Search Warrants Issued in Puerto Rican Texting Scandal VOANews A judge in Puerto Rico has issued search warrants for the phones of the U.S. territory's governor, Ricardo Rossello, and 11 of his political allies in connection with a texting scandal. The search warrants were issued for individuals who had not yet given up their phones as part of an investigation, a spokesperson for Puerto Rico's Department of Justice told the Associated Press. The warrants were issued a day after protestors mobilized for a 10th straight day against embattled Governor Ricardo Rossello. Demonstrations ended late Monday with police using tear gas to disperse demonstrators who had gathered near the governor's mansion in the capital, San Juan.
