This seems to be the direction the whole Bush administration is going. Some of the drug cartel money must be getting through to people in high places.

Many Americans are coming to that same conclusion. There's something wrong with the picture when an invading drug smuggler goes free and then sues America while two men doing their jobs get sentenced to prison. They should be hailed as heroes instead.
