His mother spirited him away to Mexico at one point so he could evade some of his very light sentence.

Ok, so he's a piece of shit.

But still worth recognizing. Smile

Quote:In 1916, the bandit El Guapo and his gang collect protection money from the Mexican village of Santo Poco. Carmen, daughter of the village leader, searches for someone who can rescue her townspeople. Visiting a village church, she sees a silent film featuring The Three Amigos, a trio of gunfighters who protect the vulnerable from villains. Believing them to be real heroes, Carmen sends a telegram asking them to come and stop El Guapo.




I love that movie. The scene in which the trio sings "Blue Shadows on the Trail" is my favorite.

We were blitzed with news about this case.  We are in the far NE of the Dallas Metroplex, he's from the far SW.

Highly doubtful. TFG is a symptom of the illness, not the illness itself.
