 We have been keeping an eye on this developing story for you.

Another member of the west Texas Tango Blast has made an appearance in court.

This time it was Jo Anthony Diaz.

He is accused along with other members of the west Texas prison gang of trafficking cocaine, marijuana and meth.

You will remember federal authorities made several arrests here in Abilene back in December of 2008, saying the sting dissimulated the drug trafficking organization.

Diaz is facing life in prison and 8 million dollars in fines.

Other gang members have plead out of court since the sting in December including Ramiro Alivo and Ricardo Valdiez yesterday, and Eric Tonche of Abilene last week.
