Harsher penalty sought following a brutal murder of a River Walk duck

This week On The Record, host Randy Beamer talks to San Antonio Park Police Officers Association President Henry Bassuk about the violent killing of a duck on the Riverwalk, and why the man accused of the crime won’t be charged. Then, author Art Martinez de Vara discusses his new book “Beneath Sacred Ground”, which puts faces to the names of the Indigenous people who first populated San Antonio and are buried at Alamo Plaza. Finally, on Reporter’s Roundtable, Michael Karlis with the SA Current, tells us more about some recent stories: one is rental assistance now available for resident of Opportunity Home communities and another is the social media content by Congressman Chip Roy calling for an “ethnic cleanse”.
