Condolances to a Cold Blooded Killer and His Badge

Let us all play the violin strings in memory of yet another tin badge coward who murdered his wife in cold blood. On Sunday morning in Forth Worth Texas a “decorated” police officer murdered his wife, Makasha Colonvega, 34, while their young children were present in the home.

Another glorified newspaper write-up about a cold blooded man, who was a police officer.

The children will never recover from this traumatic event. It will be with them for the remainder of their lives. Makasha Colonvega was just 5 months shy of completing her medical residency to become a doctor.

To those who tell you or say they knew this tin badge killer oh "so well". Or that he was under stress or having "problems", do not know the devastating lives these cowardly tin badge officers, lead, behind closed doors.

As the daughter, from a law enforcement family, whose detective father murdered my mother before taking his own life, the continued praises sung by those who worked and knew him well, continue after nearly twenty years.

There is no place for the wife of a law enforcement officer to turn when they require assistance. They are not provided important training on difusing situations which can be life threatening to they and their kids.

If a Police Department is going to teach officers to be effective on the streets, shouldn't those who marry these men be provided similar training?

It would, afterall, save their lives.

Legal System Receive's Failing Grade

Benito Casanova-Wanted For Questioning

Police found Sophia Garcia dead in her apartment with a garbage bage tied over her face. She died from trauma to the head. No suprise, Sophia had an Order of Protection. As do a lot of these murder victims of late. All being slaughtered, for wanting out of their abusive relationships. You can go to court and seek a paper trail, but once you do, the victim must do everything in their power to move away as far as possible. Benito Casanova carefully thought and planned the crime. Including going over to the school on Friday like the "good parent" to pick up the children. He and the kids, no surpise, have not been seen since. Would A GPS tracking device have slowed the efforts of Benito and his plans? Yes. But he would have been a "good coward" until he met the obligations under the court order. Regardless, he would have followed through with his plans sooner or later. A lot of finger pointing will occur in the next couple of days as theDepartment of Human Services and the Children's school play the game of "we never received the call". The school was contacted when the two year order of protection was in place. But the school denies anyone ever contacted them. But, in fact the department of human services a city of Chicago agency made contact because they were providing services to the mother and kids. Must be a language barrier?

Benito also banked on the fact that Sophia had very little resouces to just pick up and go. She should have been directed to agencies such as Mujeres Latinas En Accion an agency in the community, dedicated to providing services to the Latino Community. They would have directed Sophia into a shelter. Assisted with legal services assisting in moving her far enough away, perhaps even out of the State and she would have been alive and I, would have no reason to write such a story.

Services for families in Illinois and across the country are being slashed in half. Agencies whose budgets are in crisis, holding in their palms, literally, thousands of women and children's lives, like placing a band aid on an infected area that never heals. Because the "system has tied" agencies hands.

What must happen is that everyone across the country, including those lovely politicians with whom we vote into office, sit at the table of reality. The mousetrap is broken. Now lets come to the table like grown-ups and fix it!
