What we know..

Owns aquarium/pet store in Matamoros, MX, and disappeared during the battles between the Mexican military and the Gulf Cartels and Zetas in that city, beginning on Nov.5, 2010. US Consulate has only ascertained that he is not in any hospital in that city or surrounding cities, and nothing more. They say they are not able to do any searching themselves but must rely on the Mexican authorities.

Please reach out to the family and let them know they're not alone. We need to get a Texas campaign going -- get family and friends and the rest of the network calling your senators about her, John, Arturo, Ron, and the rest. This is insane.

Another missing person.... Mexican citizen married to an American citizen living in Mission TX... went missing on highway 2 between Nuevo Laredo and Reynosa. Family has only had one phone call, demanding the ownership papers on the Tahoe that the woman was driving. Story says FBI can't get involved because woman was Mexican citizen, even her husband and four children are all US citizens. Video link has a commercial first....

If you missed Jeff on the BBC, you can get it online at http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/fast_track/9478002.stm 

The focus is Michael Dixon's story, but does talk to other families and there is a very nice segment with Jeff... WTG Jeff!
