Border agents who testified against convicted co-workers will be fired
Men who were at scene of shooting terminated for changing their stories
by Sara A. Carter

Two Border Patrol agents who testified against two co-workers convicted of shooting a drug smuggler will be fired for changing their stories about events surrounding the shooting, according to documents obtained by the Daily Bulletin.

Sources inside the Border Patrol also say Oscar Juarez, a third agent who testified against Border Patrol agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Alonso Compean, resigned from the agency last month shortly before he was to be fired.

All three agents gave sworn testimony against Ramos and Compean for the U.S. Attorney's Office, which successfully prosecuted the shooting case in March. The agents were given immunity in exchange for their testimony despite changing their accounts of the incident several

"When you give deals to witnesses like immunity, the government usually gets the testimony (it wants)," said Rep. Ted Poe, R-Texas, a former judge and prosecutor. "This case is a perfect example."

........including all monies exhausted by the two families, and the purchase of homes for both do to these loses to secure legal representation. Finally, a sum to be determined by a jury for the mental anguish suffered by each member of each family for this brutal mental and physical torture intentionally and wilfully inflected upon each of them by the government AND ITS AGENTS, SEPARATELY ( In other words each and every participant within the prosecution team - separately responsible. ).

Don't apply my perhaps over exhuberant comment to someone else.

"Someone", who perhaps is more knowledgeable about ALL aspects of politics than most on this forum.

I was only following proper decorum when referring to a 3rd person. I must confess I am not aware of devolve's supposed knowledge about 'ALL' aspects of politics.

You must admit, there are certain Freepers that have strong feelings about illegal aliens.

Cheers!

It seemed like a great idea at the time

But we have done so many and on about every topic that could ever be thought of

"Wild Bill" Clayton was a better man than Saul Alinski

I think I'll be shredding some of the liberal "sleepers" on FR on talk radio again

The one-two trick phonies

Yep. And you're one of them. And it's very strong LIBERAL feelings. Too bad the rest of us have to literally pay the price for those of you who think breaking the law doesn't matter and we should accommodate criminals.

I have strong feelings about illegals, they are ILLEGAL!

Nothing 'supposed' about what I wrote, follow the threads.

At this point I cannot imagine why ANYONE would consider working for the Border Patrol.

To cash in on the action, of course! But never, ever, threaten criminals transporting the stuff...

I don't have 'strong' feelings about immigration.

I have strong feelings about goobers such as yourself for not recognizing there's a valid reason why my government doesn't enforce the laws to get rid of all of them.

Being self-employed myself, I respect someone who shows initiative to pick up and leave their friends, and extended family to go into another country to seek their fortunes.

I do not include those that come here to commit felonies, or other murder and mayhem...but among 20 million people, it's a minute percentage.

I've been around here for going on 9 years. Gimme a break. ;^)

goobers

Keep up the name calling! It only reinforces your liberal loser mindset. All liberals are the same. You're no different.

Well, let's be honest.

If you can't recognize the economic benefits to the federal and state governments...if you can't recognize the overwhelming value of 20 million people replacing the 40 million souls snuffed out by Roe v Wade so we don't end up like much of Europe and England...if you can't recognize that these immigrants are going to keep social security solvent for the retiring baby boomers, then...

...you are the epitome of a Goober.

You and your ilk seem to get your panties in a bunch because a very large group of people seem to be getting away with something.

Chill. This is the United States of America. The best country on the planet. Where hard working people with goals and determination can be anything they wish to be.

Perhaps it's time to stop bitching and rejoice all the opportunities that are available to you.
