Authorities determined Thursday three volunteers involved in a civilian project to watch the border and report illegal crossers had an illegal immigrant pose for a flippant photograph but did not hold him against his will.
The Mexican man had told sheriff's deputies he was detained and forced to pose for a picture holding a T-shirt with a mocking slogan. A review of a 15-minute videotape provided by Bryan Barton, one of the three volunteers, showed the T-shirt the man was holding read: "Bryan Barton caught an illegal alien and all I got was this lousy T-shirt." Barton was wearing an identical shirt.
"The county attorney's office reviewed all available evidence, that indicates that there was no forcible detention, therefore the case is not substantiated, and no charges are pending," said Carol Capas, a spokeswoman for the Cochise County Sheriff's Department.

The prankster gave the illegal water, food and a $20 bill - and he got to keep the t-shirt! America, what a country!
I gotta admit...great story...laughed out loud( how cruel of me)
you just knew the media was going to find someone who screwed up
A more truthful t-shirt would have said "I'm with stupid"
And thats just the ACLU members attacking the minute men.
Those cries of these volunteers being the "first line of defense" and being necessary because the government isn't doing its job ring decidedly hollow.
if there is a bigger pencil-necked goober than colmes will someone please tell me who it is ?
Meanwhile, illegals continue to rape this country.
As hollow as our government?
"Those cries of these volunteers being the "first line of defense" and being necessary because the government isn't doing its job ring decidedly hollow."
Like how you conflate one guy with all. That's a logical fallacy called "fallacy of composition," mistaking the part for the whole.
Your post rings decidedly hollow.
"if there is a bigger pencil-necked goober than colmes will someone please tell me who it is ?"
Certain illegal alien apologists who infest this fine forum would qualify.
It would be pretty gratifying if an ACLU'er got in the way of a "coyote" or a drug smuggler....
Not entirely. After all, the government isn't doing its job.
Headline should have been: "Illegal Immigrant Fabricated Charges"
how about that ? let the sympathizers pick up the check
"alan colmes was SO indignant tonight" -
He trotted out his worn out "are you calling him a liar?" routine, and I was elated to hear Simcox say, "Yes". Colmes does this nearly every night and everyone else backs away delicately. It is certainly a very irritating agenda Colmes has and I guess we all watch hoping he'll get frustrated but he doesn't seem to. Can it really all go over his head? He'll watch the video Simcox promised Sean but he won't believe it hasn't been altered. Maybe he'll explode tomorrow night.
we can only hope
"my suggestion is for each "illegal alien apologist" to sponsor an illegal alien and pay for food, shelter, medical care and education for him and his family instead of the government(taxpayers) bearing this monstrous expense."
My neighbor suggested I should be more compassionate to the homeless in the form of tax $
I suggested that if he felt like he wasn't "giving" enough through his taxes that I'd be happy to print some flyers with his address and phone number, and hand them out to homeless people. That way they could come camp in his backyard, use his shower, eat food in his kitchen, and generally be more comfortable than they are. I told him how much they'd appreciate his direct compassion.
He wasn't too fond of that idea.
Dane, how about freepmailing me your street address? I'll buy a few illegals a greyhound bus ticket and send them your way. You can put 'em up at your place for a while. Deal?
