Judge Orders Information Withheld in Border Agents Trial
World Net Daily has this exclusive on the jailed border agents. It appears now that the immunity for the illegal Drug Smuggler allowed him to safely make a second haul of drugs into America. Nice work. Not bad when he is able to help put two border agents in jail and make a haul.
WASHINGTON – Osbaldo Aldrete-Davila, the Mexican drug smuggler given immunity to return to the United States and testify against two Border Patrol agents, was involved in smuggling a second load of marijuana into the United States after he was given court protection, records have confirmed.
Newly released transcripts of the trial of Jose Compean and Ignacio Ramos have corroborated WND reports that the Mexican illegal alien was involved in the second drug case, this one involving a load of marijuana brought into the U.S. in October 2005.
The incident followed his grant of immunity by U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton in return for truthful testimony against Ramos and Compean. The former agents are serving 11 and 12 year prison terms for their actions in a Feb. 17, 2005, incident in which they shot Aldrete-Davila as he was fleeing across the border into Mexico.
It appears that a gag order was issued by the Judge and of course the prosecuter wanted that information to be excluded.
The judge in the high-profile case of two U.S. Border Patrol officers imprisoned after shooting and wounding a Mexican drug smuggler allegedly sealed key testimony and issued gag orders preventing the defendants, their families and trial participants from discussing the smuggler’s involvement in a second drug bust – for which he again was granted immunity in order to testify against the agents.
So… let me attempt to gain the wisdom gleaned by Mexican Drug Smugglers. Come unarmed, provoke the agents and then run for it. Either way you get away or if you get shoot you get a free trip to the US. Perhaps we could just sell the shipment back to the cartel in Mexico and use the money to build that fence. In the meanwhile… how does this afford an opportunity for terrorists who are seeking a way in?
