(Ed.'s Note: One of our seven readers alerted us to this photo of our friend Reynaldo "Rey" Montanaro, a person well known in local business and political circles. We don't know the details of the events leading to the assault charges against him, but we have always known him to be level-headed in our dealings with him. But he is well-known in the community and has helped candidates try to gain political office so that makes him a public person.
As the Brownsville P.D. inmate website states: "All suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law." We wish him the best and hope he survives the glare of public scrutiny.)
