ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. —
The former mayor of a small New Mexico border town has pleaded guilty to charges he participated in a gun smuggling ring that federal prosecutors said sent hundreds of guns into Mexico, authorities said Wednesday.
Eddie Espinoza faces 65 years in prison. The 51-year-old was arrested in March along with two other Columbus town officials - police chief Angelo Vega and former trustee Blas Gutierrez. The three were among a dozen people charged in the federal sting.
Columbus sits just north of Palomas, Mexico, a town that has seen increasing violence as drug cartels wage war against one another, the Mexican Army and police.

Sureño and Norteño gangs, a press release from the Medford Police said.
Lt. Bob Hansen said the gang problem is on the rise in Southern Oregon ....“It’s getting worse in Medford. I’ve been here since the 1980 and I think gangs have finally moved up from, maybe from the South. More than it used to be.”

Supporters of the bill (HR1505), however, said the current setup — a memorandum of understanding between DHS and federal land-management agencies — makes it impossible for Border Patrol to do its job.
“There’s a problem here in that Border Patrol is being restricted,” said Rep. Rob Bishop, R-Utah, the bill’s sponsor. “They are not the problem.”
