On Monday's show: FIEL Houston executive director Cesar Espinoza was removed from the last Houston City Council meeting after he suggested city officials lied about the detention of an autistic 15-year-old boy. Emmanuel Gonzalez Garcia reportedly went missing nearly two weeks ago while selling fruit on the street with his mother. The boy ultimately ended up in federal custody.
We discuss that case and what it can tell us about how Houston police officers interact with federal officials, including ICE, as we talk with Matt DeGrood of the Houston Chronicle. Then, Espinoza joins us to share his concerns and why he believes he was removed from Wednesday’s meeting.
Also this hour: Today is the anniversary of the Saturday Night Massacre during Watergate. We revisit 2022 conversations about the lasting impact of the scandal and how it influenced film.
Then, veterinarian Dr. Lori Teller gives us the lowdown on the dangers of pets getting into Halloween candy as she answers your pet care questions.
And Kris Gardner from Houston Roundball Review previews the Rockets season, which tips off Tuesday night on the road against the champion Oklahoma City Thunder.
