What is the status of the appeal?

Waiting... and waiting. It's all in the hands of the justices.

Sorry, but I think a pardon is the least acceptable legal alternative; a last resort in order to gain them their freedom. This case must be thrown out.

I agree.

It will also mean that any BP officer is exposed to federal whimsy and pressure from the Mexican government (whatever the hell that is).

I hope they address the misapplication of the 924(c) statute. If they don't clarify it's intended use (against drug-traffickers, not law enforcement), Congress should get busy revising the law to make sure judges and overzealous prosecutors don't try do this again.

The guy who picked them up never testified that Compean told him to not tell the supervisors. You made that up. Compean never told the Vasquez(the guy we are talking about) to pick them up.

Go find the shell casings for me, but don't disturb them? LOL!

You guys are funny.

[Toddsterpatriot]

Would those be the shell casings at the scene that was not investigated?

You mean the casings they disturbed? At the scene they didn't mention to their supervisors?

[Toddsterpatriot]

Also, he did not know at the time that Compean did, or was going to pick up the shell casings.

So Ramos said, "We shot at this guy over there"? Why not?

[Toddsterpatriot]

The demand is only that a supervisor be informed that a shooting took place within 1 hour. There is no demand for who report it, only that someone at the scene inform a supervisor.

So who reported their shooting?

[Toddsterpatriot]

Ramos, nor Compean were required to tell their supervisor anything about the shooting.

That's funny!

[Ajnin]

What’s even funnier is that you do not know anything about the case.

[Toddsterpatriot]

You’re right, they did nothing wrong. LOL!

Hey why don't you do yourself a favor and actually read the testimony. This is the same guy who testifies that he arrives at the scene hears gun shots then goes to the van to find a cell phone to peruse. But here is some fantastic reasoning by the liar.

From Vasquez testimony page 48.

Q. Until the investigation in this case began, did you tell
anyone that you knew that Agent Compean had expended 14 shell
casings on February 17, 2005?
A. No, ma'am
Q. Why not?
A. I was under the wrong impression that he was going to
report the incident. And that I was going to be called at the
time, or after.

Unbelievable!!! After telling Vasquez to "destroy" evidence to help a coverup and thus commit a felony, Compean was expected by Vasquez to report it?

If we are funny, you are downright rip-roaring, gut-busting, tear-causing hilarious!

[Toddsterpatriot]

OMG, Vasquez and Compean are both liars. Do you have a point somewhere?

[AndrewC]

OMG, Vasquez and Compean are both liars. Do you have a point somewhere?

Do you have a point? Plus, how in the heck do you know that both are liars. We certainly know that Vasquez is a liar now. Juarez is a liar. We know that Aldrete is a liar. Compean admitted shooting his pistol and picking up and disposing of some brass. He admits talking to Vasquez. He admits he slipped in the ditch while attempting to thwart a suspect who refused to halt and comply with the lawful instructions of a United States official while within the federally controlled border of Texas. Now it seems pretty obvious what point I was making. Compean was telling the truth about the contents of the discussion between he and Vasquez. Vasquez lied.

“That’s funny!”

It is true.

President Bush,

Pardon Ramos and Compean!
