Dozens honor MLK's legacy at ENMU in Roswell
On Monday morning, dozens gathered to celebrate and honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s legacy at Eastern New Mexico University in Roswell.
ROSWELL, N.M. – On Monday morning, dozens gathered to celebrate and honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s legacy at Eastern New Mexico University in Roswell.
Among those, professors and leaders in the community shared how the legacy of MLK played a role in their lives.
“I know today is we’re observing Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. And anytime I think about Dr. King, I think about my grandmother. She wanted so many people to know that your character and your education are the only thing, and your salvation are the only things that you have,” said Jamila Miller, assistant principal of Berrendo Middle School.
For some, it was a reminder to help others reach that goal.
“Dr. Martin Luther King wanted was people to fulfill their dreams, regardless of who they were, regardless of their skin color, but always based on their character, and the things that they were going to bring to society,” said Harun Williams, an ENMUR instructor. “So that’s one of the things when it comes to my students that I made sure I help them build their character, I help them find their place in society because I want society to be better. I want things to be better, not just for me, but for all the generations to come.”
Williams says the society has come a long way but still, there is a lot of work to do in hopes of a better future.
“As we remember Dr. King’s legacy, let’s promise to keep fighting for fairness, standing up for the right things, and working on making sure that everybody’s voice is heard. Together, we can build a future where equity is a reality for all, just as he dreamed,” said Williams.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife rereleased a wolf into Grand County this week after it had traveled into New Mexico, according to a news release.
The New Mexico Department of Game and Fish captured gray wolf 2403 and returned the animal to Colorado.
Colorado wildlife officials decided to release the wolf in Grand County yesterday because of the proximity to “an unpaired female gray wolf,” nearby prey populations and distance from livestock, according to the release.
“Gray wolf 2403 has been returned to Colorado and released in a location where it can best contribute to CPW’s efforts to establish a self-sustaining wolf population while concurrently attempting to minimize potential wolf-related livestock conflicts,” said acting director of CPW Laura Clellan, according to the release.
The wolf was once a member of the Copper Creek pack but departed from it this fall.
A memorandum of understanding between Colorado and Arizona, New Mexico and Utah requires that any gray wolves that leave Colorado and enter those states be returned. That was created in part to maintain the integrity of a Mexican wolf recovery program.
“We recognized during the planning process that we would need to have consideration and plans to protect the genetic integrity of the Mexican wolf recovery program, while also establishing a gray wolf population in Colorado,” said CPW’s Wolf Conservation Program Manager Eric Odell, according to the release.
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – A judge sentenced a New Mexico man to nearly 20 years in prison for distributing meth and having guns in his possession to use while doing so.
Court records indicate 43-year-old David Amaya sold meth from a trailer on his parents’ property in Anthony throughout July and August 2024. Agents executed a search warrant Aug. 22 and found 1.18 kilograms of meth, two firearms and ammunition in the trailer and a makeshift bathroom.
Amaya pleaded guilty to possession of meth with intent to distribute it. A judge sentenced him to 235 months in prison.
Once he is out, Amaya will face five years of supervised release.
The FBI’s Albuquerque Field Office and the Las Cruces Metro Narcotics Task Force investigated the case. Assistant U.S. Attorney Kirk Williams prosecuted it.
