 More than six months ago, nearly 500 pounds of marijuana were discovered aboard a Van Horn school bus that was returning home from Presidio carrying student athletes. When the driver stopped in Marfa to begin clean-up of the bus and allow students a break, he discovered several duffle bags in the under-carriage compartments. He immediately informed two Border Patrol agents who happened to be in the convenience store where they had stopped.
The Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) in Alpine took custody of the case and since that time, little, if anything, has been disclosed on the progress of the investigation. According to Sheriff Oscar Carrillo, the DEA is not communicating with local agencies.
