Actuary "Ezekial 25:17 - The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequites of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he that shepherds the weak from the valley of darkness for he is truly his brother's keeper, and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers, and you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee."

CORPUS CHRISTI-Carroll High School Volleyball Coach Doris Elizondo told KRIS 6 News she is being forced out as coach, a move she said she plans to fight.
The fight has just begun, and a local civil rights group is rallying behind Elizondo. A member of the group, who also happens to be a member of the American Federation of Teachers, said Elizondo is being unfairly targeted.
Elizondo has been the head girls volleyball coach at Carroll High School for six years, winning District 5A titles each of the past five years.

AFT staff member Susie Luna Saldana told 6 News, on behalf of Elizondo, "She's been receiving threats that she is going to be moved. We feel very strongly that they have already made that decision to move her." She also claimed three or four parents at Carroll High School want the coach gone.
"We feel it's being done because of some very influential parents that want to see their kids play and not all children play fairly," added Saldana.
Saldana would not say where Elizondo would be moved to or who would take her spot.
In a phone interview, Elizondo told 6 News, "I haven't done anything wrong," adding, "I will fight this all the way."
However, everyone we spoke with at CCISD denied the accusations.
Carroll High School Athletic Coordinator Terry Morris said, "I can't comment on personnel issues. The rumors you are hearing, it's not accurate."
CCISD Superintendent Scott Elliff told 6 News that he was, "not aware that she's being transferred."
A District spokesperson said strongly, "She is not being reassigned, transferred or anything. It's false information."
When asked if Elizondo is being investigated for misconduct, the district spokesperson replied, "We cannot talk about personnel issues."
Saldana also would not say what accusations, if any, Elizondo is facing.
"We can tell you this. None of them has she been written up on and none of them have been brought to her attention prior to her wanting to be moved. These parents are wanting to move her," explained Saldana.
She said a news conference will be held in front of Carroll High School on Wednesday afternoon. Saldana claimed evidence backing their claims will be presented at that news conference, referring to an audio tape where Elizondo was told she was on her way out.
