The NBPC has received information that Border Patrol Agent Ignacio Ramos was sent to a Bureau of Prisons Facility he has no business being in. The facility located in Yazoo City, Mississippi also houses a large contingent of Mexican gang members.
The gang members originally were housed in Beaumont, Texas but were transferred to Yazoo City after causing disturbances in Beaumont. Each shift has only 2 Correctional Officers assigned to it, and the Mexican gang members are effectively running the prison 16 hours per day.
Interviews of inmates at the facility where Agent Ramos was beaten began Tuesday evening at about 6:00 PM. Agent Ramos was beaten on Saturday night. Three days passed before management at the prison decided that interviews of inmates were in order.
There was no doctor on duty at the prison at the time of the assault on Agent Ramos.
The NBPC will endeavor to determine how and why Agent Ramos was sent to Yazoo City, Mississippi and who was responsible for doing so. At this time it appears that according to BOP guidelines Agent Ramos should have been sent to a different facility.
Disgusting.
My opinion is that they shouldn't even be in a facility. Nevertheless, heads need to roll over this.
I don't know how it is now with the prison but it is a little ole hill town, busy as a bee all the time, Haley Barber came from there, the gov of Mississippi, the former head of the pub party.
Dead men tell no tales time.
It appears that CBP is swimming in corruption, and, by association, the Department of Homeland Security as well. This is insane. We are at war.
This was not done by mistake.The same bureaucratic pukes who made sure they were sentenced are sending a PS in their message to the rest of the border guards that not only will they be sentenced to long terms of prison but they WILL be put in danger once they're are in the prison system !!!

We know where this is coming from.
Bush is sending a strong message to BP Agents - don't enforce the law or YOU will go to jail.
It a little scary thinking just how far up this goes.
Reminiscent of Bill Clinton's Whitewater partner Jim McDougall.
Ever since the head of the BP in the south told Bush that the Minutemen were vigilantes, and Bush repeated it, I have thought there are many people, maybe Clinton plants, giving the Pres bad information. This seems a coverup attempt, again typical of Clinton.

It's clear that the wrong people were sent to prison. This story of our corrupt government gets worse every day.
Sounds like Rene Sanchez should be in prison, to me. What business does a man with such a cozy relationship with a drug runner, and a repeat offender at that, have being with the Border Patrol? The only answers I can come up with point to corruption, again.
They dont belong in jail in the first place. However I am surpriesed tihat no one has commented on the conditions at that jail
The jail houses gang members. Bad, BUT these are gang members who have caused trouble in other jails.
Each shift has two correctional officers? How many prisoners must they watch and what do they do lock themselves in ann observation room and hide?
Two officers per shift is plain crazy
The gang members run the prison 16 hours a day. I gue they are locked in their cells the other 16.
My problem is not essentuially why ramos was sent there,but why anyone was sent there. This isnt a prison its a nuthouse. The investigation should be why is any prison allowed to be run in such a manner. This isnt Mexico this is the United States,.This is inexcusable.
Sorry, but that little canard “vigilantes” did not originate with the BP. They have always asked citizens to report illegal activity.
Now the boneheads that were running around with weapons arresting illegal aliens are a different matter.
"This isnt Mexico this is the United States"
The distinction appears to be fading fast. I have no desire to see my country turn into some third world kleptocracy, let alone live in one, but for some crazy reason, that's where we appear to be headed.
