A driver called the Cameron County, Texas, Juvenile Justice Department kitchen to report a delivery: 800 pounds of fajitas. What fajitas? The agency doesn’t serve them to its inmates. What fajitas? The ones the driver had been delivering every week for nine years. It turns out department employee Gilberto Escamilla had the day off, and District Attorney Luis V. Saenz says Escamilla knew what fajitas: he was stealing them. “He would literally, on the day he ordered them, deliver them to customers he had already lined up,” the D.A. says.
