Has it occurred to Joe that they're taking the action to protect Ramos' life?
I think it's standard practice to hold new prisoners in solitary confinement. Suicide prevention and new prisoner protection is what I've been told.
Has he even gone through the inmate classification process yet?
Just once, I'd like to see a prosecutor offer a LEO a deal to testify against a perp who accused the LEO of something. How come the prosecutor didn't offer these BP agents a deal, to testify against the smuggler? World upside down.
I'm way too pissed to properly respond at this time.
I guess the official policy of the Clinton/Bush clan is to kill Christians for KLA drug runners and jail border patrol agents for Mexican drug runners.
Someone needs to be investigating U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton. Is he a Clinton appointee, one of those who took the place of all the US Attornies Clinton fired when he came into office? Who is pulling Sutton's strings? Has his family been threatened by the drug lords? Or is he on the take from them? This entire situation just doesn't smell right.
Most prisons put jailed peace officers and the like into segregated cells rather than in the general population to protect them from inmates.
The segregated cells are built for serious offenders and don't provide many amenities. I doubt there is a prison around that would have comfortable private facilities for segregated prisoners and certainly not for peace officers lest they be accused of coddling them with special privileges.
IT's a difficult situation, but the family wouldn't like the alternative either--daily exposure to prison gangs, many of them illegal aliens who would have a grudge against BP officers.

This whole thing stinks to high heaven. The fact that a drug smuggler was given immunity and his testimony was accepted as fact is plain wrong. Bush had better pardon these guys or his legacy is finished. If they are harmed, in jail, in any way, then Mr. Bush will have to answer for this mess. This open border policy is crazy and these actions against our own agents is criminal.
Disgusting enough to make the maggots gag.
"Imprisoned former Border Patrol agent Ignacio Ramos not only is being held in prison for trying to halt a fleeing drug smuggler"
Good old WND. Start the article off with a lie.
