Infantry Officer Course ― changes that top Marines say are not attempts to water down standards, but to more accurately replicate today’s real-world requirements.

Recent changes include the number of evaluated hikes required to pass the course, and the removal of the physically demanding Combat Endurance Test as a strict requirement to graduate.

Under the new requirements, only three of those nine hikes will be evaluated, and Marines will have to pass all three evaluated hikes in order to graduate.

Border Patrol agents assigned to the Rio Grande Valley Sector recovered the skeletal remains of four migrants attempting to circumvent immigration checkpoints in South Texas. Only two identification documents were found with the deceased.
On Valentine’s Day, agents assigned to the Falfurrias Border Patrol Station and Brooks County Sheriff’s Office deputies received a call from a rancher that discovered a set of skeletal remains. The agents went to the scene and recovered the remains, according to information provided to Breitbart Texas by U.S. Customs and Border Protection Officials. No identification documents were found with the deceased migrant.

The following day agents and deputies received two separate notices from ranchers about the discovery of additional remains. One of the deceased victims of cartel-connected human smugglers had a Salvadoran identification document near their remains. The second set were found on a different ranch near Falfurrias.

“It is hard to determine how long these people lay in the fields after they died,” Brooks County Sheriff Benny Martinez told Breitbart Texas. “Between the harsh climate, animals, and insects, a body decomposes to skeletal remains very quickly down here. The medical examiner should be able to help with establishing a better time of death.”

“These smugglers have no regard for human life,” the sheriff continued. “When a person gets sick, injured, dehydrated, or otherwise can’t keep up with the pack, the smugglers simply leave them behind to die.”

The discovery of more skeletal remains continued the following day when federal agents and Kenedy County Sheriff’s Office deputies received a call from a rancher near Sarita, Texas. Sarita is the location of one of two Border Patrol Checkpoints located about 80 miles north of the Rio Grande Valley border with Mexico. The deputies and agents responded to the call from a rancher about the discovery of a deceased migrant. After a local justice of the peace declared the migrant to be dead, agents recovered the remains and transported them to a university for identification confirmation. Agents discovered a Honduran identification document near the deceased migrant’s remains.



Border Patrol officials caution that attempting to avoid the immigration checkpoints in South Texas is very dangerous.

In January, Sheriff Martinez told Breitbart Texas that the bodies and remains of nine illegal immigrants were recovered in just one month. The sheriff attributed the 30 percent increase over the previous January to an unusually strong cold snap.

“The cold snaps in January were devastating,” Brooks County Sheriff Benny Martinez told Breitbart Texas in January. “Despite our best efforts to try and prevent the loss of lives, we ended up finding the bodies of nine people. Last year — we lost seven during the same period.”

Officer 'never' entered Florida school during shooting, resigns

Feb. 22 (UPI) -- The school resource officer at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School resigned Thursday after video showed he didn't enter the school during the shooting, Broward Sheriff Scott Israel said.

Speaking at a news conference Thursday Israel said video showed Deputy Scot Peterson was on campus, armed and in uniform during the Feb. 14 shooting which left 17 students and faculty members dead. He "never went in" the building.

"A deputy arrived at the west side Building 12, held a position and he never went in," Israel said.

Peterson was inside another building at the school handling a matter with a female student when the shooting began. Heremained outside the building where the shooting took place for "upwards of 4 minutes," Israel said. The shooting lasted about 6 minutes.

Israel said Peterson should have entered the building, confronted the 19-year-old shooter Nikolas Cruz and killed him.

Peterson was suspended without pay following a review of his actions during the shooting, but Israel said the deputy chose to resign Thursday.

"I'm devastated, sick to my stomach, there are no words," Israel said. "These families lost their children, we lost coaches. I've been to the funerals. I've been to the homes where they're sitting shiva. I've been to the vigils. It's just, there are no words."

Two other Broward Sheriff's Office resource officers were placed on restricted assignment due to an investigation into how they handled calls regarding Cruz and his family members, but their names weren't released.

Head of the internal investigations unit, Col. Jack Dale, said the agency responded to 23 phone calls regarding Cruz and his brother Zachary dating back to 2008.

"It's unclear as to whether a policy violation occurred or not, so we feel at this point that they deserve extra scrutiny and to be reviewed and investigated," Dale said.
