Griego Had a Failure to Appear Problem, Eleven Warrants for His Arrest Were Issued



State Senator Eric Griego

 From The Republic - What is up with the vetting of Congressional candidate Eric Griego by public employee unions and radical environmentalists? According to an article in the Albuquerque Journal Griego simply skipped out on court dates and also ignored judicial orders after getting tickets for speeding. Instead of paying the fines or showing up to contest the trafic violation charges Griego was a no-show. As a result, apparently eleven different arrest warrants were issued for Griego by Albuquerque Metropolitan Court judges between 2000 and 2007 for failing to appear at scheduled court hearings and/or missing court-ordered driver school programs for traffic citations.
It would seem that Griego feels that one set of rules applies to everyone else and another set of rules applies to him. Incredibly, Griego's campaign manager, Ed Yoon, says Griego addressed the violations, paid the fines and regrets the warrants. Yoon says they do not reflect on Griego's ability to represent Albuquerque in Congress. What would reflect on his ability? Read story here: News New Mexico
