Two congressmen are calling for the immediate release of imprisoned Border Patrol agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean and a complete investigation of their prosecutor after the arrest last night of the drug smuggler at the center of the case.
Reps. Ted Poe, R-Texas, and Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif., say that with the arrest of Osvaldo Aldrete-Davila, Congress and the attorney general should launch a full-scale review of U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton's prosecution of the border agents.
Sutton, said Rohrabacher in a statement, "is now confirming what members of Congress and the public already figured out about Osvaldo Davila. He's a rotten habitual drug smuggler who should have been the target of Sutton's prosecution, instead of Border Patrol agents Ramos and Compean."
As WND reported, Aldrete-Davila was arrested yesterday at the El Paso border crossing on charges he smuggled a second 750-pound load of marijuana into the U.S. after he was given immunity by U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton.

My heart listens only, to His call.
I'm pretty sure he thought he had a permanent get out of jail card that went so high up beyond Sutton-fong it could never be revoked.
Judging by that photo and the moving coverage of him I saw on TV, he's just figured out the game's up. He'll probably never understand the real reason: We the People elect pols to govern for US. We the People ARE the government. Our elected misrepresentatives think THEY are, but they're not!
We the People reminded them of that over the Shamnesty issue. Yes, they're still trying to slip it through bit by bit, but we're standing up to them on that too and it looks like they have at least understood that they CANNOT jam it down our throats. The harder they try, the more people turn against them.
This scummy little drug dealer will be thrown under the bus. There will be an effort to protect the higher ranking scumbag sutton-fong, but ultimately he will go under the bus as well. At least I hope so even if the purge of corrupt traitors will almost certainly remain incomplete.
To protect them because they're former law enforcement in prison. One of them was almost beaten to death when he was in the general population.
Doesn't amaze me at all.

God...last I checked gave man free will.
even to destroy themselves.
:)
by electing turncoat repubs and athiest dems.
I want to see Sutton in PRISON !.........nothing less !
Unbefreakinglievable.
Paging Lou Dobbs....
I missed that. Good! The WSJ seriously needs a reality check on this issue.
Hopefully, the judge in this case will find some reason to hold Sutton in contempt...and in jail...until Ramos & Campion are released.
Time for Congress to look at putting some accountability standards on US prosecutors.....
I got a call from the Thompson campaign the other night. I gave them an earful about doing something concerning the border and the fairtax, and that I was tired of Fred’s talking and saying nothing.
I brought up Hunter, told them there’s an example to follow.
and God, or was it the devil, gave us television so those that vote 98% democrat could tell us, who won each and every election. That box called a TV is definitely not to be trusted.
Ramos and Compean would be free Men in a NOT gone mad world.
Because they're in the company of the scumbags they helped to put there.
good article. Post it!
Agree.......Sutton is an insult to common sense and justice. Nothing less than that dipsh*t DC judge that lost his pants at the cleaners IMO.
Stay Safe !
Pretty much the same conclusion here.
