Former Border Patrol Agents Jose Compean and Ignacio Ramos FINALLY released From Federal Prison

KFOX TV was the first to report earlier this morning that former border patrol agents Jose Compean and Ignacio Ramos were released from federal prison. Ramos, who has spent the last two years in the Phoenix Federal Prison, accompanied his wife and attorney through Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix. Ramos was released from the prison around 8 a.m. The two agents, who worked out of the El Paso Border Patrol Sector, have been in prison since January 2007. They were found guilty in federal count on numerous charges and each received a minimum of 10 years in prison for shooting an unarmed drug smuggler, then trying to cover it up. On former President George W. Bush’s last day in office, last month, he commuted the sentences for the two former agents. Former agent Jose Compean was released from the federal prison in Ohio around 3 a.m. Tuesday.

    Thank the Lord for Ramos and Compean being released. Political prisoners for sure. These men should have been given medals instead of bars. We have violence on our borders that is getting so fierce that we have no idea what is coming out way. Thank God Glenn Beck is staying on top of it. IF you don’t know, you’ve got your head in the sand.
