The article doesn't mention what crimes these criminals committed. Whatever they did wrong, the victims or their families should sue Mexico. The US should also sue Mexico for all the illegal immigrants coming over their border. I'm sure we can prove a financial harm what with all the costs of arresting them, trying them, housing them, processing costs. Plus the costs to the INS to capture them and send them back. I'm sure there's more. I bet it all adds up to a lot of money.

Whatever happened to personal responsibility? Blame Mexican society for crimes being committed? If Americans were fleeing somewhere (not bloody likely, but work with me) would it be our fault? Suing the Mexican government for illegal immigrants is no different from the demand for slavery reparations.
What difference does it matter if the crimes were horrible or minor? The point is that the process was flawed. I hate people who hate the Constitution, whether they be on the right or left. If evidence was obtained illegally, or if a confession was beaten out of someone, the "evidence" is null and void, as is any conviction obtained with it. If we can end protections for these sorts of things when it is convenient, why can't the liberals take my gun?
