Biography
Patricia Roybal Caballero is a member of Piro-Manso-Tiwa ancestry and belongs to the Guadalupe Pueblo in New Mexico. She is one of two Native American women elected to the state legislature in 2012.
Her husband owes over $90,000 in child support, lives a very public life and not worried that he'll ever have to pay a nickel because he's above the law - a disbarred attorney who still 2nd chairs with his lawyer buddies and is paid under the table and hasn't paid taxes in over 30 years. He has been convicted of Criminal non-support in 1990 and has dozens of warrants out for his arrest that can't be served because no one knows where he and his state representative wife live. They listed an address that's an abandoned trailer home when she filed to run for office and no one cared.
