He as running at an angle to the levee, but not from Compean. Take a point on a paper. Put your pencil tip on that point. Draw a straight line in any direction away from that point. What angle does that line make with the point? Now place another point close to the original point. What is the angle to that second point? Consider that Ramos was within 10 feet of Compean and Davila was about 150 feet away. My Casio says that is around 3 degrees in the worst case.(the path from Davila to Compean with respect to the path from Davila to Ramos)
LOL! I love it when people refuse to use logic and their brain.
