Something very odd is happening in Pinal County. Showman Sheriff Babeu (McCain's ad campaign buddy) is saying the murder of two Latino men shot earlier this week in his county could have been committed by the mysterious drug cartels that (supposedly) grazed his deputy the day after the May 1st Immigration marches. Now Babeu is saying he has a smuggling corridor in his county that stretches from Mexico's border through Pinal County up to metro Phoenix. As proof, he has brought out the tired old picture from 3/18/10 that he tried to pass off to a Phoenix blogger as pictures of the perps who (supposedly) shot louie puroll. In reality, as I previously reported, that picture was taken by "Nighthawk" surveillance. The AZ National Guard wears carharrt jackets as the men wear in the picture; they carry assault weapons and they wear ski masks - as sheriff arpaio's men wear; as are worn in the picture.
Babeu is NOT releasing the 911 tape, he merely released a 2 second clip and a transcript. Initially, Babeu's spokesperson went on and on saying the tape was in Spanish, very short and they were cut off. Now, all of a sudden, Babeu has a very long, "clear as day" transcript in English with the 911 operator calling the caller "Omar" (have you ever heard of a Latino named Omar??) with the caller going on and on saying his shooting was in the same place deputy puroll was shot. Imagine that. You are dying in the desert and you go on and on saying you were shot where the deputy was (supposedly) shot, over and over again, just like the spin originally provided by the sheriff's office. Detectives say next to the dead men was a Bushmaster automatic rifle used by police officers for patrolling. It does not appear to be stolen.

Detectives say next to the dead men was a Bushmaster automatic rifle used by police officers for patrolling. It does not appear to be stolen.
Now we get to the bottom line of why Babeu and his crew are making this announcement: "Babeu said he doesn't believe the drug cartel problems will not be solved when SB 1070 becomes a law, or with President Obama's promise of 1,200 troops spread out among four border states.It will fall short. What is truly needed in 3,000 soldiers for Arizona alone," Babeu said.
Remember, I previously reported that an AZ newspaper reported Babeu lied about crime increasing in his county when his department's own report indicate crime has gone down.
It all becomes clear. For Babeu, it's all about Fame for Babeu, fueling the ANTI Immigration Reform frenzy (for votes) and lining the county pockets with Federal money! "Fame...remember Babeu's name!"
Now READ the transcript that sheriff babeu "says" is from one of the two latino men shot in his county. Remember, they said it was short, in spanish and they were cut off and could not speak about it initially; and remember, in the early videos he was clutching his blood soaked birth certificate:

Do you know what is missing in the transcript that I want to read?
Dispatcher: Do you know who shot you? What did they look like?
Aren't all dispatchers trained to ask: Who did it? Describe them.
Every 911 tape I have heard says this. The 911 dispatchers have scripts they follow.
I've managed call centers so I know this for a fact.
Where are these questions? And why aren't they asked? It is a very long transcript. Why are these questions missing? Why is the tape missing?
Or is this what they don't wan us to hear:
Caller: Two gringos with baseball caps and long guns from the Phoenix Rising rally.
Here is Governor Brewer’s statement. She said, “I have already asked the President to approve funding for an additional 250 National Guard personnel for the Joint Counter Narco-Terrorism Task Force to support federal, state and local law enforcement drug interdiction efforts.Using existing resources, I have directed General Salazar, to create additional “Nighthawk” ground surveillance capability with the Joint Task Force.These teams are armed, and use special night vision equipment in support of the U.S. Border Patrol.The additional personnel performing “Nighthawk” will result in an estimated 150 additional missions per year, and that number will continue to increase as federal funding becomes available.”
The governor has deployed the AZNG and they are assisting DHS in the area. There are several reports available on line that indicate this. Additionally, the AZNG does wear carharrt jackets. From the picture you can see they are all wearing the same style carharrt jackets, ski masks (as arpaio’s masked volunteers wear) and carrying assault weapons, as Brewer
