"It makes no mention of why at least two jurors feel they gave the wrong verdict. It doesn't deal with the life long friendship of Border Patrol Agent Rene Sanchez and the drug smuggler Aldrete-Davila. It says nothing of the conflicting testimony between Sanchez and Aldrete. It gives no reason for the suppression of evidence by the Judge. It deals not with the issue that Prosecuting Attorney Debra Kanof threatened to indict other agents if they didn't change their statements. If Ramos and Campeanos felt they were guilty why didn't they accept a one year plea bargain offered by Prosecuting Attorney Debra Kanof?"
If they were guilty of an offense warranting a decade in prison why offer such a deal? Why was Border Patrol Agent Blanchette not allowed to testify for the defense? When Agent Blanchette expressed concern over Agent Sanchez's reliabiltiy why was he asked to give up his weapon? Why did the government ignore Rene Sanchez's illegal investigation into this case? Then there's the issue of Aldrete's close friendship with Chris Sanchez, the only investigator in this case. This is just of the tip of the iceberg.
Guilty or not these agents apparently went through a trial fraught with government corruption. Just as falsifying reports and picking up brass casts doubts upon the agents credibility so does malfeasance cast doubt upon the government's case. Considering your fervent support for illegal aliens this of course, means nothing to you."
Drug runner's mommy called her friend who was married to a high ranker on our side and got the ball rolling on these agents. They made many mistakes (but I note that Ramos made one shot of the fifteen and it was a hit...Campeon needs retraining if he ever gets back).
How did the drug-runner get operated on by a U.S. military physician after last seen fleeing back to Mexico? These connections need to be sorted out from the sordid in a retrial.
Well, apparently some of us aren't too conservative. It seems there are a few that want to give criminals a free pass. They want to give a slap on the wrist to Border Patrol Agents proven to be corrupt in a fair trial and yet give a max sentence to Agents convicted in a case with reasonable doubt. What are we to conclude from this?
