Sunland peanut plant to open in March
The country's largest organic peanut
butter processor linked to a national salmonella outbreak says it plans to
fully reopen in March but didn't know when its products will be back in stores.
Sunland Inc. spokeswoman Katalin Coburn said Friday that the Portales-based
company has rehired employees at its peanut mill and will soon hire back
workers at the peanut butter mill.
The company's peanut processing and peanut
butter plant had been shuttered since the recall in September but the Food and
Drug Administration said last month it could reopen.
Sunland recalled more than
100 nut and nut butter products after the outbreak. Forty-one illnesses in 20
states were linked to the peanut butter.

The Santa Fe New Mexican reports that grandmothers, hunters and
young men and woman took the city up on its anonymous, no-questions-asked gun
buyback offer on Saturday.
All of the $12,500 in prepaid Visa cards set aside
for the first of three buyback events had been used up within the first two
hours of Saturday's event.
Serial numbers were checked on the guns, and one
handgun turned out to be stolen. It will be put into police evidence, and
police will attempt to contact the registered owner.
Police Chief Ray Rael says
he'll have to seek more money from the City Council if future buyback events
are as popular as Saturday's.

YAFL removes president following child porn charges
For her part, Carey Gonzales admits to watching the videos with her husband. She's now on administrative leave from her job as an educational assistant at Montezuma Elementary School. Fred Gonzales was the president of the NM Young American Football League. He was a volunteer with the league for years and served as a board member. The league removed him from the league Saturday morning and Jim Summers took over.
"We thought it was some sort of cruel prank the first words we got of this and then when we realized it wasn't a prank, we were speechless," Summers said. Fred and Carey Gonzales have two children who are now in state custody. Summers said Fred Gonzales went through multiple background checks while in the league.
"There were no red flags. We've discussed it among ourselves, and even now with the allegations, we still look back and say we don't see anything," he said. But Summers still wants to make everything available for law enforcement when it comes to this case. The league hired an independent attorney to guide the office through this time. But the league is not stopping there.
"We are going to bring an independent outside investigator to take a hard look at us and tell us where we can do things better," Summers said. The safety of children is the top priorty of the NM YAFL program, Summers wanted to ensure. He said the league will begin looking to hire the private investigator starting Monday. Read more
