Mexican drug lord “Shorty” busts out through long tunnel
by •
Joaquin “El Chapo” (or Shorty) Guzman has escaped from Altiplano prison near Mexico City. As the CNN story tells, his cohorts inside and out of prison are master tunnel builders and they built one for the boss. A mile long. It led to a slum where El Chapo popped up and disappeared. Now the media is hyping the prospects that Shorty is after Donald Trump. Trump, for his part, is saying simply “I told you so,” in keeping with his cynical view of Mexican law enforcement.

Kiev’s new traffic cops solemnly vow not to be corrupt
by •
Don’t bribe me
Kiev has commissioned a new 2000-strong traffic police contingent all of whom have taken an oath that specifically forbids them from taking bribes. It is an interesting requirement but not very surprising. The administration of parking tickets and minor traffic infractions is among the most corrupt activities in eastern Europe and the former Soviet republics. It is not uncommon for drivers, including vehicles, to be in effective held hostage until someone pays the traffic officer enough money to go away. Here in South Bayview, of course, our traffic officers are honest to a fault. That’s if you can call parking their cars where ever they like honest This picture is from 2013. Park as I say, not as I park.
