ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — School district worker lost more than $304,000, according to the Rio Grande Sun
From the time he got the case, Rio Arriba County Sheriff's detective Adam Archuleta knew that gambling was going to be a major factor in the massive embezzlement in the Jemez Mountain School District.
'A lot of people had seen them at casinos,' Archuleta said, referring to Kathy Borrego and her family. 'That was definitely going to be a factor, but we did not know exactly how much money was being spent there.'
And while neither Archuleta nor the 1st Judicial District's Office can say exactly how much admitted embezzler Kathy Borrego and her family spent at casinos, Española's Rio Grande Sun reported in its Thursday edition that Borrego and Jerry Archuleta, her partner, lost more than $304,0000.
Borrego, the former business manager who has pleaded guilty to embezzling from the tiny school district, is on house arrest awaiting sentencing. The state Auditor's Office pegs the amount stolen at $3.4 million.
Free casino slots heart of gold. Michael Jones, Borrego's criminal defense attorney, did not respond to a message left at his office late Thursday.
Citing casino records, the Sun reported that Borrego and her husband gambled at least $371,649 at four casinos between 2001 and 2010 and that they apparently lost $304,290. The newspaper said it was only able to obtain records for Pojoaque Pueblo's three casinos and for Sandia Resort outside Albuquerque.
'Kathy Borrego is the tip of the iceberg,' said Guy Clark, executive director of the New Mexico Coalition Against Gambling. 'We see these cases when it involves some public agency.'
He said what doesn't frequently show up is the embezzlement that's occurring in private businesses as problem gamblers steal to feed their addiction.
The Sun did not disclose how it obtained the casino records.

Archuleta, the Rio Arriba detective, said Thursday a grand jury subpoenaed casino records related to Borrego from the New Mexico Gaming Control Board. He said the jury sought player card records from area casinos and from casinos all the way to Albuquerque. Those records have since been turned over to the 1st Judicial District Attorney's Office, he said.
District Attorney Angela 'Spence' Pacheco said ethical rules prohibit her from releasing those records until after Borrego is sentenced on May 10.
Borrego has pleaded guilty to six counts of embezzlement, four counts of income tax evasion and a single count of engaging in an official act to enhance her personal financial interest. She faces anything from probation to 41½ years in prison and a fine of up to $54,000.

Reservation[edit]
Gateway lifestyle casino houses for sale. The La Posta Reservation (32°44′04″N116°23′28″W / 32.73444°N 116.39111°W) is a federal Indian reservation located within the southern Laguna Mountains west of Boulevard, in eastern San Diego County, California. It is less than 10 miles (16 km) north of the US-Mexico Border. The reservation is 3,556 acres (14.39 km2) large with a population of approximately 18.[5] The reservation borders the Cleveland National Forest and is accessed only by one unpaved road that is usually fenced off to prevent trespassers.[3]
It was established in 1893.[6] In 1973, none of the 4 enrolled members lived on the reservation.[2]
History[edit]
Mission Indians are indigenous people of California who were forcibly removed from their lands and placed in Franciscan Missions during the mid-16th century because of Spanish settlers. There are approximately 21 Franciscan Mission within California starting from San Jose and ending in San Diego. Many of the Missions we see today were built by native tribes who forced to create these monuments by corporal punishment
Most of the Indians who lived within these Missions across California, were regional natives who had resided within these lands for centuries. The La Posta Band of Diegueño Mission Indians are a sub group of the Kumeyaay band of Indians. Evidence shows that these tribes have been present within California for more than 12,000 years. The La Posta Mission Indians share the same ancestral roots as the Kumeyaay people which began with the association the California Coast and Valley tradition and the Desert tradition.
Language[edit]
La Posta Band Mission Indians speak three languages English, Kumeyaay, and Tiipai The natives can speak three languages based on the geographical area in which they live. Tiipai is mainly seen in tribes of northern Baja California and Southern San Diego, which is known as Southern Diegueño. Since the reservation of this tribe expands 4,000 acres, some of its territory extends towards Yuma Arizona where their closest relatives reside. Tiipai belongs to the Yuman branch of the greater Hokan linguistic family.[7] This is one of the reasons why they have adopted the Southern Diegueño language. With regards to Kumeyaay, this tribe is able to speak this language based on its ancestral origins that derived from the Kumeyaay tribe, which they share similar languages, cultural and spiritual practices.
Government[edit]
The La Posta Band is headquartered in Boulevard. They are governed by a democratically elected tribal council. Gwendolyn Parada is their current tribal chairperson.[8] The La Posta Reservation is governed by a general council. Elected council members include a chairperson, a vice-chairperson, and a business manager. Elected members serve two-year terms, and the general council meets twice a year. The band is organized under an IRA constitution that was approved on March 5, 1973.
Economic development[edit]
The tribe owned and operated the La Posta Casino and Marie's Restaurant in Boulevard which closed in 2012.[9]
Education[edit]
The tribes education comes from the Mountain Empire Unified School District that was founded in 1923. The economic development of the district has increased over that last few years allowing it to now consist of two elementary schools, Pre-K through 8th grade; two elementary schools, Pre-K through 5th grade; two middle schools, 6th through 8th grade; one high school; an Alternative Education Program and a Transition Program which serves Special Education students after high school, ages 18 to 22.[10]
