Show Notes
Tranquelino Benito Romero, a former Taos High School student, is back in the news after a high-speed police chase and new criminal charges. Hes accused of crashing a truck into a gas meter, leading deputies on a pursuit, and being found with guns and cocaine. Romero was previously released on bail for charges including DUI, criminal damage, and negligent use of a deadly weapon. His upcoming trial is connected to federal lawsuits from his high school days, alleging he sexually assaulted two female students. The lawsuits claim the school district knew about his behavior but did nothing, leading to a federal judge denying their qualified immunity defense. Romeros criminal history includes a battery charge and out-of-state DUI and pistol charges. As his criminal case and lawsuits progress, the spotlight remains on Taos for accountability.
