EL PASO, Texas Two former Border Patrol agents convicted of shooting a drug smuggler and trying to cover it up have been denied a request for a new hearing.
The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans denied the request by Ignacio Ramos and Jose Alonso Compean on Wednesday. The same court upheld the men's convictions in July.
No reason was given for the Wednesday's denial.
Ramos and Compean are each serving sentences of more than 10 years for shooting Osvaldo Aldrete Davila in the buttocks while he was fleeing from an abandoned marijuana load in 2005.
Aldrete was sentenced to 9 1/2 years in prison for his role in two seperate smuggling efforts later that same year.

You really put yourself out there, Bob.
And without Secret Service! Have you ever been assaulted?
Costumes often invite cruel behavior. I’ve seen threads here testifying to obnoxious treatment, and not only by bratty children, but by rabid adults as well.
Didn’t take long...

Yadda, yadda, likely story. Fact remains, Kanof and Gonzalez brought up baton and pepper spray. The use of the shotgun was appropriate and according to the decision on the use of a gun even that use of a shotgun would have resulted in the 10 year penalty. And there were more witnesses to that than there were to the shooting by Compean. Nope, the use of the shotgun was appropriate.
Now, if I respond to that comment, will I be accused of bringing the subject up again?.
No he is the guy that bitch slapped you about your "Prove it. of STFU" statement.
And I didn't bring the actual subject up. You did. I merely brought up the "long" post and the fact that you had accused him of something which the post addressed.
But again do your own work. That is the answer you will get from now on.
Do your own damn work.
The unpredicatble nature of gun fights often makes lethal shots unlikely or impossible. In such cases, shots that an Agent reasonably knows are going to wound the perpetrator are authorized. That is one of the reasons why Agents are told to shoot to stop the threat rather than shoot to kill.
LOL—You fail to understand that I did the work (it took about five minutes) some hours ago. I was just trying to see if I could get you to admit the truth (you couldn’t).
I already said what I meant. Silly, childish. Would lame be better or would you accuse me of hate speech against disabled people? The speech police want to limit all use of the word to mean homosexual even though it has many meanings.
“It’s so gay” is a common term. As I said, you really need to get out more. Read more FR threads, or just google it.

Am I taking this wrong or is 1rudeboy deliberately attempting to avoid pinging me?
Do your own damn work.
He is just performing his asshole routine. You can forgive him. He must have taken a brick to his head early in life.
Or perhaps he is just trying to reinforce the choice of his screenname. ;-)
Sorry rudeboy--In an attempt to introduce a bit of humor, I just couldn't resist that one.
You don’t get it. I can’t bring up the subject that Andrew just brought up because it will prove, oh heck, I don’t know what it will prove because I don’t speak moron.
That's ok, as soon as the profanity starts flying it fits.
So that explains why you have so much trouble with English. You are at the imbecile level. Study and you can progress up. But the only posts here on the moronic level are yours. So it will take a while until you get everybody else's.
You mentioned the subject. I mentioned a post.
What exactly does "STFU" stand for?
You are certainly obsessed by the topic you know is a red herring. You accuse others of refusing to drop it when you are the one that continuously brings up your idee fixe.So I can't talk about it anymore. If I do you'll "remember" to attack me for it again. But wait, you just attacked me for it when I didn't bring it up . . . so if I bring it up again will you attack me for not dropping it?
You can talk about whatever you want. You just can't then blame other people for bringing up the subject. By your estimation, if I mention FreeRepublic, I bring up every subject discussed on it. I mentioned a post. You mentioned a subject.
NEWS ALERT .... it flew in the first couple hundred posts. ;-)
