Obviously, you chose to ignore Ramos'account: "At some point during the time where I'm crossing the canal, I hear shots being fired," Ramos said. "Later, I see Compean on the ground, but I keep running after the smuggler."

That's what Lon Horiuchi said happened at Ruby Ridge and Waco. You believe him?

Compean had already picked up his shell casings. Ramos did not, though he failed to report the shooting.

Destruction of evidence. That is a felony.

You can't prove the smuggler didn't have a gun.

That's not the standard of evidence. It's been proven that (a) these guys made statements at variance with the physical evidence, (b) willfully concealed their actions, and (c) destroyed evidence. All that indicates consciousness of guilt.

One guy did, one guy didn't. Charging both for "destroying evidence" can easily be considered as over reaching.

You sound like a broken record. Do you have a transcript of their trial? Indicating consciousness of guilt isn't the same thing as being guilty and this looks like a railroad prosecution to many.
