Thank you for the information. I agree that there has got to be an awful lot of corruption going on concerning the border. I'm hoping there is a trustworthy reporter, or investigator, checking on some of these people as we speak. The last thing I want is for an innocent person to spend time behind bars. Unfortunately, it doesn't look as if the agents were completely innocent. But still...that sentence seems to be at the far end of the spectrum of punishment, IMO.
CASEY WIAN, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): Border Patrol agent Ignacio Ramos shows us the Texas road where he first encountered a suspected Mexican drug smuggler last year.
IGNACIO RAMOS, BORDER PATROL AGENT: As soon as they passed me here, I just did a U-turn and followed them into town.
WIAN: Ramos and other agents followed his van which had earlier had tripped a hidden sensor near the border through the tiny town of Fabens, and then back toward the border.
RAMOS: To us, after many years of voting this area, when there's a vehicle away from a sensor and people running back south from that sensor, it usually means -- to us, that usually means that's a narcotics load.
Sorry about that.
