I want to thank Lubbock County Criminal District Attorney Matt Powell and his staff and the Lubbock Police Department for the hard work and effort they put in to convict Minnie Elkins' killer, Reynaldo Rey.
Rey's conviction helps to close a wound that has festered for many years in my family. I also want to thank Matt Powell and his staff for the way my wife, Mrs. Elkins granddaughter, and the rest of the family were treated. We were always treated with consideration and kept informed as the case developed.
