The Albuquerque Journal (subscription) has also been wondering about the lack of charges against Borrego and slams the District Attorney in a Monday editorial:
"Kudos for being thorough and trying to ensure this one doesn't slip through the cracks. But this is the same crack prosecutorial team that missed the 60-day deadline to go forward with either a grand jury indictment or preliminary hearing in the high-profile vehicular homicide case against Carlos William Fierro. The same DA's office that failed to object to a defense-proposed jury instruction that almost resulted in a mistrial for Fierro. The same official who said releasing the blood-alcohol concentration of DWI suspect Scott Owens in a high-profile, quadruple fatality would "jeopardize the integrity of the case." - Albuquerque Journal Editorial
I've talked to numerous people in the small communities surrounding the school district. They are getting quite frustrated with the District Attorney's office. They see Borrego roaming around town and wonder if she has spent all the money she allegedly stole...from them.
The District Attorney says there is still a phenomenal amount of evidence to be gathered.
Sometimes justice isn't swift, but sadly, when it takes a while for it to move, people grow suspicious and wonder about the competency of the authorities responsible for prosecuting.
