At the time, Dody lived in Tucson, about two hours west of the Chiricahuas, while Paul lived at the monument, in a spartan cobblestone cabin where he might stay for a couple of weeks at a stretch. That weekend he had a houseguest visiting, a seasonal employee who asked not to be named in this story I’ll call her Bonnie and when he didn’t return after dark, she grew concerned. Earlier that day, Paul had driven Bonnie up to the Massai Point Trailhead so she could hike downhill to the visitor center. At about 8 P.M., she notified Ted Scott, the monument’s superintendent, who rounded up two colleagues and set out with a flashlight, trudging through the surrounding canyons, calling Paul’s name the whole way.

On President Biden s first day in office, he signed an executive order that terminated the construction of the border wall.
Construction at the southwest border in Cochise County stopped, but the migrants kept coming. Now, both migrants and cartels are using the roads left behind from construction. What we have now is walking paths for the carter for their smuggling efforts, Dannels said. We just built infrastructure for the cartels.
