But they had to give a drug runner amnesty to do it and that is too high a price.What is the price of allowing law enforcement personnel to freely disobey the law?

In this case it would be drug runners with bullets in their behinds. But seriously, the question really is do the ends justify the means. I think in this case the prosecutor acted in a very irresponsible way in giving a known drug dealer amnesty once, and then again after he had agreed to testify and was caught smuggling.
You lie down with the dogs and you get fleas. And Johnny Sutton has a severe case of the fleas. Do a search on Johnny Sutton and House of Death and you will see more of this prosecutors antics and dealings with murderous informants and the like, and ruining a DEA agents career who called him on it.
The worst part of this case is that it is politically motivated and these guys are just pawns of a larger game. That is why the sentence is so out of whack.
