This year's Annual Matamoros-Bagdad Cycling Tour in Mexico turned tragic when Juan, "Jesse" Campos, ran his 1989 Mercury Marquis head-on into the cluster of determined cyclists, killing one and seriously injuring 10 others. 30-year-old Brownsville, TX, resident Alejandro Alvarez, died on the scene, senselessly killed by a fellow Brownsville resident, Campos, when he fell asleep at the wheel after partying all night with liquor and cocaine. Campos claims to have no memory of the incident, saying he woke up after the catastrophe. He is being held in a Mexican jail until they can figure out what to do with him. This picture says it all! How often are we able to see such tragedy closeup in such detail? It is gruesome, but it is brutally honest, and makes the picture of the effects of drunk driving clear and human. We've all done it, some of us more than others, but if only to avoid having something like this on your conscience, DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE!
