From memory - I don’t think there was a cover-up, I think the proper paper work was not submitted after the incident despite supervisors on scene. If this is true then the supervisor was at fault for not following procedure, at worst the agents should be reprimanded for the same. The whole issue is that the federal gov’t backed the drug dealer to testify against the agents when he was committing a crime.
The whole thing smells.
You're right; Sutton is another rogue prosecutor, along with Ronnie Earle, Mike Nifong, and Patrick Kennedy who seek national exposure via predatory misconduct. They apparently misjudged the type of exposure they wanted, unless what they're after is the liberal democRat vote in future political campaigns. Dimlibs love his kind of brass.
This guy should be fired.
Compean picked up his shell casings and disposed of them (destroying evidence). He then asked another agent to retrieve the ones he didn’t get (the ons in view of the other officers), who then disposed of those for him. All supervisors arrived after the shooting. An agent mentioned he heard shots but when asked by the supervisors what happened, both Ramos and Compean failed to mention any discharge of their weapons.
“If this is true then the supervisor was at fault for not following procedure, at worst the agents should be reprimanded for the same.”
It’s not, but the supervisors of that station should be fired for incompetence.
“The whole issue is that the federal gov’t backed the drug dealer to testify against the agents when he was committing a crime.”
At the time all the agents new about the perp is that he tried to flee. The drugs weren’t discovered in the van until after the shooting. The federal government didn’t back the drug bdealer, they backed the rule of law.
On the other hand, if you think it is okay that any and every law enforcement officer (Ruby Ridge? Waco?) should have the authority of judge, jury and hangman, your comment would make sense.
Keep in mind Hillary might have the entire FBI, DEA, BATF, Border Patrol and Justice Dept. at her fingertips soon. You think things are bad now, wait till that witch gets her hands on some hired guns.
