RSSIts about Time: President Bush Commutes Sentences on Border Agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean
FINALLY!!! We would have preferred it to be a full pardon; however, President George W. Bush has commuted the sentences of Border agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean. The agents were convicted in 2006 of shooting and wounding an unarmed illegal immigrant, as per CNN, suspected of drug smuggling at the time and then covering it up. No, they shot an admitted drug smuggler Osvaldo Aldrete Davila “in the buttocks”. What a sad state of affairs when we have US prosecutors more concerned with illegal drug smugglers rights, than that of our border patrol.
Dana Pretzer of Scared Monkeys radio has previously interviewed Steve Elliot, the President of GrassFire.com who have been instrumental in the petition effort to get justice for Ramos and Compean.
Dana also devotes his Daily Commentary to this subject on Tuesday, January 20, 2009:
It’s about time lame duck GWB did the right thing and ended Compean and Romos’ nightmare.
In his final acts of clemency, President George W. Bush on Monday commuted the prison sentences of two former U.S. Border Patrol agents whose convictions for shooting a Mexican drug dealer ignited fierce debate about illegal immigration. Bush’s decision to commute the sentences of Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean, who tried to cover up the shooting, was welcomed by both Republican and Democratic members of Congress. They had long argued that the agents were merely doing their jobs, defending the American border against criminals. They also maintained that the more than 10-year prison sentences the pair was given were too harsh.
