voting
ainst the measure. She said it
ould reduce state employees’
oductivity.
“It wastes a lot of employee
dy partitime, in my opinion,” Ms.
'Rosson said.
Hsmiss “With designated smoking
2r sity oi|areas, I could vote for that. But
lityseato say absolutely no place, I
think, is silly. It sends every-
worse body out to the curb. That does
n’t seem very productive to me.”
,h grant Legislative researchers said
s in jail Texas is one of six states that
iasn’t adopted anti-smoking
e abuzdegislation for state buildings.
i A survey of 24 state agencies
Keane found 14 with rules calling for
in’t like;8moke-free buildings. Others al
low smoking in designated ar
eas such as cafeterias, re->
rooms or private offices.
