Texas hate crime trial begins
LUBBOCK, Texas — Three buddies talked about "how good life would be" without African Americans, then drove around with a shotgun and shot three men in a bid to start a race war, the prosecution charges. One of the victims died.
Prosecutors say men spoke of a race war
The Associated Press
The three men, one described as a skinhead and two Hispanic cousins, go on trial today on federal hate crime charges. Prosecutors recently withdrew their intention to ask for the death penalty.
and his cousin, Ricky Rivera Muniga, 25, each are accused of shooting one victim on Oct. 16, 1994.
Roy Ray Martin, 20; El Trevino Muniga, who turns 21 tomorrow;
According to court documents, the three started the rampage after discussing how they hated African Americans, how they wish they never existed and how good life would be without them.
An indictment said they "d discussed their mutual hatred of Blacks, and how they wanted to start a revolution or race war that would involve killing Blacks."
Court records say officers seized a photograph of Adolf Hitler, a swastika and a Nazi flag from Martin's home.
They allegedly chose three victims at random, luring them to their car and shooting them, according to
Melvin Johnson, 37, was wounded in the chest and neck and died on the curb of Martin Luther King Boulevard. One of the other victims survived a wound to the jaw and the third was shot in one hand, costing him a finger.

U. S. District Judge Sam Cummings has issued a gag order in the case.
"It was a little scary because right after that happened, we didn't know if they had all of them," Wilson said. "You wonder how many more of them are out there."
Filipinos bury storm's victims
Rose Wilson, president of the Lubbock chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, praised police for arresting the suspects within about 70 minutes.
Typhoon Angela kills at least 500 people
The Associated Press
CALAUAG, Philippines — Inside the village hall, a middle-aged woman wept as she squatted before a row of four whit-washed coffins.
"These are my children. They're gone," Marina Regencia said yesterday, pointing to the coffins of her 10- and 8-year-old daughters, 4-year-old son and month-old son. A fifth child was missing.
Two hundred others were reported missing after the country's strongest storm in 11 years hit with 12-foot-high waves and flash floods. About 286,000 people remained in evacuation camps in Bicol, the region on the southeastern leg of Luzon, the Philippines' main island, where Angela stormed ashore, said Fortunato de Joras, executive director of the National Disaster Coordinating Council.
The children's bodies were among 37 fished out of Calauag Bay on Friday and Saturday, after the 140 mph winds of Typhoon Angela lashed the northern Philippines. The storm killed at least 500 people.
The winds tore off the roofs of many concrete and wooden houses and thatched huts. In one village, a cluster of houses was flattened. Schools were destroyed, their galvanized iron roofs and walls peeled open, twisted, and crumpled.
About 100 of the dead were from the fishing and coconut farming town of Calauag, a Quezon province town of 60,000 about 100 miles southeast of Marilla.
Like so many other families there, Regencia did not expect the storm to be so deadly.
Only three of Regencia's children
survived. Her husband said there had been too many children to save.
"We held on to a tree in the yard until the floods subsided." he said.
Pilino Romero, 57, thought he could save his daughter and three grandchildren by making them climb on a roof as floodwaters started rising about midnight Thursday.
"My daughter and grandchildren are gone. And my house is gone," Romero said. He said a water reservoir several mules away had burst and had swept at least 80 houses downstream.
Romero and his wife survived by clinging to a coconut tree for hours.
The storm cut electricity to one third of the country, destroyed at least $34.5 million in rice, coconut and other crops and damaged more than $38.5 million in buildings, roads and bridges, de Joras said.
