Justin Cavazos, 25, and Jordan Alexsandra Madrigal, 21, were recently served with arrest warrants charging them with aggravated robbery, a first degree felony. The case dates back to Feb. 2, when officers responded to a robbery reported at about 3:16 a.m. at the Stripes on 2701 San Bernardo Ave. A man stated that he had sent a message to Madrigal through Facebook Messenger in an attempt to meet with her. He arrived at the Super 8 by Wyndham on 4910 San Bernardo Ave. He then saw Madrigal by the front lobby. She approached him and entered his vehicle. Madrigal told the male to drive around the motel. Both exited the vehicle and began walking toward the front of the motel. Madrigal then asked the male how much money he had, authorities said. He told her he only had $60. As he took out the money, Madrigal snatched it from his hand, according to an arrest affidavit. Madrigal then tried running away. He managed to grab her sweater and bring her to the ground. That’s when the complainant heard the voice of a male telling him to stop. When the complainant turned around, he observed a male pointing a small gray and black gun at him. Asked if he had more money, the complainant pulled out his wallet and said no, states the affidavit. Madrigal asked the complainant for his black iPhone 14. She then threw it to the floor and damaged it after the male refused to give her the password, according to court documents. The armed man then started assaulting the complainant with the gun, police said. After the assault, the complainant picked up his phone and drove to the Stripes on San Bernardo, where he asked the cashier to call the police. He stated he had known Madrigal for a few years and that he communicates with her via Facebook Messenger. He added that this was the first time he had seen the male who had assaulted him. The complainant had visible injuries, which consisted of cuts to his right hand fingers, a cut beneath his left nostril, minor cuts on the left shoulder and minor cuts to the back of his head. On Feb. 6, police responded to the Walmart on 4401 South U.S. 83., where loss prevention personnel had detained Madrigal for theft. She was then taken to LPD headquarters. Asked about the alleged robbery, Madrigal stated she had messaged the complainant asking him if he wanted to buy videos or photos of herself. He did not want to buy them, and both agreed to meet at the Super 8 on San Bernardo. Madrigal stated that a man she identified as Cavazos had told her earlier to steal the money from the complainant. When she tried to run away with the money, that’s when she yelled out to Cavazos for help, according to the affidavit.

At the Primeiro de Maio Stadium, Palmeiras defeated São Bernardo 3-0 in what should have been their best collective performance of the year As it was a single game, Verdão remains firm and strong in the fight for the unprecedented state tetrachampionship The match marked the debut of defender Micael The alviverde jewel scored two beautiful goals still in the first half to give Palmeiras tranquility in their quest for a spot Although the first scoring chance was São Bernardo's, when lateral Hugo Sanches (2') unleashed a bomb for Weverton's defense, Verdão opened the scoring in a masterful way. After Weverton's long pass, Flaco López gave a header, and Estêvão (15') unleashed a left-footed rocket from outside the area, into the corner. The ball hit the post before dying in the back of the net. At the end of the first half, Estêvão (46') received the ball well open on the right wing, pulled it to the center, and kicked it from the edge of the area to increase the score. After the interval, after being stopped by goalkeeper Alex Alves, Flaco López scored the third goal. Richard Ríos - the new alviverde number 8 - crossed perfectly from the right, São Bernardo's goalkeeper failed miserably in trying to cut the cross, and Flaco López (57') didn't even need to get off the ground to head the ball into the empty goal. Estêvão's hat-trick (64') almost came after dribbling Alex Alves, but the goal was disallowed due to the young star's offside position.

This was the question Akio Toyoda posed to the Toyota Latin America Chief Executive Officer who had come to discuss the plant's closure the plant produced over 100,000 Bandeirantes* by 2001 it had been manufacturing parts for models like the Corolla and Hilux Its production has been consolidated into three other plants in Sao Paulo to enhance competitiveness Chief Executive Officer of Latin America & Caribbean Region expressed his determination: “While the history of production at the Sao Bernardo Plant may be coming to a close it allows us to take flight into the future Together with the employees and their families who have relocated (due to the production transfer) Toyota will produce ever-better cars and expand exports to Latin America We are committed to contributing to the further development of Brazil’s automotive industry.” The decision to close Toyota’s most historic overseas plant was significant Inoue nervously approached then-President Akio Toyoda for consultation and was asked “Have you ever considered why we are manufacturing in South America?” And what significance did this plant hold for Toyota We delve into these questions through the testimonies of the people involved The Sao Bernardo Plant began operation in 1962 when Toyota only had two plants in Japan—its headquarters and the Motomachi Plant (opened in 1938 and 1959 Toyota’s production volume was 230,000 vehicles Compared to the group’s global production of 10.61 million units in 2022 this represented a modest beginning at merely 2% of that scale Toyota considered expanding its operations overseas with its vast territory and the largest population in the region the existence of the world's largest Japanese immigrant community is also cited as one of the reasons for the choice The turning point came in 1956 when the Brazilian government passed an act to promote a domestic automotive industry that effectively banned the import of finished vehicles This prompted European and American manufacturers to consider expanding their operations locally Toyota established Toyota do Brazil in 1958 Toyota’s first overseas production vehicle This vehicle contained approximately 60% Brazilian-made parts but the government’s domestic production demands increased yearly The Sao Bernardo Plant was established as a full-fledged vehicle plant to comply The engines were locally sourced from other companies Toyota achieved 100% domestic production of previously imported drive components Brazil had a high demand for robust vehicles originally developed for the National Police Reserve (now the Self-Defense Forces) in Japan renowned for its ability to effortlessly conquer challenging terrain like mud significantly reinforced Toyota’s brand image as being synonymous with “reliability” and “durability.” The Sao Bernardo Plant is distinguished by its numerous stories from Toyota’s founding period its press machine will come home to Japan after 60 years of service predating the establishment of Toyota Motor Corporation by the Toyoda Automatic Loom Works Automobile Department based in Kariya When the Koromo Plant (later the Honsha Plant) was established in 1938 this press machine was also relocated there supporting the nascent Toyota in car manufacturing aligning with the inauguration of the Sao Bernardo Plant the press machine was relocated to the other side of the globe It has been in active use for an impressive 89 years “It’s unbelievable that a Japanese company made and purchased such a large item before the war I speculate that it was largely funded by the money earned from selling Toyoda Automatic Loom Works patents to a British company which also funded the establishment of Toyota Motor Corporation After consultation with Chairman Akio Toyoda the company decided to preserve this historically valuable press machine through “functional conservation” (maintained in a production-capable state) The machine will be reinstalled in the same location within the Honsha Plant where it stood 60 years ago continuing its role in producing spare parts it is slated to be used in training workers in die maintenance and other related tasks A tourist spot in ABC Paulista is the perfect day trip option for those who want to have fun and connect with nature The tourist attraction surprises with its affordable entrance fee seniors over 65 and residents of the city are free it’s the perfect destination for large families Founded in 1955, today the site is the first Conservation Unit in São Bernardo do Campo and offers more than 7 leisure options for visitors.

countries The implementation of the Brazilian aerostructures factory took place in May 2018 with the inauguration of the facilities in São Bernardo do Campo.The factory spans across an area of 5,000 m² and utilizes digital technology to optimize manufacturing processes and to eliminate paper documentation The facility is part of Saab's global supply chain for Gripen E with the production of tail cones and aerodynamic brakes starting in June 2020 The factory reached a new milestone in November 2021 with the start of wing assembly for the Gripen E Saab completed production of the first front fuselage for the fighter in November 2022 Establishing Gripen fighter production in Brazil is part of Saab's commitment to supporting the program's continuity and supporting the development of the local defense industry Saab serves the global market of governments authorities and corporations with products services and solutions ranging from military defence to civil security Union officials of the Brazilian Metalworkers Union of ABC (SMABC) returned last week from a trip to Germany which was especially aimed at preparing a new trap for the workers at the Mercedes-Benz (Daimler) truck plant in São Bernardo do Campo they expect the implementation of massive layoffs announced by the company in early September which includes 3,600 job cuts and the outsourcing of several sectors of the factory After two months of making every effort to prevent workers from mounting a struggle against these attacks the unions bureaucrats announced a trip to Germany in late October Their aim was not to meet and organize a joint struggle with the Mercedes-Benz workers in Germany who are also facing job cuts and who staged a one-day strike last week against the closure of a plant in the south of Berlin they went for closed-door meetings with the big bosses at the company’s headquarters As SMABC’s Executive Director Aroaldo da Silva admitted at an assembly at the factory gate after the trip “We only have [to offer] what the company told us that they don’t want any contract worker to remain in the plant … We don’t really have anything (to offer) right now.” the bureaucrats asked the workers to submit to the “best voluntary resignation plan [PDV in the Portuguese acronym] in the plant’s history” that would supposedly “lessen the impact of outsourcing.” SMABCP President Moises Selérges declared that the union’s only course of action will be to demand a PDV organized with the union’s approval “Mercedes used to carry out their PDVs without negotiation a PDV like this will have to be the result of negotiation and approval in an assembly.” Da Silva defended the massive cuts while identifying the interests of the workers with those of the business owners because if the plant closes [the victims] will be the areas that the company wants to close the workers and the bosses inside the plant as well.” Mercedes-Benz announced “robust profits” in the third quarter of this year increasing its gross revenue by 83 percent over the same quarter last year an increase from €2.8 billion to €5.2 billion Large margins of these figures go directly into the pockets of shareholders and “the bosses inside the plant.” Instead of “lessening the impact” of outsourcing the voluntary resignation plan would immediately put permanent workers under the threat of being fired if they do not leave the company in the near future It would also mean a general worsening of conditions for workers who remain replacing as many permanent contracts as possible with outsourced and temporary underpaid contracts General Motors laid off thousands of employees at its plant in São Caetano do Sul The São Caetano Metalworkers Union declared at the time that the cuts were necessary to prevent the company from leaving the region and to guarantee new investments after remaining on the production line without interruption during the worst outbreaks of the pandemic GM workers faced a new contract with more cuts in wages and benefits and ending stability for victims of work-related accidents despite a 13-day strike and enormous opposition from the workers because the union acted at every step to isolate the movement as the Labor Court prepared to declare it illegal That is the same course being taken today by the SMABC in the Mercedes-Benz São Bernardo plant Two months after having hypocritically declared that they would “not accept workers being laid off,” the union officials have clearly been exposed as working hand in hand with the company to allow these attacks the union remained silent throughout September as the termination date for contract workers approached Mercedes began the dismissal of hundreds of contract workers a week before their contracts expired Mercedes-Benz announced a new deal to outsource logistics as the bureaucrats brought the terminated contract workers to the SMABC headquarters to tell them that nothing could be done about their layoffs the logistics workers at the Mercedes-Benz plant began a strike against their outsourcing Union officer Aroaldo da Silva was responsible for defusing this spontaneous work stoppage which threatened to explode into a wider revolt Da Silva declared in relation to the outsourcing that “We have to do all the probing possible to try to diminish the impact on the sector.” He declared the union would not accept a work stoppage of all logistics workers “so as not to stop production.” the union officials are seeking to conceal their own responsibility while buying time for the company to cut labor costs in order to make the plant attractive for investments Their trip to Germany took place in the midst of an escalating global economic crisis and the drive of the imperialist governments to world war which is provoking skyrocketing energy prices in Europe As Mercedes-Benz pointed out in its quarterly earnings statement the company is worried about“energy supply uncertainties in Europe and the ongoing COVID challenges in Asia” and is preparing itself “to safeguard supply chains and to maximize the potential for reducing or substituting the use of natural gas in vehicle production.” the SMABC appeals to the German capitalists heading Mercedes-Benz promising stability for their profitable operations in Brazil by suppressing workers’ struggles for better living conditions This corporatist procapitalist orientation has been clearly outlined in the “Industry 10+ Plan” by IndustriALL Brazil of which the SMABC is one of the main members The unions have presented that program as a basis for the labor policies of the incoming Workers Party (PT) government of President-elect Luís Inácio Lula da Silva As opposed to the “strategy” posed by the bureaucrats to secure the company’s profit interests the spontaneous work stoppage at the logistic sector of the São Bernardo plant showed that the workers are not willing to accept the massive layoffs and outsourcing A contract worker who had been laid off in early October contacted the World Socialist Web Site anonymously to denounce the company and the union’s bankrupt maneuvers He said:“Daimler’s biggest plant [outside Germany] is here It’s sad because we are treated as less than numbers who give their blood for the company to achieve its goals … The company is only reaping its rewards because of us he stated: “I’m not hopeful because they are going there to talk to the businessmen so whatever will benefit the businessmen they will do They are concerned that Lula wins the election.” The worker spoke to the WSWS just days before the presidential run-off on October 30 which resulted in the PT candidate’s victory The worker pointed to the efforts of union bureaucrats who had absurdly declared that Lula’s coming to power would reverse the cuts and layoffs They act only for some candidate and forget the main thing In opposition to the SMABC policy of cutting living conditions and jobs to compete for investments against plants in other countries workers at the São Bernardo plant must organize an independent rank-and-file committee to lead their own struggle and reach out to workers in the plants in Germany and all over the world The International Workers’ Alliance of Rank-and-File Committees (IWA-RFC) will provide the necessary structure for that internationally unified struggle to develop Yet they are
