The only explanation is they knew Compean was firing at an unarmed target that was far away and almost back to Mexico. There is no other explanation for their behavior. WHEW!!!! And where do you get THAT?!? Your logic skills are lacking, or you have read too much Sutton fiction.

Trial transcripts show Compean had mentioned to, I think, 2 other agents that he thought Ramos had shot Davilo. I've read the transcripts and at the time Ramos pulled the trigger, Davilo was almost at the edge of the Rio Grande.
The only reason Compean could have thought Ramos dropped Davilo is because he saw Davilo fall to the ground right after Ramos shot and then see him limp back into Mexico.
Agreed, this is an opinion based on trial evidence. I ask you, if we take the testimony of the other agents that Compean said "I think Ramos shot him" at face value, why do you think Compean believed Ramos' bullet hit Davilo? What did he see that made him believe this?
Understood we are in conjecture mode.
