SUMMARY: In the Yolanda Saldivar trial in Houston, following the prosecution’s conclusion, the defense quickly rested its case after calling five witnesses, mostly motel employees. Lead defense attorney Doug Tinker emphasized the strength of their position. One key witness, Ruben Deon, contradicted a prosecution claim about Selena’s final words. He admitted he was distracted during the incident and did not hear Selena. The prosecution maintained the solidity of their case, with General Manager Barbara Schulz challenging the credibility of another prosecution witness. The trial’s atmosphere suggested the defense anticipated a challenging outcome as it approached closing arguments.

On October 23, 1995, the trial of Yolanda Saldívar—the woman accused of murdering Selena Quintanilla– wrapped up Houston Texas, after being moved from Corpus Christi.

SUMMARY: For the first time this year, La Niña is now forecast to last throughout the entire winter, with NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center giving it a 54% chance for December-February. Previously, ENSO Neutral was favored for winter. La Niña occurs when sea surface temperatures in the eastern equatorial Pacific are 0.5ºC below average, typically pushing the Pacific Jet Stream north, causing drier, warmer conditions in the southern U.S. and wetter areas in the Pacific Northwest. Last winter, a weak La Niña brought a record warm December but cooler January-February, below-average rainfall, snow in Austin, and more freezes than normal. Another mild La Niña winter is expected for Central Texas.
