Friends of the Border Patrol in response to public outcry and support of U.S. Border Patrol Agents Ignacio "Nacho" Ramos, Jose A. Compean, and their families is launching our "Pardon The Agents" campaign and asks that President George W. Bush pardon the agents. We will be submitting a letter to the White House later this week... Read the press release HERE...
Border Patrol agents abandoned by command; smuggler never charged
Dear Friends,
I am writing to ask for your help and support for two brave U.S. Border Patrol agents who were abandoned by their command and hung out to dry. I also ask that you read my cover note, and the subsequent article by Sara Carter who was granted this interview by the agents you are about to meet and forward this to everyone you know.
Over the past year, since contacted by a California based family member of Border Patrol Agent Ignacio "Nacho" Ramos I have personally investigated an incident that led to criminal charges and convictions of two Border Patrol agents in El Paso, Texas. I contend as do a number of Texas Border Sheriffs that they are innocent
BUMP! I'm still reading all of this information, Ladycalif. Thank you so much for posting this!
I'm going to do it right now.
Thanks for your help. What on earth is Homeland Security thinking???
THESE FINE MEN WERE DOING TOO GOOD OF A JOB. SOMEBODY DIDNT LIKE IT AND PASSED THE WORD, TAKE EM DOWN. DISGRACEFUL.
I took an article about this injustice to the local office of my Congressman yesterday, and asked the aid to read it, after he had read it I asked if he would see if he could get me more information on this case. As it turns out the Aid's uncle is a BP agent. The aid said he would speak to the Congressman about opening a congressional investigation into the matter.
Encapsulation:
Homeland Security investigator Christopher Sanchez received a telephone call from Border Patrol agent Rene Sanchez about Aldrete-Davila's encounter with Ramos and Compean. Rene Sanchez stated "that Osbaldo Aldrete-Davila's mother, Marcadia Aldrete-Davila, contacted Rene Sanchez's mother-in-law, Gregoria Toquinto, and advised her about the BP agents shooting Aldrete-Davila. Toquinto told her son-in-law, Rene Sanchez, of the incident, and he spoke to smuggler Aldrete-Davila via a telephone call."
It's a fact that this BP agent is related to a drug dealer through marriage. If the last name similarity isn't just a coincidence, so is the Homeland Security investigator. This warrants a full-scale investigation, especially when a government employee stated repeatedly that chasing suspects is strictly forbidden. Who made that rule, when was it implemented, who approved it and what use is a Border Patrol ordered to let people who run get away?
The prosecutor is a traitor.
I'll make sure my Representative hears about this personally, and I'll ask her to write a letter too.
It's pure insanity that these two have been prosecuted, yet the armed drug runners/invaders haven't even been charged!!
And the Border Patrol guy who turned them in is related by marriage to the smuggler..
This stinks!
I have Fox news channel on right now and the O'Reilly show (which is being aired again....we're in Alaska). O'Reilly is covering this story today.
Lou Dobbs will be doing a story about the two border agents tomorrow.. Thursday.... with details.
This is old news.
The BP agents failed to disclose discharging their firearms, much less informing that they might have shot someone.
Then they tried to cover it up..
And then impede an investigation?
These guys can rot in jail..
Will you keep the folks at the Calendar informed, they have an e-mail or request post here link. They have the agents court date up on the Calendar already- I have already sent them the fax and # you have provided here. GREAT WORK Ladycalif !

What bothers me much more than these agents possibly covering up their shooting of the smuggler is that the DOJ went out of their way to find this guy in Mexico who had entered the U.S. illegally with 800 lbs of pot and who had assaulted a BP agent, and then gave him full immunity in order to prosecute the agents. Something is wrong there.
And now the smuggler is suing us for $5 million.
BP Agents Injustice Ping!
