I reacted the same way, I've heard him now a couple of times on radio shows, and he is one weasely guy.
Whatever tendency I might have had to give the prosecutor benefit of the doubt flew out the window after listening to Sutton dance and spin.
He's making his bones going after Border Patrol. Its shameful. If they violated policy, if it was a bad shoot, they deserved a bad performance review or even to be terminated. They do not deserve jail time.
What gets me is we all expect the Border Patrol to- as their name would imply- protect the border; yet no one has their back. Not only do they have a very real fear of prosecution if they make the wrong move, they also have to deal with the real fear of the job. I saw on FOX news this morning that smugglers had rigged a wire along the border designed to catch BP on 4 wheelers at about neck height- which if it worked would likely decapitate them. Not only do they deal with tricks like that- they are at times outgunned and have to worry about politics if confronted by Mexican Military.
Lovely situation- supposedly we are hiring more BP officers; I can’t imagine who would want the job.
