U.S. Attorney on APD DWI Corruption Case

This week on New Mexico in Focus, Executive Producer Jeff Proctor interviews U.S. Attorney Alexander Uballez about the federal investigation into alleged corruption at the Albuquerque Police Department’s DWI unit. In the first of a two-part discussion, Uballez sheds some light on the process of the investigation and Proctor asks why the U.S. Attorney took the unusual step to confirm the investigation earlier this year in letters to the city’s police chief and district attorney.

Journalist Patrick Lohmann of Source New Mexico sits down with two survivors of the Hermit’s Peak/Calf-Canyon Fire. In the first of two conversations, Lohmann asks both about the losses they have suffered and how they have helped neighbors in their community recover. Later, the pair speak on the lack of federal financial relief their community has received and why local leadership at FEMA needs to change.

This week, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced there are 257 Mexican Wolves, with 37 packs here in New Mexico and 23 in Arizona. At the end of January, the Our Land team joined federal and state biologists and veterinarians during the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s annual Mexican wolf count.
