...there as a correspondent for the Wall Street Journal. What I saw upon arriving was a city that looked more like a Brazilian favela than one of America's most crucial ports. Riding through the streets on the back of a boat steered by a pair of shotgun-toting sheriff's deputies from Indiana, I saw colorless bodies bobbing in the water, often tethered to light posts. Water covered the top of the doors of my parents' church. God, my mom says, told her to flee the city a day or so before the storm's arrival...

But the re-examination of the law has sparked a round of finger-pointing between city and federal governments. The San Francisco Sheriff's Department claims it turned Ramos' personal information over to immigration officers at ICE - who say they never received any documentation and only heard of Ramos after his release.

...young women screamed when Kelly was led by his beefy bodyguards out of the courtroom. "Everybody deserves their day in court, and I'm going to be here until they leave the Kells alone," Sierra Horne, 19, said as she was pushed into a descending elevator by a sheriff's deputy after screaming too loudly at Kelly. So deep is Horne's loyalty, she claims to have skipped two days of school just to attend the trial. About 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, Kelly strutted outside the courthouse on Chicago's South Side. "We love you, R-Uh," Horne's crew...

...April 3, Mankin was driving past the sheriff's office when he noticed a large number of black vehicles parked there. Curious, he called the dispatcher, but when the deputy started to talk, the phone was taken over by the Texas Rangers. The raid had begun. It had been a tightly held secret, known only to the sheriff. Court papers indicated the action had been prompted by a call from a young girl to a child abuse hotline - the state has yet to confirm they have located her and an FLDS spokesman says she does not exist. The Texas Department...
