David Pierce, Attorney at Law – El Paso & Las Cruces
In the El Mirador subdivision of Santa Teresa, New Mexico, tensions continue to escalate as David Pierce, an El Paso attorney, and his wife, Judith Pierce, consistently speak out against Homeowner X at every HOA meeting. With the willing assistance of Sema Gonzalez, the Dana Properties Association Manager, they **engage in defamatory and slanderous attacks** to discredit him within the community.
Through their connections with the El Mirador HOA Board, including President Richard Doyle, the Pierces have acquired confidential HOA documents related to Homeowner X and his family. These documents have been weaponized in their ongoing campaign against him—most notably, David Pierce used one of these confidential files as ‘evidence’ in a 100-page cease-and-desist letter.
Judith Pierce has allegedly made racist and demeaning remarks regarding Homeowner X's wife and children, further contributing to an increasingly hostile environment. Her husband, David Pierce, has also sought to amplify these attacks by making **repeated, unfounded accusations** against Homeowner X at every HOA meeting. Rather than serving the best interests of the community, Sema Gonzalez, as the Dana Properties Association Manager, has enabled this pattern of slander by allowing and even supporting their actions.
This behavior is particularly ironic considering David Pierce’s own past legal troubles. In May 2015, he was arrested for Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) in El Paso, Texas. Although his case was referred for prosecution, it was ultimately dismissed after numerous procedural delays over more than a year. His ability to escape consequences due to his position as an attorney contrasts sharply with the treatment Homeowner X has faced at the hands of the Pierces.
The ongoing harassment raises pressing concerns about **the ethical conduct of HOA leadership, the misuse of authority, and the role of management companies like Dana Properties in enabling personal vendettas within El Mirador**. Residents now face critical questions about the integrity and accountability of those entrusted to manage their community.

Both the federal government and the states of Texas, New Mexico, and Maryland have laws criminalizing conspiracy. In New Mexico, Section 30-28-2 NMSA 1978 governs conspiracy charges, while Maryland ties conspiracy statutes directly to the specific crime being attempted, as outlined in MD Code, Criminal Law § 1-202. On the federal level, conspiracy is prosecuted under 18 U.S.C. § 371.
Texas addresses conspiracy under Texas Penal Code § 15.02, though it remains unclear whether certain conversations might constitute a violation. In cases involving controlled substances, it is highly likely that a **small amount of drugs, easily obtainable in Juarez but illegal for import into the United States**, could enter through one of the border crossings in El Paso, Texas.
