Ramos and Compean - What was promised the Drug Dealer?

A lawsuit seeking just that information has filed by Judicial Watch. We know just how corrupt the government south of us can be. Just how far reaching is the drug money and who promised what for this testimony. The case smells and most people would suspect that there may be a motive deeper than “protecting” civil rights of drug dealers.

A lawsuit has been filed against the United States government by a watchdog group seeking information about what was promised and delivered to a now-confessed drug smuggler that allowed him to travel back and forth between the U.S. and Mexico after two border agents caught him bringing a third of a ton of drugs into the United States.

The case was filed by Judicial Watch, whose chief, Tom Fitton, told WND there are a lot of explanations needed in the case involving smuggler Oswald Aldrete-Davila and now-former U.S. Border Patrol agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean.

Border Fire has this additional comment on the lawsuit and the goals.

(Incidentally, this is the second FOIA lawsuit filed by Judicial Watch related to the jailed Border Patrol agents. Click here for more information. )

Here’s essentially what we’re after in this lawsuit.
Information pertaining to government deals that were made with the government of Mexico to bring Aldrete-Davila to the U.S. to testify.

Any internal communications between the State Department, the Department of Homeland Security and the Justice Department related to the decision to permit the lawful entry of Aldrete-Davila into the U.S. for medical treatment and for meetings with government prosecutors.

Any and all records of the Diplomatic Security Services (a branch of the State Department) related to the shooting incident.There is enormous public interest in this incident. Many people, myself included, suspect these Border Patrol Agents were railroaded by the government for simply doing their jobs. Given the controversy surrounding the case, the more the American people know, the better.
