BRIEFLY Oregon woman pleads guilty to striking, carrying man on car EUGENE (AP) — An Oregon woman has pleaded guilty to hitting a pedestrian and carrying him on top of her car for 11 blocks before dumping the man along a side road. The 67-year-old man died from his injuries. Isabel McDaniel, 31, of Veneta pleaded guilty Thursday to criminally negligent homicide in the Dec. 11, 2014 death of Daniel Ortiz-Reynaga, the Register-Guard newspaper reported. McDaniel was sentenced to seven years and eight months in prison, but will be eligible to have that term reduced by a year or more for good behavior. McDaniel pleaded guilty to a number of crimes Thursday, including driving while intoxicated, reckless driving, tampering with evidence and hit-and-run driving. Authorities say McDaniel drove more than a mile with Ortiz-Reynaga on the top of her car before removing him. Police found the man lying in the road after someone called 911 to report seeing the body. He was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Court documents say McDaniel’s husband helped her hide evidence. He is scheduled for trial on Feb. 9. Police: Noise dispute may have prompted Oregon man’s killing KLAMATH FALLS (AP) — Court records say the murder of an Oregon man may have been prompted by an argument over noise at a motel. The Herald and News reports that documents say a woman told Klamath Falls detectives that 57-year-old Rick William Aston knocked on the door of her motel room on Jan. 2 and asked the group staying there to be quiet. The documents say the woman told of¿cers 26-year-old Matthew Dean Reyes went outside and was acting strangely when he returned. Klamath County Major Crimes detectives are searching for Reyes, who they suspect may have killed Aston. Police discovered Aston’s body early Sunday. A friend had called police when Aston didn’t show up for his 6:30 p.m. work shift. Police say Aston was killed by a cut to the neck. Ex-sergeant gets probation for misconduct PORTLAND (AP) — A Washington County sheriff’s sergeant who resigned following allegations of sexual misconduct has been sentenced to two years of probation. The Oregonian reports that Sgt. Bob Ray says 40-year-old Daniel Cardinal pleaded no contest to of¿cial misconduct as part of a plea deal and was sentenced Thursday. The agreement also calls for Cardinal’s law enforcement certi¿cation to be revoked. Cardinal was never arrested in the case and faced no charge until Thursday’s hearing, which wasn’t listed on the public court docket. Cardinal resigned in May after the sheriff’s of¿ce received an anonymous letter stating that he and other deputies had sex while on duty, sexually harassed female colleagues and engaged in other misconduct. Cardinal and two other deputies were placed on administrative leave during the investigation. Sex offender arrested after police sting PORTLAND (AP) — A 76-year-old man has been arrested after arranging to meet with someone he thought was a 14-year-old girl for sex. The Oregonian reports that the Kelso, Washington, man set the meetup after communicating with a Cowlitz County detective. According to the sheriff’s of¿ce, the man was told he was talking to a teen and set up a meeting anyway. The man was booked without bail into the Cowlitz County Jail. The man is a registered sex offender and was convicted of child molestation in 1998. East Oregonian Page 7A Mexican drug lord ‘El Chapo’ recaptured MEXICO CITY (AP) — The world’s most-wanted drug lord was captured for a third time in a daring raid Friday by Mexican marines, six months after he tunneled out of a maximum security prison in a made-for-Hol- lywood escape that deeply embarrassed the government and strained ties with the United States. Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto announced the capture of Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman, writing in his Twitter account: “mission accomplished: we have him.” Few had thought Guzman would be taken alive, and few now believe Mexico will want to try to hold him a third time in Mexican prisons. He escaped from maximum-security facilities in 2001 and on July 11, 2015, the second breakout especially humiliating for the Pena Nieto administration, which only held him for less than 18 months. The U.S. has sought his extradition, though Mexico in the past has said he would serve sentences here ¿rst. But Pena Nieto gave a brief live message Friday afternoon that focused heavily on touting the competency of his adminis- tration, which has suffered a series of embarrassments and scandals in the ¿rst half of his presidency. “The arrest of today is very important for the government of Mexico. It shows that the public can have con¿dence in its institutions,” Pena Nieto said. “Mexicans can count on a govern- ment decided and determined to build Guzman a better country.” Guzman was apprehended after a shootout with Mexican marines in Los Mochis, a seaside city in Guzman’s home state of Sinaloa, said a federal of¿- cial who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to be quoted by name. He said Guzman was taken alive and was not wounded. Five people were killed and one Mexican marine wounded in the clash at a house. It was unclear if Guzman was there or nearby when the raid was under way. Another law enforcement of¿cial said Guzman was captured at a motel on the outskirts of Los Mochis. Given Guzman’s penchant for escaping through tunnels, the details of his capture, once they are released by Mexican of¿cials, are sure to be startling. After his ¿rst capture in Guatemala in June 1993, Guzman was sentenced to 20 years in prison. He reportedly made his 2001 escape from the maximum security prison in a laundry cart, though some have discounted that version. His second escape last July was even more audacious. He slipped down a hole in his shower stall in plain view of guards into a mile-long tunnel dug from a property outside the prison. The tunnel was complete with ventilation, lights and a motorbike on rails, illus- trating the extent to which corruption was involved in covering up such an elabo- rate operation. In the United States, the Drug Enforcement Adminis- tration hailed the capture as proof of the close relationship between the two countries. “The arrest is a signi¿cant achievement in our shared ¿ght against transnational organized crime, violence, and drug traf¿cking,” a DEA statement said. The U.S. Justice Depart- ment commended the working relationship as well. “I salute the Mexican law enforcement and military personnel who have worked tirelessly in recent months to bring Guzman to justice,” Attorney General Loretta Lynch said. A Mexican law enforce- ment of¿cial said authorities located Guzman several days ago, based on reports he was in Los Mochis. The of¿cial, who was not authorized to be quoted by name, said authorities had even searched storm drains in the area. In 2014, Guzman escaped capture by Àeeing through a network of interconnected tunnels in the drainage system in Culiacan, the Sinaloa state capital. The Mexican Navy said in a statement that marines acting on a tip raided a home in Los Mochis before dawn. They were ¿red on from inside the structure, it said. Five suspects were killed and six others arrested. The marine’s injuries were not life threatening.
