This week on Voices of Taos, reporter Stephanie Gates talks with Lucas Salazar, Matanza Project Developer for the Taos County Economic Development Corporation.

Gates and Salazar talk about the challenges small producers face when trying to have their meat processed locally, as well as how a local processing facility would allow more money to remain in Taos County.

They also discuss the complexities involved in getting the matanza facility up and running and the  scarcity of current options available for local meat producers.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
