I did not say I support the decision...far from it!
You are leaping to conclusions...and that's a sad fact.
I don't know the cast of lawyer characters...I'm not from the area. But what I do know is that law enforcement officials should not be allowed to get away with illegal acts like shooting someone in the back...even if he is a narco trafficker. I am not convinced that the agents are guilty but I wasn't there and others who were are keeping silent...agency climbers perhaps?
