Former Superior mayor Valenzuela to go to trial for theft Dec. 20 December 20 has been tentatively set as the date when the trial of former Superior mayor Jayme Valenzuela on theft charges will begin. Valenzuela stands accused of one count of theft (a class 5 felony) for making $2,300 in withdrawals for personal use from the Superior town debit card between August 2013 and December 2014.

The trial date was set at a pretrial conference on September 20 where Valenzuela appeared with his attorney Gary A. Husk of Husk Law Partners, Phoenix. Another pretrial conference is

set for October 20 at the Arizona Superior Court at 175 W. Madison in Phoenix.

The case is being prosecuted by Assistant Attorney General Sheila Madden.

The alleged wrongdoing that resulted in Valenzuela’s indictment on July 8 came to light last December when former Superior Town Clerk Rachelle Sanchez told the Town Council of four undocumented withdrawals of funds made at ATMs from the town debit card at Valenzuela’s disposal. The auditing firm of Colby & Powell LLC verified in January that there were eight undocumented withdrawals

2015 Dodge Ram 1500 Crew Laramie 4x4, EcoDiesel, Auto, A/C, Leather, 20,801 Miles, One Owner, Like New Was $50,472

and the Council ordered a criminal investigation.

Colby & Powell verified that two withdrawals made at the Wild Horse Pass Casino in Chandler, and the other six withdrawals occurred at various bank machines in Maricopa and Pinal Counties.

And although Valenzuela has refunded the funds and ATM fees, the Special Investigations Section (SIS) of the Arizona Attorney General probed the matter and determined that charges were warranted.

As reported earlier in the Superior Sun, SIS alleged that Valenzuela, who carried

the town debit card with himself instead of returning it to the Superior Town Hall between uses as was policy, used the town card on eight occasions when his personal banking card was low on funds and didn’t report any of the transactions.

Valenzuela has already paid a price for his actions. When he was indicted on the theft charge, he was terminated by the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office from his high-paid job as a commander in charge of contracts and supplies at the Pinal County Detention Center in Casa Grande.

Celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month

By John Hernandez Copper Area News September 15 was the beginning of National Hispanic Heritage Month, a time for Americans to celebrate, honor and learn about the many contributions Hispanics have made to the United States.

President Lyndon B. Johnson signed into law National Hispanic Heritage Week back in 1968. It was expanded to a month-long celebration in 1988 by President Ronald Reagan. The begin date was chosen as Sept. 15 because it is the date that the countries of El Salvador, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Honduras and Nicaragua all declared their independence in 1821. Mexico, Chile and Belize also celebrate their independence in September.

There are over 50.5 million Hispanic/Latinos in the United States making up nearly 17% of the population. They are the second fastest growing minority in the country next to Asians. Hispanics have been in what is now the United States since before the landing of the Pilgrims. They have been a part of American history from the beginning. During Hispanic Heritage Month communities will be celebrating the achievements and contributions of Hispanic and Latino Americans with community events, government sponsored activities and educational activities for students.

To honor Hispanic and Latino Americans some stories of their achievements and history will appear in the paper throughout the month.

Marcario Garcia Marcario Garcia was born on Jan. 20, 1920 in Villa de Castaños Mexico in the state of Coahuila. He was one of 10 children born to Josefa and Luciano Garcia. When Marcario was four years old his family immigrated to the United States and settled in Sugarland, Texas where they worked in the fields picking crops. In November 1942, Macario was working as a field hand when he was drafted into the United States Army.

Marcario participated in the D-Day landings at Normandy in June 1944 where he was wounded. After his wounds healed he returned to his unit and the front lines. On Nov. 27, 1944 near the town of Grosshau, Germany, Marcario, acting as a squad leader, found himself and his men pinned down by German machine gun nests. The Americans came under fire from mortars and artillery as well as the machine gun fire. Marcario although wounded in the shoulder and foot crawled forward across ground with little cover.

He advanced towards the machine gun nests taking them out with hand grenades. He killed six Germans and captured four allowing his men to move forward and capture their objective. For his valorous actions he was nominated for the Congressional Medal of Honor and promoted to the rank of Sergeant.

On Aug. 23, 1945 at a ceremony at the White House, President Harry Truman presented Marcario Garcia the Medal of Honor.

Marcario became the first Mexican immigrant to receive our nation’s highest honor. He also received a Bronze Star for Valor and a

Purple Heart. He would later receive the Meritor Militar, Mexico’s equivalent of the Medal of Honor from the Mexican government.

A month later, Marcario returned to Sugarland, Texas a hero.

Texas newspapers told his story and he was invited to meetings and banquets around the state. The League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) honored him at a special ceremony in Houston.

One night in September in the small town of Richmond a few miles south of Houston, Marcario while wearing his uniform entered the Oasis Cafe to get a bite to eat. The owners refused to serve him because of his Mexican heritage. Outraged that he had fought for his country but was being refused service, he began arguing with the owners. It soon turned into a fight and the police were called. One of the owners struck Marcario on the back with a baseball bat.

The police took Marcario to the police station but did not arrest him even though they later claimed that he was drunk and had fought with them. A few days after the incident, Walter Winchell told the story to the nation on his popular radio show. He talked about the prejudice in Texas and asked the question of how an American hero could be denied service after risking his life for his country fighting for liberty and justice for all.

A few days later, Marcario was arrested and charged with aggravated assault. It was alleged that he had struck the female owner of the Oasis Café and had damaged some of the café’s property.

Marcario denied committing any violence. LULAC came to the support of Marcario and soon many citizens began donating money for Garcia’s defense. Vice President of the Richmond chapter of LULAC Johnny Herrera was a defense attorney and became Garcia’s lawyer. Herrera had also been the one that notified Walter Winchell about the story. Texas newspaper editorials soon began taking up Marcario’s cause and disparaging the Fort Bend County Continued on page 12

By Andrew Luberda Superior Sun At first glance, the No. 2-ranked Superior football team’s 72 – 26 victory on its Homecoming against Ft. Thomas last Friday looked as dominant as any of the other Panthers’ performances so far this season.

But sometimes looks can be deceiving.

At least, that’s according to head coach Ryan Palmer, who saw enough to know his team was not at its best versus the Apaches, despite reaching a season-high in points scored.

“I didn’t think it was our strongest performance,” Palmer told the Superior Sun. “It goes along with any Homecoming week; there are a lot of distractions and other things going on.”

“We had some missed assignments on the defensive side,” he continued. “Overall, we did have some strong points, including our passing game. We were able to get to the ball into our playmakers’ hands.”

Even at less than their best, the Panthers’ are still pretty good, as evidenced by their seven forced turnovers, including a pick six by sophomore Steven Ybarra, who also scored a rushing touchdown on offense.

Senior quarterback Nicolaus Cruz threw for four touchdowns and rushed for three more as he continued to look every bit the Player of the Year candidate he’s been all season. Senior Edgar Galindo added a rushing touchdown before exiting the game with an injury. Marcos Bueno and Austin Navarrette each had two receiving touchdowns in the win.

The Panthers have three games left in the regular season, including this Friday on the road against a surprising Duncan team.

“We need to continue to improve and not become complacent,” Palmer said. “It’s a long road to get where we want to be and if we’re not improving every day that road gets even tougher.”

“These kids (have the) experience,” he added. “(They) will continue to work together to overcome each obstacle on our path.”

At second glance, it appears the only obstacle in their path could be themselves. Palmer is aiming to eliminate it.

Friday’s kickoff at Duncan is scheduled for 7 p.m.

• In 2016 we all voted to reduce the tax rate by 13 cents or 3%.

• “Chicken Little” Sorensen believes the sky is falling because a Republican controlled board raised the tax rate by 7 pennies over 2 years!!

cal and legal establishment. He was a former attorney general and governor of the state of Texas. He had been a federal judge before stepping down to run for governor. He would be reappointed as a federal judge by President Truman following the Marcario Garcia incident. He was a rarity in Texas, a true liberal Democrat.

The authorities of Fort Bend County, seeing the writing on the wall as well as the mounting criticism by the media, quietly dropped all charges against Marcario. Marcario would become a U.S. citizen in 1947. He would marry and raise three children. He would rise to the rank of Sergeant Major in the Army Reserve. He worked as a counselor for the Veteran’s Administration (VA).

On Nov. 21, 1963, Marcario greeted President John F. Kennedy at the Rice Ballroom in Houston at a gathering of Hispanic civil rights advocates, veterans and political activists. The President spoke on the subjects of American foreign policy towards Latin American countries and the importance of recognizing and acknowledging Hispanic organizations such as LULAC. First Lady Jacqueline gave a speech in fluent Spanish of encouragement and hope for the Hispanic community. This unprecedented meeting with Hispanics by the President is considered by many to be the beginning of the emergence of the Latino vote in the U.S. The next day Kennedy was assassinated.

Marcario would work for the V.A. for 25 years. He even volunteered to go to South Vietnam in 1968 and counsel soldiers who were returning home. He was killed in a car accident in 1972. He was buried in the Houston National Cemetery with full military honors. The city of Houston renamed a street in his honor. In 1983 Vice President George Bush dedicated Houston’s new Marcario Garcia Army Reserve Center. A middle school in Sugarland is also named after him.

he was removed as mayor of Superior in a recall election.

If convicted of the charges, Valenzuela could face a maximum penalty of 2 years/6 months in jail. However if the jury finds that Valenzuela’s refunding the misused funds within a month after the transactions became public to be a mitigating factor, he could get off with as little as probation, a spokesman for Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich said.

All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law, the spokesman added.

Traveling by bicycle across the vast empty spaces of the United States with no companions, Rainer Jendryan is on a journey of self-discovery and spirituality.

Rainer, last week, was found sitting on a porch in the Town of Superior taking in the scenic view of Apache Leap Mountain. The 49-year-old firefighter from Germany is on a three-month US bike tour. His plan is to travel from the west coast to the east coast on his bicycle.

Back home in Bayern, Munich, he likes to use his vacations to take 14-day bike tours and hike in the mountains. He has saved up three years of his vacation time to make this trip to the US. Rainer arrived in the US on Sept. 3. He started in San Francisco and has made his way across California and into Arizona. He bikes 50 to 70 miles a day. His bike, which he brought with him from Germany, is loaded down with 44 pounds of gear. He carries a tent and cooking utensils— everything he needs to camp. So far he has only stayed in a motel once, preferring to settle into campsites when he stops for the night.

One of the biggest challenges Rainer faces on his journey is the language barrier. He is not fluent in English and relies on his phone to help translate. He also uses his phone to help navigate and stay in touch with friends back home. He charges up his phone battery in restaurants and at campsites.

From Arizona, Rainer is heading off to New Mexico. The end of his tour will find him in Florida on Nov. 28. From there, Rainer and his tour bike will head back to Germany.

Reporter Cat Brown does not speak German so the entire interview with Rainer was conducted using a translator website on a smartphone.
