A woman arrested on voter fraud charges just two weeks ago was arrested again Friday afternoon on new charges.
Modesta Vela, 60, was arrested Friday afternoon at the nonprofit food pantry in Roma, confirmed Brenda Lee, spokesperson for the Starr County Special Crimes Unit.
SCU investigators served Vela with four arrest warrants related to voter fraud, Lee said, which 229th District Attorney Omar Escobar clarified were for charges of tampering with a government record. Escobar said those records, in this case, referred to voter registration applications.
A bond of $15,000 was set for each count.
The arrest was a result of a complaint filed with the Starr County Elections Administration, which Escobar said was then forwarded to his office.
Investigators from the DA’s office previously arrested Vela on Oct. 4 on charges of illegal voting, knowingly possessing a ballot or ballot envelope of another person with the intent to defraud, and election fraud, in addition to a misdemeanor unlawful assistance of a voter charge.
Vela was released on bond later that evening.
Escobar noted that Vela had assisted over 200 voters with their mail-in ballots earlier this year, a matter he said was still under investigation.
Vela’s attorney, J.M. “Chuy” Alvarez, said he could not comment at this time as he did not have enough information.
I wonder if she’s one of those hot gypsy dancing girls.
Always nice to identify location when it is not mentioned in the article itself.

I’ve added Texas as a Keyword. It’s acceptable and encouraged to add the state in parenthesis to a thread title. FYI.
Re: Location; sorry, didn’t know where it was. I thought Butte County was in Montana earlier today - boy was I wrong ...
CRIPES...
Why do always reside in Texas?!
guilty!
Multiple her with hundreds or even thousands of illegal criminals doing this all across the state of Texas!! I believe this will be the biggest voting fraud spectacle ever seen in our nation!!
Ever notice that Christ has BOTH his feet pierced by a single nail? Meanwhile the other guys have one nail per foot, right..?
They gypsies say that as the Romans were whipping Christ to the Cruxifiction site that he stumbled, losing one of the two nails:
A gypsie boy snatched it up and ever since, Gypsies say, this lost nail stands as a type of Gypsy/God Covenant whereby God says it's okay for gypsies to steal (the final reasoning is a little unclear to me).
Every Good Friday all the East Coast malls are on high alert for big busses of gypsies showing up for an all day Fest of Stealing; ordinarily dishonest, they really uncork it on Good Friday.

Well, “When in Roma . . .”
The reason election fraud is being discovered so much in Texas recently is because they are looking. States that aren’t looking don’t find any election fraud.
Why is she allowed to do this a second time, lock her up!
Hard for me to remember what his housekeeper looked like, but I do remember she was not all that attractive. It may be here, or a relative. 8>)
