Feds join probe of Mexican slain in Pa. coal town
"The Justice Department said Wednesday it has opened an investigation into the fatal beating of a Mexican immigrant in a small northeastern Pennsylvania town.
The federal involvement comes less than a week after local officials in Schuylkill County charged three white teens in this month's attack in Shenandoah on Luis Ramirez, a 25-year-old father of two."
