Well, Borders Guards are not above the law. They committed a crime, and tried to cover it up, lied, and then refused a deal.
Refusing a deal is more often a good sign that they are not guility as charged. The coverup seems to be from the Bush Administration’s Hispanic Border Patrol Chief and the Hispanic Attorney General. The fact that they are accepting the word of a drug smuggling illegal border invader over their own law enforcement officers is a travesty.
That is not my point however. As a purely political move, I can't understand how Bush can let the Dems get out in front of him on this. Commuting these guys sentence would put him back in the good graces of the base and probably improve his standing among the voting Hispanic population.
How does a Drug Smuggler’s mother have the home phone number of a Border Patrol Agent’s mother and why does he return the phone call to his house?

BULL!!
They informed their superiors and made a full and complete oral report of the event, they followed procedures, for you to say that they committed a crime and covered it up ignores the facts ,, Sutton withheld exculpatory evidence and lied to senators who were looking into this to short circuit their inquiry...
“They committed a crime, and tried to cover it up, lied, and then refused a deal.”
Refused a deal? You mean, because these border agents had the audacity to believe they were innocent as justifies their sentence?
