The Mexican drug runner whose testimony sent two Border Patrol agents to prison for shooting him in the buttocks brought drugs into the United States more than once, thereby diminishing his credibility as a witness in the investigation, according to a California congressman.
Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif., presented new evidence in a Capitol Hill press conference Wednesday that revealed what he says was U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton's deliberate attempt to mislead the public about Osbaldo Aldrete-Davila's involvement in the transport of a second load of drugs in October 2005.[snip]....
....[snip]But the Drug Enforcement Agency found that Aldrete-Davila brought in another vanload of drugs into the United States while he waited to testify against the agents. Some reports say he stashed up to 750 pounds of marijuana at a house in Clint, Texas.
Rohrabacher said Sutton knowingly presented a false picture of the primary witness in the case....."

Impeach Alberto Gonzales now. Frankly you'd be doing a favor. He could then move to Mexico City and not have to wait as long for his paychecks to arrive.
I find it quite ironic that so many conservatives lambaste Rudy Giuliani for his lack of "moral" fiber. What kind of President countenances this sort of grossly amoral behavior from his golden boys Alberto Gonzales and Johnny Sutton?
The kangaroo courts in the Soviet Union were technically "legal"
Better yet, let them post a reasonable appeal bond so that they're free during appeal. Then, when this travesty is eventually overturned, they can sue for back pay, reinstatement, and damages for the violation of their civil rights.
Ping!
I was taking the pics. Buford is holding my sign.

Sutton is a puppet with the strings going to the top in Washington. The drug dealers influence goes much higher than Sutton on both sides of the border.
Nothing about this case is surprising anymore. Don't hold your breath waiting for justice - this is a numbers game, and though the numbers to win are there now, it won't be the case in the near future. Little done so far has strayed from this political analysis - the train has left the station. This is one bloc a certain political apparatus does not plan to lose.
did everyone catch the "Mexican Border Town" in Los Angeles story?

Yes!
The Town the Law Forgot ("resembles a Mexican border town more than it does a Los Angeles suburb")
I miss all of the old Whitewater-era articles. There were tons of information there that could have been used to stop Hillary - but they've vanished now.
this whole thing is sooo Twilight Zone. Very sad.
You nailed it - this situation is straight out of the Twilight Zone.
Then we should punish him by incarcerating a few more border agents! /s
The DEA has a report that quotes a person caught with drugs that says Davila brought the drugs to his house, and the person's brother saying he told Davila to go to his brother's house.
They do not have an "official" claiming proof Davila actually took the drugs to the house. The two brothers identified Davila in pictures, but Davila was known at the time because of the BP agent case.
BOR is on it, Live now.
Ping. O'Reilly is talking about this now.
