Ex-Border Patrol agents released early from prison - CNN.com

Two former U.S. Border Patrol agents -- whose cases became flashpoints in the controversy over border security -- were released early from prison Tuesday, one of their attorneys and a congressman said.

After March 20, Ramos will be on "supervised release" -- similar to probation -- for up to three years, Botsford said.

Compean had been incarcerated in Elkton, Ohio, said U.S. Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-California. "At last, Ramos and Compean have been rightfully reunited with their families," Rohrabacher said in a statement. "This day is long overdue. I wish the Ramos and Compean families the best as they now try to pick up the pieces and begin to heal from this terrible ordeal."

They shouldn't have been locked up to begin with. They were just doing their jobs.

Great, pick up the pieces along with your convicted felon records and have a nice life, Kthxbai.

The problem was not that they shot at him.
It was that they covered up the evidence, lied to their supervisors, and falsified reports.

They shouldn't have went to jail for that but they should have probably lost their jobs for it.

I still do not see why they thought that hiding evidence and lying was necessary?
Why did they not file a report that they fired on a drug smuggler because they feared for their lives:shrug:

All of TX rejoices. What an absolute travesty that these guys got railroaded in the first place.

Nothing like becoming the example for a very ill political correctness campaign

My dog covers his poop with grass, I'm ok with it. :shrug:

















Should have just gone the proper routes, they've paid for their deed though; probably a good bit more than they should have.
