Best guess is probably two sleazey characters who figured they could get the reward money by calling in some bogus tip.

And for that they would only get deported?

It's possible, the way things are going, but I sure hope they'd face charges.

Aren't they charging the person who gave false info last week?

I'd rather just get rid of them, prosecution (plus their defense) is too costly, and in the end we'd have to pay for their incarceration.

Just send them back to their native hell hole, kick them in the ass as they get off the plane, and be done with it.

My guess is that they were not associated with the case at all.

I heard earlier that a mom took her kids to school, not knowing they were closed ... saw this van in the parking lot which drove away. She got spooked, called 911 and they caught up ith the van at a pay phone. Don't know if all of that is true, but I have the impression that the investigation jumped too quick on this and netted some guys not involved.

If these two hapless illegals are already registered to vote, do they get to take absentee ballots with them?

Good point. CBS reported that they happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. So perhaps someone in that area made a bogus call to the tip line, the cops staked out all the pay phones, and these two bozos got caught in the net, one driving a white van. It could also have been a setup by the real sniper, using two dupes, one with a white van.

Either way, not exactly a feather in LE's cap....

Under normal circumstances I would agree with you- send their butts to jail to punish them. But I think sending them back the third world sh*thole they come from is a much beter punishment. It saves the taxpayer money to boot instead of giving them more welfare.

Just stick their names, faces etc. in whatever databases it is that makes coming back here a very very bad idea.
